Great News - U.S. wind power post slowest quarter since 2007



Boy am I glad that those stimulus dollars are taking America into the future with renewable energy. Oh wait , whats this from Cnet.com U.S. wind power had it's slowest quarter of growth since 2007. Yes you did just read that right and I have the link at the bottom of this post for you to read.

I thought we just passed a stimulus bill which had funds to create jobs in the renewable energy sector? Where are the jobs? Where is the stimulus? This is the perfect time in our history to take advantage of this horrible economic situation our country is in. The government is throwing money at everything in order to create jobs but we are still at almost 10% unemployment. Out of all sectors to be slowing down, Renewable energy? Wind Power? If anything you would think that all the jobs are being created in those sectors and that would be the hottest place to get a job right now.

Never mind remaining a super power we will be lucky if we don't fall further behind over the next 10 years. China is leading the way in wind power and other renewable energy, now if they can do it why can't we? We have to create jobs and stop using fossil fuels right now. It just seems like we are throwing a great opportunity away to make important changes we need to make. We have to make sacrifices and get our country focused on the future and remain relevant in the world or we are going to fall further behind.
