US official: oil spill shows need for green energy - BusinessWeek: "A senior American energy official said Tuesday the oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico dramatically illustrates the need for investment into renewable sources of energy.
David Sandalow, an assistant energy secretary, spoke during a visit to the capital of the United Arab Emirates, an OPEC member that is pumping some of its vast oil wealth into green technology.
He called the oil spewing from BP's busted well a 'tragic situation' that shows why renewable energy must be a priority in the decades to come.
'It underscores the need for a transition to a clean energy economy,' he said."
