Clark Endorses Apollo Alliance (Alternative Energy)
Edited on Wed Jan-14-04 11:06 PM by cryingshame
For Immediate Release
Date: January 14, 2004


Clark Applauds Apollo Alliance
"I applaud the efforts of the Apollo Alliance to combine the insight, interests and passion of our nation's labor and environmental movements. The 'New Energy for America' report released today sets forth a bold vision of a future in which clean energy and advanced technology improve the quality of life for all Americans.

Like the Apollo Alliance, I believe that government must play an important role in encouraging technological innovation. Nowhere is this role more critical than in the field of advanced energy technology. Under President Bush, the United States has lost more than 2.5 million manufacturing jobs. During this same period, greenhouse gas emissions rose, oil imports increased, and a massive section of our electricity grid fell. This pattern of neglect must end.

Advanced energy technologies like fuel cells, efficient automobiles, clean coal technologies, and intelligent electricity transmission grids are essential to ensuring America's prosperity in the 21st century. I look forward to working with the Apollo Alliance members to create a strong and secure America in which our talented labor force is hard at work building a clean and safe future for our children."

.........................................................................................................................................................................................

The Apollo Alliance is building a broad coalition within the labor, environmental, business, urban, and faith communities in support of good jobs and energy independence. The Alliance is developing public education campaigns and communications strategies to link allies and build a national constituency for a bold, broad based, and immediate program of public policy.

Why is it called the Apollo Alliance? Like JFK's Apollo Project, which put a man on the moon in under a decade, an Apollo Project for energy freedom must be big, bold and fast.

1. I think your link should read....
http://apolloalliance.org

That said as a Clark supporter this news release confirms my support for the General as a Presidential candidate. Can you imagine the two oil industry whores G DUHbya and Penis Cheney endorsing this group.

I wonder if Howard Dean thinks this is another example of Wesley Clark being a Republican?

2. I'm glad attention
is being brought to this worthy project (far MORE worthy, IMHO, than a trillion $ plan to put a man on Mars)! I hope the other candidates speak up on this issue as well.
