Clinton to Start $1 Billion Renewable Energy Fund

antifoidulus writes "ABC news is reporting that former President Bill Clinton has announced the creation of a $1 Billion investment fund devoted to renewable energy. This will be an investment fund as opposed to charity, and Clinton has said that 'The Green Fund would focus on reducing dependence on fossil fuels, creating jobs, lessening pollution and helping to reduce global warming, all while making a profit.' Former World Bank President James D. Wolfensohn will be managing the fund."

We need nuclear now!

[Upaut]

What we need to spend money on is developing a proper nuclear infrastructure. We need reactors, and a lot of them, otherwise we are going to be screwed in a few years. Renewable energy is great and all, but will not be able to sate our unquenchable thirst for energy. We need infrastructure now.

So write to your congressman about building some breeders today. Remember, call then Breeder Reactors, not mentioning the "nuclear" aspect. That makes people much more comferatable. Same way they renamed NMRI's to MRI's.... It makes the common man feel safer...
