The fight for clean and renewable energy many times is argued as the fight against climate change. We as a world are living in an unprecedented climate emergency where history is no longer repeating, but happening. It should be obvious that this is the fight against climate change, but sadly it is not. However, there is so much more to clean and renewable energy; for its also a fight for rural America, the economy, and infrastructure.

Clean and renewable energy should be the cure for rural America. Most of rural America is rural because it lacks industry (other then agriculture). Clean and renewable energy requires nothing except nature and space, parts rural America has an abundance of. Strengthening this one industry would bring a high demand industry to the parts of America that need it most. Plus, clean and renewable energy provides a variety of jobs such as IT, manufacturing, cybersecurity, business, and logistics. Jobs that can spread from outside the actual energy site and into cities across America. Furthermore, clean and renewable energy would strengthen the existing infrastructure by building on to the already in-place electrical grid.
