Sounds like here, that is if there were really serious initiatives to invest, i.e. 'trickle down con' capitalism.
One need not believe in Climate Change nor causes of, if you put up roadblocks, any type, you're effectively putting the brakes on what had been the human factor of innovation, advancing forward and the intelligence needed to carry that out. What was once, progress, that built the World into all we have today vice the yesterdays!
January 16 2011 - IT seems unthinkable, although perhaps unsurprising, that at a time when the Irish economy is crying out for new investment, government red tape and bureaucracy is putting €17bn of investment in wind energy and green technology at risk.
There have been more than 300 applications for new wind-farm developments since 2007, reflecting the potential that the industry has for growth in Ireland, yet none of the applicants have received any confirmation of when, or indeed if, their applications will be processed.
While the Government has claimed that the green economy is one of the sectors that will lead Ireland out of recession, the outlook for the industry, according to Tim Twohig of Element Energy, is not as positive or a clear cut as is often portrayed.
"On paper everything looks fine; in reality, there's a lack of joined-up thinking and the industry is struggling at present. It's been extremely stop-start over the last while. While we've had two very good years of development, we could now be facing a situation where there's no real development for the next number of years." {continued}
