According to a new report released today by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), investment in the sustainable energy sector was up $148 billion (93 billion euros) in 2007, another sign that public and private organizations are getting serious about green. Wind energy drew $50 billion in new investments, up 40 percent over 2006. China, India and Brazil accounted for nearly a quarter of new investments overall.
The report concluded that clean-energy purchasing is expected to reach $450 billion a year by 2012 and $600 billion a year by 2020.
