Boone for Texan of the Year!

The Texas Monthly Magazine is the premier magazine of its type in the Lone Star State. Editor-in-chief Evan Smith has written an op-ed piece about Boone Pickens suggesting that he be named the Dallas Morning News “Texan of the Year.”

Mr. Smith’s blog “T. Boone Pickens is my pick for Texan of the Year” is an honest and humorous look at Boone and Boone’s work for and in Texas.

“The energy magnate,” Smith writes, “could have chosen to sit on his behind, watch his beloved Oklahoma State Cowboys thrash around on the football field, and generally enjoy life. Instead,” Smith continues, “he decided to write yet another memoir – his third – and to promote, with great fanfare, his eponymous plan to reduce and hopefully eliminate America’s dependence on foreign oil through wind turbines, natural gas-powered cars and the like.”

Opening up the Transition means listening to your ideas and stories and providing a window into how the process works. To give you a look at how we're approaching some of the nation's most pressing issues, we filmed this meeting of our Energy and Environment Policy Transition Team and interviewed team member Heather Zichal. Watch the video, then tell us your story, which energy and environment issues are important to you, or what actions you'd like to see an Obama-Biden administration take.: http://www.change.gov/page/s/energyenviro Discussion: Energy
