"Swayed by "your grave concerns about uranium mining operations" in the Eastern Navajo Agency in northwestern New Mexico, Navajo Nation President Kelsey Begaye and Vice President Dr. Taylor McKenzie have told community leaders that they now oppose uranium in situ leach (ISL) mining "located in or near populated areas" and conducted in "potable or potentially potable groundwater or surface water sources."

Investment in Renewable Energy Reaches $100 Billion
Greetings, All -- A new report by the United Nations claims that high oil prices and an array of government incentives are leading to soaring rates of investment in renewable energy -- investment that reached $100 billion in 2007.
More importantly:
"The finance community has been investing at levels that imply disruptive change is now inevitable in the energy sector," says Eric Usher, Head of the Energy Finance Unit at the UN. Usher said the UN's "report puts full stop to the idea of renewable energy being a fringe interest of environmentalists. It is now a mainstream commercial interest to investors and bankers alike."

Investment in Renewable Energy Reaches $100 Billion
Washington, D.C., United States [RenewableEnergyWorld.com]
High oil prices and an array of government incentives are leading to soaring rates of investment in renewable energy, according to the United Nations' annual "Global Trends in Sustainable Energy Investment" report.
The UN report calculates global investment capital flows into renewable energy companies reached $100 billion for the first time in history last year. More than $30 billion of the total was the result of mergers and acquisitions led by investment banks such as JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs.
"The finance community has been investing at levels that imply disruptive change is now inevitable in the energy sector," says Eric Usher, Head of the Energy Finance Unit at the UN. Usher said the UN's "report puts full stop to the idea of renewable energy being a fringe interest of environmentalists. It is now a mainstream commercial interest to investors and bankers alike."
The huge investment flows mean that IPO's, largely dormant since the heady days of the technology boom nearly a decade ago, are now re-emerging. A trio of solar companies went public with large returns in 2007, including JA Solar, Trina Solar and Solarfun Power Holdings.
