According to the Labor Department’s monthly report released Friday, first time claims for unemployment benefits have reached its highest level since the period after 9/11. Most of the jobs lost are in manufacturing and construction areas.
So in this jobs recession, Google’s energy plan unveiled last Wednesday appears even more attractive.
“Our energy proposal will generate a million high skill, high wage manufacturing jobs, in rural areas where the biggest problems are and where the supply of labour is there but the jobs are not”, said Google CEO, Eric Schmidt.
According to Schmidt, the Google energy plan will particularly benefit areas like Pennsylvania, Wyoming, West Virginia and Rural Texas.
“If you think this is a jobs’ programme, I love it! High paying American jobs, people who pay taxes and who currently are suffering through some pretty difficult times”.
Tough to pass on a proposal that saves the planet, reduces energy costs and creates high paying jobs! But is it too good to be true?
Here’s a video excerpt of Google’s CEO talking about how his energy plan will also create jobs:
