It would certainly be better, without a doubt, and I have to speculate on the impacts, but I imagine better jobs. We know that investments in renewable energy are just much better in terms of the job creation potential. There is cleaner air, and communities are further along, having more control over their own energy sources. There are really countless benefits.
If we had taken an opportunity 20 years ago...We have to start today. This is still a reality that we can get to if we work hard.
