"The United States green economy now employs 10 times more people than the fossil fuel industry, providing nearly 9.5 million jobs."

"The green economy is worth a total of $1.3 trillion, contributing to a substantial chunk — 7 percent — of the U.S. GDP."

"As the world heats up, so does the market demand for green energy and technology."
