Here are some links that might be helpful.
Hillary Clinton pledged in her launch speech to make America the clean energy superpower of the 21st century.
Hillary also released two bold goals to make America a clean energy superpower, as part of a comprehensive energy and climate agenda:
First, to have more than half a billion solar panels installed across the country by the end of her first term.
And second, to generate enough clean renewable energy to power every home in America within 10 years of taking office.
She promised to build on the progress made by President Obama by defending and fully implementing the Clean Power Plan.
And she announced plans for a Clean Energy Challenge to help cities, states, and rural communities go even further.
And released a comprehensive plan to modernize our entire energy infrastructure by making existing energy infrastructure safer and cleaner and unlocking new investment resources.
Hillary spoke out against coal companies who tried to shirk health and pension obligations:
And released a $30 billion plan to ensure that coal miners and their families get the benefits theyve earned and respect they deserve, to invest in economic diversification and job creation, and to make coal communities an engine of U.S. economic growth in the 21st century as they have been for generations.

(7,865 posts)There is no indication of how she wants to go about this plan.
Is she actually going to put money towards renewable?
Is she going to require a percentage of all government buildings to make use of renewable energy sources?
Is this just going to be another tax incentive?
How is she going to go about it.
Two goals stated in carefully worded speeches aren't plans.

(50,319 posts)Bernie has been a supporter of PP for his entire adult life and everyone knows it. Apparently Bernie misspoke . . . not unlike a certain person who claimed to be under attack in Bosnia.
