Labor-environmental alliance calls for more 'green' chemical manufacturing, jobs

Labor-environmental alliance calls for more 'green' chemical manufacturing, jobs MLive.com
"The Bluegreen Alliance was formed in 2006 mainly between labor unions and environmental groups.
....Worker safety, he said, is a big part of the group's thrust.
So is new employment.
Among the study's more surprising findings is that if 20 percent of current production nationwide were switched from petrochemical-based plastics to bio-based plastics, 104,000 additional jobs would be created in the U.S. economy."

So this is the new alliance that will bring in new jobs, the business hating eco-nuts and the business destroying unions.
And their study "proves" going eco-nutty creates 104,000 new jobs.....producing the same amount of product.
Econo-ignorance is a disease?
