"Joel Kotkin, a weekly columnist for Forbes, wrotein theAugust 4thissue about why 'Green Jobs Can’t Save the Economy.' He reported, 'Attempts to put windmills in Nantucket, Mass., the Catskills and Jones Beach in New York and other scenic areas have also been blocked by environmentalist groups. Transmission lines, necessary to take ‘renewable’ energy from distant locales to energy-hungry cities, often face similar hurdles.
