Will we see the investment bubble on all this crazy renewable energy investments burst soon? This is the topic of New York research firm, Lux Research and their recent findings. According to Lux president Matthew Nordan clean energy investments globally last year was $US1.5 billion, up by a huge 141% $US623 million in 2005. Money came in after fears of peak oil production and the possibilities of new taxes and restraings on efforts related to global climate change. Now the report says that the investment bubble is showing and its not a good sign.
Try to read more out of the article here. I dont want to bee a doomsayer but maybe its worth looking at other prospects like water-cleaning projects as well?

Thanks RR for this pass. I share your concern of a possible sustainable energy bubble resulting in doing too much too fast. Hopefully I will not come to this. Credit to Ifenergy for issuing a timely warning against overheating in the alternative energy sector.
