Clean Energy Is Winning in the U.S. — Letters to the Editor - WSJ.com

Gee - I read a lot of the new clean energy magazines - I haven't a clue where Markey gets his data - but it sure reminds me of the old saying 'figures lie and liars use figures'.

One also can't help but see that if 'clean energy' is a 'minor' part of the total energy picture (supplying the energy needs of Americans - whether petrol for cars or electricity for homes and factories, etc.), then, if the industry employs more people than convention means of providing energy - there has to be 2 big questions:

1) The salaries must be very much lower;

and/or

2) The sector must be vastly 'less' productive (more people and less energy).

Either way, Markey seems to be validating exactly what he trying to disprove.
