Obama Is In. What’s First For Green Tech?
by Jason Wilk on November 5, 2008

- Obama has the potential to bring significant federal support of clean technologies, a unified international fight against climate change and a necessary buildout of U.S. energy infrastructure.
- The clear favorite for green tech investors (6 to 1 over McCain), Obama pledged to invest $150B over the next ten years in alternative energy, reduction of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050 and a new cap-and-trade system to manage carbon emissions.
- It’s a perfect time to begin investing in renewable energies with the amount of jobs it will create and the potential it has to thrust America forward in the lead on saving the environment. (after all, we are the leader in emissions)
- What will be the first big push for green when he reaches the White House?
