As Euros kick green energy habit, enviros spend $3M pushing for us to pick it up

06/02/10

Check out this new ad, cut by one group on the left and one on the right:

 

Republicans for Environmental Protection and the Truman National Security Project are spending $3 million to put this on the air.

The ad strikes me as something from a parallel universe, characterized by denial of reality. The Europeans are taking our clean energy jobs? Yes — and each “green job” costs them 2.2 two real jobs, according to a new report from Spain’s Socialist government.

At that price, we should be offering them as many of “our clean energy jobs” as they like.
