Green bubble? I think not - Texas approves $4.9 billion wind project

More evidence for those who think the current state of green affairs is an impermanent bubble!

Utility officials in Texas voted 2-1 to give preliminary approval to a $4.9 billion plan to create wind energy infrastructure that would carry power from windy west Texas to urban areas like Dallas. Experts are calling it the largest investment in clean and renewable energy in U.S. history. How’s that for a bubble?

“Supporters predict the plan will spur new wind power projects, create jobs, reduce pollution and lower energy costs.”

I think ecopreneurs know an opportunity when they see one :)
