The Hybrid Car- how it can be made more affordable, why it should be made affordable and why the government isn't doing more to promote its use right now.
Science-
What is the effect of cars on the road- how much do car emissions contribute to global warming?
How do hybrid cars work? What parts of Hybrid cars are expensive, are there cheaper versions of these parts?
How effective would a full switch to Hybrid cars be on reducing global warming? Is it worth it? Are there other options to fix the car problem?
Economics-
What could be done to convince suppliers to create more hybrid cars?
How can we increase the demand for hybrid cars?
What resources do economists need to create these cars?
How does the European/Asian car market compare to the American car market relative to the sustainability of the cars produced?
What would the effect be of increasing hybrid car production on the national and world market?
Would jobs increase or decrease?
Would people travel more or less? What would be the effect on infrustructure?
Politics-
How is the relationship between the government and oil companies effect hybrid car production? How can the government make hybrid car production more effective and profitable?
How could one convince the government to make an investment in the hybrid car market? Which party would support this investment more? Who would vote for it? How could the idea be sold to the voting public?
How do oil and hybrid lobbyists effect the governments decisions and agenda?
Who should we vote for in 2008 in regard to this issue?

Great topic and outline. Glad to see so much progress.
Good that you include the various areas that go with science to give the whole picture needed to make a decision.
Under science, how about prospects for improving the technology of hybrid cars?
