Small business owners support Obama’s clean energy and environmental policies, poll shows
By J.D. Harrison, Published: June 27
Most small business owners support some of the climate control and clean energy plans outlined this week by the Obama administration, according to a poll released Thursday.
More than three-fourths (79 percent) of small employers think the the government should set a national goal to increase energy efficiency by half over the next decade, and nearly twice as many believe government incentives for clean energy innovation should be a high or top priority than believe they should be a low or non-priority.
The results are part of a report released by the American Sustainable Business Council, a business advocacy and research organization. David Levine, the group’s chief executive, noted that most of the responses did not vary based on respondents’ political persuasions.
