WE ARE IN A RECESSION!!

Now a days, no matter where you are, that generally applies.  With governments and political parties both striving to bolster collapsing economies by any means possible, it’s a great time for the green parties to jump in and join the fiasco. Governments left and right are drafting new bills and stimulus packages in order to stop the economic freefall. This is the time for you green parties to jump in!

We are facing a major overhaul in our economic systems, now get out there and throw your ideas into the bear pit! There is no better time for our governments to start building wind farms, solar farms and endorsing geothermal energy. Investing in businesses that deal with such matters will create jobs and what do you know, they will green our economy and save money in the long term. There is no short-term solution to the recession, so lets think to the future in order to stop the next one from coming.

In Australia, the government is planning on giving out free ceiling insulation to tens of thousands of people over the next years along with their economic stimulus package. Not only will the Aussies be creating jobs in the construction industry, but they’ll also be saving the homeowners money and the government’s money by reducing the amount of electricity being used. These are the kind of plans that we need to set in action here in North America.

I leave you with the question, what are your governments doing in your country/state to initiate a greener economy?
