US President-elect Barack Obama has picked Steven Chu for his energy secretary. He is a Nobel winner in physics. He is the director of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and is an energy specialist. Some of the other members of Mr. Obama’s energy team that were recently picked are:
-Carol Browner: will co-ordinate a council on environmental change
-Nancy Sutley: Head of the council on environmental quality
Mr. Obama has made climate change one of his top priorities, stating that we must “move beyond our oil addiction and create a new hybrid economy.”

I think this new direction holds a lot of opportunities for the United States to invest in new areas for increased growth. If a full alternative energy source can be found, the potential to be the economic front runner again is very bright. If the men at the top can start pushing hard enough, then the markets will finally start to full, especially if they are looking for that bailout.
