Nat Goldhaber, a co-founder of venture capital firm Claremont Creek Ventures and managing director of its clean technology investments, told participants at the AlwaysOn GoingGreen 2011 conference in San Francisco on Wednesday that China is much more aggressive than the United States in developing clean technology projects and could dominate clean technology development globally.
Goldhaber made his remarks during the last day of the conference in a presentation entitled, “Will China Clean Our Clock in Cleantech?” ...
But the race for clean technology supremacy is not over, Goldhaber said. He said the United States is very entrepreneurial and has a fierce desire to create new and better technology, including clean technology. Further, the United States actually benefits from low-cost Chinese solar panels, which allows it to more easily accomplish alternative energy goals.
Goldhaber said U.S. clean technology development must be enhanced by streamlined regulations and permitting, continued tax incentives, and by much easier immigration policies for foreign graduates from U.S. universities. This would allow more engineering and science graduates to stay in the United States after graduation and contribute to American technological innovation

Can you make the arrows build one at a time from a point and then extending to the arrow-head so the eye follows to the great wall? Or whatever method you thin g will get the most attention. Can you increase contrast of the pic so wall shows better?Made of concrete, the dam is 2,335 m (7,661 ft) long, and the level of the dam top is 185 metres (607 ft) above sea level. The project used 27,200,000 cubic metres (35,600,000 cu yd) of concrete (mainly for the dam wall), 463,000 tonnes of steel (enough to build 63 Eiffel Towers) and moved about 102,600,000 cubic metres (134,200,000 cu yd) of earth.[21] The concrete dam wall is 181 metres (594 ft) high above the rock basis.

Come senators, congressmenPlease heed the callDon't stand in the doorwayDon't block up the hallFor he that gets hurtWill be he who has stalledThere's a battle outside ragin'.It'll soon shake your windowsAnd rattle your wallsFor the times they are a-changin'.
