  CampusProgress.org | Crib Sheet: Clean Energy
A clean energy future will rely not just on a diverse mixture of renewable energy, but also on energy efficiency- the quickest, cheapest way of improving our energy supply and reducing the need for new polluting power plants.
According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, a renewable portfolio standard of 20 percent by 2020 would create 355,000 new jobs in the manufacturing, construction, operation and maintenance of new renewable energy structures and plants – nearly twice as many jobs as building new fossil fuel plants to supply the same amount of electricity.
Clean energy can particularly help alleviate health problems in some of America’s poorest communities where asthma and other respiratory illness rates are highest.

By increasing renewable energy use, the Clean Energy Blueprint would provide an important economic boost to farmers, ranchers, and rural economies.

Renewable energy use would be 75 percent higher under S. 1333 than under the Clean Energy Blueprint, because higher electricity demand due to less investment in energy efficiency and combined heat and power plants means more renewable energy is needed to reach the targets.
