Interesting Comparison between New Jersey and the OBX

First found on the Outer Banks Real Estate website.

When I first put forth my thoughts against off shore drilling along the Outer Banks, drill baby drill, was the chant.  Everyone being affected by gas prices above $3 and in some cases $4, were clamoring for increased off shore drilling.  Since prices have fallen we see places like New Jersey embracing Green technology. This is not surprising considering New Jersey’s stance against off shore drilling.

Some ideas in New Jersey are proposed and some are under way.  The Atlantic City wind and wave farm is merely in the planning phase but towns like Stone Harbor are currently looking to install solar power on municipal buildings.  Both ideas bode well for the use of renewable energy.
