Meanwhile, the stock market has plunged and people are fearful about the economy. However, in New Mexico, there are so many clean, distributed and renewable energy opportunities that could give people jobs locally and help boost governmental revenues. That would be the better path. Yet, Pat Lyons gives the same old knee jerk call to "drill, baby, drill" and "mine, baby, mine."
