Principles

Pennsylvania Business Leaders for a Clean Energy Economy set of principles:

• A national cap on carbon will help to stabilize our economy, while creating new jobs and opportunities for investment.
• Energy efficiency and energy diversity both foster a strong and growing economy.
• The transition to the new clean energy economy will provide both urban and rural communities with significant new market opportunities.
• When it comes to climate change, we must act quickly and decisively to avert the most severe economic and environmental impacts.  The most expensive thing we can do is nothing and the second most expensive thing we can do is delay action.

Pennsylvania businesses have led the way throughout our nation's history. Pennsylvanians launched the railroads that first connected our country for commerce, powered the industrial revolution, and forged the steel that built our cities. It's time for Pennsylvania businesses to again lead the way to new jobs through a clean energy future.
