The Apollo Alliance [1] represents an emerging opportunity in Northeast Ohio. The Alliance, a collaboration of business, labor and environmental organizations, promotes the move toward energy self-sufficiency and higher income jobs. The Apollo Alliance has been working with its local partner, < ahref="http://www.policymattersohio.org">Policy Matters Ohio, to develop an agenda creating good jobs for Ohio citizens. Policy Matters Ohio has released a report that focuses on the opportunity for the state. You can download the report from this page [2]. Recently, William Greider has outlined the challenges for civic leaders to recast their thinking about energy. Read Greider's article here [3].
