Energy & Environment
Bill supports a balanced approach to utilizing Louisiana’s prized natural habitats.
According to the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources, roughly twenty-four square miles of land were lost every year between 1990 and 2000 in Louisiana to coastal erosion. Over the next fifty years, the state is expected to lose another five hundred square miles of land. Bill is working to restore Louisiana’s coasts and protect coastal Louisiana from hurricanes and erosion.
Bill is also a strong supporter of alternative energy technologies, like solar power, biofuels, and ultra-efficient vehicles, which will improve the environment and contribute to America’s energy security.
