In particular, they are descending on Capitol Hill to illustrate the importance a strong limit on carbon emissions has on future investments and job growth. Entrepreneurs, business leaders and investors who support strong climate and clean energy legislation are convinced that a limit on emissions is the only market-based tool that will create the kind of demand needed to create new business opportunities and jobs for America They see it as vital to long-term economic competitiveness, as clean energy will unleash a flurry of new investments leading to the creation of new jobs and the restoration our country’s technological edge. Executives from the following companies are in Washington right now, representing Indiana interests: Axis Architecture, Indianapolis “The United States has all the tools to be the global leader in the clean energy marketplace,” said Dan Bates, president and CEO of Wind Stream Technologies, a manufacturer of small scale wind turbines that is adding 260 high-paying jobs to Southeast Indiana’s economy. “Thousands of business leaders like me know that unless we move quickly, we risk losing the progress we’ve made on clean energy technology.” The business leaders visiting Washington say limits on carbon emissions are fundamental to create the kind of long-term market signal for widespread investment in clean energy technologies and the jobs that will follow as a result. “We represent a growing number of businesses, both big and small, that want solutions, not band aids, to the economic problems we now face,” said Mike Neibler, CEO of Xylogenics, which is commercializing a breakthrough technology that improves ethanol production by 50 percent. “With the investments that come with comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation, our companies will continue to expand and that means more jobs for the Hoosier state and a boost to Indiana’s bottom line.” TINA D.
