Energy Efficiency as Economic Stimulus
In their Memo to the Next President,  co-authors Daniel Sosland, Derek Murrow, and Samuel Krasnow outline how government investment in energy efficiency could stimulate the economy. The authors propose measures for the next administration to encourage energy efficient programs and outline how spending on efficiency is cheaper than efforts to increase energy supply.  The Memo also examines how a shift towards efficiency spending will create new jobs at a time when job losses continue to climb.
