In Case You missed It…..


Telsa Motors has unveiled the prototype of the Model X, an all electric family car set to be released in early 2014.   Continuing the tradition of Tesla, the vehicle will focus on performance and sleekness.  It will go 0-60mph in under 5 seconds, have a couple different battery options, and have three drive-train options (rear, all & performance).  If that’s not enough, it will even have doors that open up like falcon wings!

The United States led the way towards a new record of $260 billion for global investment in the clean energy sector.  In 2011, the U.S. alone beat the 2004 global total, with investment increasing 35% to $55.9 billion.  Meanwhile, China’s investment leveled off at $47 billion for 2011, making U.S. the world leader again.
