Maximum self-sufficiency in our energy requirements with a declining reliance on fossil fuels and non-renewal resources.

Organic fuels, solar energy and new technologies, including the possibility of nuclear energy, eliminating reliance on oil should be given full encouragement by the state.

The fight for ever decreasing oil and other resources is already playing a major role in geopolitical instability. The grab for resources was behind the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kosovo, for example. China and the USA will increase their global push to secure vital resources. New Zealand wants no part of this super-power rivalry.
