Classes in Renewable Energy Are Enrolling
July 12, 2009 – Jim Tankersley of the Los Angeles Times recently wrote about this situation. Have you or your friends and relatives enrolled in renewable energy curricula? Prepare for a long term career. Vijay K. Dhir, Dean of the Engineering school at the University of California, Los Angeles, said, “We have a shortfall of people to do cutting-edge research and do the innovations we need.” A number of schools including Arizona State University and the University of Colorado say energy and sustainability are the hottest topics for their students. Lehigh University President Alice P. Gast and other university presidents say that to keep domestic students engaged the federal government must sustain its energy research spending. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu says, “You have to start the long-term now.”
Innovation may come from the people. The masses rising up for the greater good.
After many months of advocating for affordable solar in Los Angeles, we are excited to announce that the clean energy future of our community starts NOW.
