More funding in renewables will attract more talented people who can earn what they are worth. In less than a decade we went to the moon because the funding was sufficient to garner highly skilled people.
In 2013, $13.8 billion went to ALL renewables and efficiency programs, while the already hugely profitable fossil fuel and nuke corps. got $5.5billion! ALL federal energy subsidies should go to renewables and this will certainly quicken improvements, innovations and inventions, and speed up the time process for us to need to rely on fossil and nuke fuels.
We must not have to help fund the highly profitable and polluting fossil and nuke energy corporations!
