In 2005, Congress decided public land should be used to build enough solar, wind and other sustainable energy projects to power 5 million homes. Yet, almost nothing was done. Real action is now being taken, but the U.S. has “fallen far behind Europe and China, which are investing heavily in the industries that manufacture wind turbines and solar panels.” The New York Times calls on President Obama and the Congress to pick up the pace because “no industry has greater potential to create jobs than clean energy.”
