President Obama says he will create five million new green collar jobs with his $150 billion "Apollo Project." The trouble is, nobody can really say what this means. Presumably people in green employment will reduce energy consumption and lessen our environmental impact on the planet. So, is building wind generators a green activity? It takes the same amount of steel as 200 automobiles, and it takes coal to make steel. Are coal and steel green? Are we confident these green enthusiasts know what they are talking about?
