Colorado Alternative energy
Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter on Thursday called on the Bush administration, congressional leaders and other officials to do more to foster alternative energy research in Colorado and the West, in part by extending tax credits for investors and producers.
“We can do all sorts of things,” Ritter said, referring to efforts by his administration, private businesses and local groups in Colorado and other states to advance alternative energy technologies and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
But, he continued, “We need help at the federal level. If we don’t alter the conversation at the national levels, all our efforts will be for naught.”
