Macro-economic Implications of Clean Energy
Good news: After a considerable chain of referrals, I have a really good starting point for my next book. My strategy is to make sure my first interview is with someone who can really take me on a deep dive into the big-picture macro-economics of clean energy (particularly job creation) both here in the US, and internationally as well.
In response to my request to Dr. Robert Pollin, from the Department of Economics and Political Economy Research Institute (PERI) at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst:
Per the voice message I just left for you, I’m working on a follow up to my first book, Renewable Energy – Facts and Fantasies, which was a fairly general survey of the subject of clean energy: I’d like this one to focus on the macro-economic implications, particularly job creation. Do you suppose I could interview you?
Dr. Pollin writes:
Of course I would be happy to speak to you. Great idea for a book. This week is pretty booked already but next week is more open. Let’s find a decent time.
Not only is the guy super-qualified, but I really like his enthusism! Looks like a bulls-eye.
