SiliconBeat: Billionaire green entrepreneurs; the sweet Loremo & SF's cleantech competition

SiliconBeat does a great job of summing up some of the interest here in the valley around new green technologies.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, businesses "get it" and green technologies are a key path to a sustainable future. We need the government (especially this polluting administration) to get out of the way.

For example, given the concerns about the environment and our addiction to foreign oil, and witnessing the potential behind green technologies, how can you possibly explain why the pork-barreled, lobby-slave, Mr. Bridge-to-Nowhere Don Young (R-Alaska) is trying to block the creation of America’s first large-scale offshore wind farm in Cape Cod???

Oh wait… I think I’ve answered my own question.

I completely agree. I just saw that Kleiner Perkins is putting $100 million into a "green" fund in China.
