add to that, 20% energy efficiency that mckinsey talks about in their study. add to that the 188 gigawatts we found in our study. combine that with our 100 years of natural gas that we have in this country. the recent scenario, the market constructs where we could in fact move to a lower carmen transition, utilizing just those -- lower carbon transition, utilizing just those resources. that is where the transition as. the land that it takes to put that wind up, i think that secretary salazar said there are estimates of 100,000 gigawatts of the atlantic coast. we have that. we can take care the area we need to ultimately develop the wind. i think we do have the resources. we to have the land area potentially to develop if we look at all the resources and how they can be combined together. >> as a question of how much land is being used for nobles on shore, you may want to include some of those offshore issues as well. mr. strickland, the president of the american farm bureau testified before this committee. he said there would be winners and losers in the agric
