Leveraging Government Programs: Webinar CrunchEnergy

During the current Administration there is a constant drum beat of 'green' jobs, jobs, jobs, and more jobs while addressing the consequences of violent climate change. 
Over one US$1 trillion has been invested of tax payer money by the American government to support the domestic economy to reduce the loss of jobs while over 15,000,000 Americans remain jobless.
Violent weather events are projected to increase domestically and overseas.
The costs of fossil fuels will continue to increase and have a negative drag on American and global markets.
In  Washington, D.C., Virginia, and Maryland Region over $313 million in Federal stimulus funds have been allocated for energy audits, energy efficiency retrofits, and weatherization projects among other green construction projects.
At last report from the Federal government less than eight percent [8%] of these funds have been allocated and directed to the intended purposes.
