When an expert says something, you gotta listen. And, so, experts are saying that Michigan's economic future is in alternative energy, energy efficiency measures, and climate-change solutions. Not only will these points help bring Michigan out of it's flickering economy but they'll also help the world.
What sounds better than helping yourself
and helping the world? Nothin', that's what.
Excerpt:
Michigan's economy could be substantially buoyed by
60,000 or more "green jobs" in response to renewable energy production,
increased energy-efficiency measures and other climate-change
solutions, according to Michigan and national experts from such
organizations as the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy
(ACEEE) and the Erb Institute for Global Sustainable Enterprise at the
University of Michigan.
The experts cautioned
business leaders, policy makers and the news media to take with a grain
of salt the expected denial of global warming science and "economic
alarmism" likely to be central themes at a U.S. Chamber of Commerce
event to be held Tuesday in Detroit. For more information on what is
