I feel really inspired after reading <a href="http://thinkingbigthebook.com/" rel="nofollow">Thinking Big</a>, especially the essay called An Inclusive Green Economy by Van Jones and Jason Walsh. They suggest a Clean Energy Corps be created that is a combined service, training, and job creation effort, concentrated in cities and struggling suburban and rural communities. Price and the market are too slow to base the shift to a green economy on, we should have a governing body put into place that coordinates green collar efforts to maximize efficiency and opportunity creation for Americans. We need the government involved in creating jobs, not just handing money out to industries.
