Through careful research, Ecotech Institute has found statistics that show environmentally related industries to account for over eight million jobs, which in turn helped to generate revenue of $970 billion in 2006 alone. In addition, continued growth is predicted due to President Barack Obama’s Recovery Act Advanced Energy Manufacturing stimulus bill, which promises to allocate $2.3 billion toward clean-energy manufacturing. This has the potential to create 270,000 new jobs. Plus, a report released by the Council of Economic Advisers in January of 2009 projected more than 700,000 new clean energy jobs could be in existence by 2012.
