There are 1-2 good Chinese solar companies, but other than that what examples do you have? The US has never been a strong central government country, that is a concept that is tough for most non-Americans to grasp. And the US government does support student research projects that have lead to numerous companies and patents, like the EPA P3 competition. The US and state governments have also spurned plenty of "green" R&D by enacting and actually enforcing environment related laws. www.liquidassetdevelopment.com Tue, 21 Oct 2008 02:30:23 +0000 http://www.chinadialogue.net/article/summary/2470#comment-7943 http://www.chinadialogue.net/article/summary/2470#comment-7943 I think in certain resepects China is pulling ahead of the US in terms of green technologies, and certainly in governmental support for them. It is interesting that the 'green jobs' philosophy found in Van Jones' new book 'The Green Collar Economy' is already being put into practice in China in many ways. I think it is also important to note that Obama has mentioned in the debates a desire to develop new green technology and license it for use in China to enable decarbonized development. i think this is a very bold move and a really excellent one, as long as it works both ways.
