Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act and the 2009 Recovery Act focus on promoting energy efficiency and reducing energy consumption, particularly through incentives for the use of more efficient lighting, appliances, and buildings. The acts do not discourage exploration for fossil fuels or the construction of new nuclear power plants and actually include provisions for increasing the use of renewable energy sources. Additionally, the acts set higher fuel economy standards through Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) regulations for motor vehicles. Therefore, Choice D, which focuses on promoting energy efficiency in lights, appliances, and buildings, is the best choice.
