in these sectors instead of trying to bolster dirty energy jobs, especially when they employ fewer people. I assume thats his point, anyway.



https://thinkprogress.org/clean-energy-more-jobs-than-fossil-fuels-32f615915399

"Nationally, clean energy jobs outnumber fossil fuel jobs by more than 2.5 to 1, according to a new Sierra Club analysis of Department of Energy jobs data. And when it comes to coal and gas — two sectors President Donald Trump has promised to bolster through his upcoming executive order on energy regulation — clean energy jobs outnumber jobs dealing with those two fossil fuels by 5 to 1."

"Just under 374,000 people were employed in solar energy, according to the report, while coal, gas and oil power generation combined had a workforce of slightly more than 187,000."
