October 2, 2017

WithNicole Lederer, Jared Huffman, Jon Powers and Michael Terrell

What should business leaders do to compensate for the lack of leadership on renewable energy from policy leaders in Washington?

They need to reframe their responsibility to compel the government to do its job, according to a congressman, Google's head of energy policy and market development and a former White House chief sustainability officer turned renewable energy finance entrepreneur, at a VERGE 17 panel.

Debunking the Myth that Green Jobs are Nonexistent

October 28, 2010

By Nicole Lederer

In the fall of 2000, a small but visionary group of environmental entrepreneurs bet big on our clean energy future. We believed we could create jobs and spur growth by investing in secure and renewable sources of power, new ways to recycle, and the next generation of energy and resource efficient cars, homes and workplaces. A decade later, we're no longer small -- and we're no longer going on faith. The group we founded represents business leaders who've founded 1,100 companies that have created 500,000 jobs in 41 states.
