Wind Turbine Economics
One week in Denmark, home of the modern wind turbine, would convince you that manufacturing a product which the rest of the world is going to need by the hundreds of thousands, for the next half-century at least, is a proven way to provide jobs for the country's workers. Not only jobs, but lifetime careers.
The only economic engine that can truly lift America's economy, and the world's economy, out of our present recession is the engine of building clean energy products. Look at what needs to be built: wind turbines, solar collectors, tidal turbines, a modern continental grid, and a new generation of electric public transportation, from sea to shining sea. That is a program as urgently needed today as President Roosevelt's great programs during the Depression.
Put the nation to work . . . by building products that truly make sense for our children.

This is truly the only way forward to "keep the lights" on and social stability (giving young people something productive to do). A legacy of clean electricity is something to be truly proud of and far better than a landscape of things like mountain tops removed, mine tailings, and leaking spent fuel pools. I look forward to the day when we finally do realize this.
