Easy Policies that will help Our Earth

It's hard to say that completely eliminating pollution is possible, but sustaining the environment from further damage is! With help from the government, Iain Murray and Greg Conko believe these 10 policies will be not too costly and help out with staying green.

1. Eliminate All Subsidies for Fuel Use. This means that we should stop funding the fuel industry so they stop using it and find healthier alternatives.
2. Reduce Regulatory Barriers to New Nuclear Power Plants. These barriers cost them more money, but we should be encouraging them to start up, because they are an energy that will reduce greenhouse gases. 
3. Reduce Wildfires. We could achieve this by amping up the forest management wherever there is a national park of forest preserve. It would also keep the parks clean and healthy so the plants and animals can do their role in keeping the air and water clean.
4. Liberalize Approval of Biotechnology. This is saying that we should accept biotechnology as a science that will help us create new plants and species that will help in climate change.
5. Remove the National Flood Insurance Program. Since this program is the culprit for moving  more people on the coast and in flood plains it should be removed. Higher sea levels and more rainfall will soon be dangerous for people living there.
6. Increase Use of Toll Roads with Congressional Pricing. This will discourage people to drive their car at certain times of the day, decreasing traffic and gases from the cars. 
7. Remove Older Cars from the Road. Replacing them with energy-efficient cars would create less pollution.
8. Reform Air Traffic Control Systems. If a pilot is a allowed to fly a straight route, then it would save the air from being polluted by it's fuel.
9. Remove Regulatory Barriers to Innovation. We should not be charging more money to people who want to replace dirty facilities with greener ones.
10. Encourage Breakthroughs in New Technology. This could be done in a number of ways. Maybe cash prizes or simple awards will motive people to start creating more green technology.
