California's Proposition 23 Will Kill Clean Air, Clean Energy and Green Jobs

California's Proposition 23 Will Kill Clean Air, Clean Energy and Green Jobs

PhotobucketI love some of the metaphors I hear in my travels.  And here’s an apt one, presented this morning by Mike Eckhard, president of ACORE (American Council on Renewable Energy, who hosts the Renewable Energy Finance Forums):

Proposition 23 is like a nuclear holocaust: an event that, fortunately, is unlikely – but if it happens, we’re all dead.

It’s paid for by a couple of oil companies in Texas, and has little support from anyone outside the oil industry – but it’s worded such that, if it passes, it will set clean energy back several decades.  I urge California voters to kill it, lest it kill us.
