Crist's Renewable Energy Plan

Charlie Crist on Friday won an important victory in his plans to slash Florida's greenhouse gas emissions and boost renewable energy. The Florida Public Service Commission unanimously agreed to require the state's utilities to generate 20% of their power from renewable resources by 2020, resisting industry efforts to weaken Crist's goal. The vote sets the agenda for state legislators, who will have the final say later this year. [Source: St. Petersburg Times]
