Clinton on Green Job Corps

Oct 12, 2007
Solution: 

Clinton's big vision is to "transform our carbon-based economy into an efficient green economy, creating at least 5 million jobs from clean energy over the next decade." It's not clear how she arrives at 5 million from her plan. She proposes a "green collar" jobs training program that would provide the people most in need of work with green job skills. Her green building fund would create more than 100,000 new "green collar" jobs and her plan to weatherize 20 million low-income also contains promises of good, new jobs.
