The Impetus for Renewable Energy

I’ve had so many fascinating discussions on this East Coast tour, it’s hard to know where to begin, and unfortunately, time does not permit me to get into any detail at this point.

Here’s another brief note about my talk with Jerry Taylor of the Cato Institute the other day.  He believes that the push for a migration from cheap and abundant fossil fuels to more expensive renewable energy that can only come about with government support is driven by a Marxist, anti-capitalist, anti-prosperity agenda.

I grant that such people exist, but I believe that the vast majority of the force behind clean energy is coming from people like me: businessmen with a heart.  I’ve been reasonably successful in business over the years, but I recognize my obligation to do the right thing, and leave behind me a high quality planet for future generations to enjoy.  I know for a fact that I’m not alone here; I come across more and more like-minded people every day.

Sorry for the brevity, but I have to run.  Literally.
