Urban Ecology News. 2007.11.1
The shift to a green economy is the biggest economic opportunity facing the United States since the military build up to World War Two, says Bill Clinton.
Clinton, speaking at the US Conference of Mayors' Climate Protection Summit, said:
Initiatives to combat global warming, such as the retrofit of old buildings, and switching to more fuel-efficient cars, will create jobs and boost wages.
America must prove to China, India and other developing nations that addressing the climate change problem will stimulate their economies.
