Researchers at Oregon State University, and
. . . Michigan Technological University, say that about,
. . . 6,500 workers in Wyoming, and
. . . 75,000 nationally coal-industry layoffs, over the next
. . . 15 years, could be retrained and provided full-time careers in,
. . . Solar, and Wind-related jobs.

The solar industry already employs more than
. . . 200,000 people, and
. . . is creating jobs 12 times faster than the overall economy.
