This Makes This American Proud


What country leads the world in the clean energy race? We do! I think that is absolutely great. We just reclaimed that position from China which led since 2009. Other countries that are leading the way include Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and India; but we lead once again and this is the type of leadership in which we can be justifiably proud.

Over a quarter of the trillion dollars was spend on the development of alternative energy last year; that is a 6.5% increase over 2010. Of that the U.S.A. had investments of $48 billion.  Solar energy saw $128 billion in investment globally about half of all investment in alternative energy. The investments are working; 83.5 gigawatts produced in 2011.
