You only have to look at the trade association web-sites to see the difference. Many of the jobs are created at construction stage and unless there is financing to build- the jobs won't be in big numbers.</p> I am not aware of many redundancies in the UK renewable energy sector however I have certainly noticed the sharp reduction in recruitment in the wind energy industry compared with a year ago.

If your interested please check out our new company WOW GREEN INTERNATIONAL.....I'm pasting an email below. THANKS!!!</p> <p>Hello, My husband is starting a new company called Wow Green International and I wanted to tell you about it so that we can work together to save the planet and stop the energy crisis!</p> <p>I don't want you to think I'm soliciting you in any way but instead I'm trying to educate you on this revolutionary product. Wow Green has created 100% non-toxic cleaning supplies that are made with enzymes. This is NOT your typical green cleaner because the scientists behind Wow Green International have found a way to bottle SEVERAL enzymes in one cleaning solutions, THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE! Since enzymes are inherently cannibalistic no other enzyme cleaner has ever had more than one enzyme contained in their product. This means that the line of Wow Green Cleaners is by far stronger than any other green cleaner out there and even surpasses the leading chemical cleaners!!! This is amazing and is going to be one of the biggest breakthroughs in history! These cleaners are going to revolutionize the Green Revolution and I want you to be a part of it.</p> <p>Not only are these cleaners going to be sold at wowgreen.net but they are also going to be distributed through independent distributors. By allowing people to become independent distributors Wow Green International is not only solving the chemical crisis but the economic crisis by creating an entire new market of jobs! There is NOTHING to sell so this isn't like Mary Kay (and the like) where people are asking their friends and family to purchase products they don't need. This is a situation where people are educating people they care about, about a product they need, in return those people are purchasing the product, thus making a profit for those educators. AND NO these cleaners are not more expensive than products currently on the market, in fact they are competitively priced so that everyone can have a opportunity to GO GREEN!</p> <p>We are launching February 15, 2009 in Detroit MI and would like anyone who wants to attend to be part of the dinner and launch party. Tickets are $50 but we still have some 'free' ones available. Please contact me at wowgreeninfo@gmail.com and check out our website at wowgreen.net.</p> <p>Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon, Melissa Khalil</p> <p>PS We are also on facebook in groups: WOW GREEN INTERNATIONAL</p> Hello I have some GREEN JOBS.
