The Finance Secretary Mr. John Swinney announced that the Scottish Government is planning a substantial development in green energy employment, leaving environmental groups sceptical.

This move should help curb the recession and guarantee improved economy for the future.

During a conference in Glasgow Mr. Swinney announced that these renewable technology projects should create 16,000 jobs over the next 10 years as well as boost production and considerably improve consumer charges.

Scotland will be a leader in the battle to preserve the planet, in proposing a global renewable industry with the exploitation of power from wave, wind and water technology.

These new forms of energy will considerably help reduce carbon emissions and decrease dependency on fossil fuels.

The Scottish government deems it crucial to follow any possible means in order create a new form of wealth during these difficult economic times.

The increase of sustainable economic growth goes hand in hand with the respect of the environment and our natural resources.

The secret to Scotland’s economic and ecological success of the future lies in the investments created today.

Lord and professor, Nicholas Stern underlined that these plans should include a substantial investment in home energy improvements as 0.8% of GDP, amounting to £650m for Scotland, is needed without delay.
