Feeling down? Lighten up with a Daily Bright Spot.

Does it feel like all you hear about these days is a bad economy and a troubled environment that in turn contributes to a bad economy (the oil spill – the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history – is casting a pall over the Gulf economy, possibly to the tune of 17,000 lost jobs and $1.2 billion in lost growth by the end of this year).  Well ,here in California we have some good news: California’s clean energy policies are creating a bright spot in our economy.  By paving the way towards a clean energy future, these policies are attracting cleantech venture capital to our state in unprecedented amounts and putting Californians to work building renewable energy and improving energy efficiency.
