The document discusses the benefits of renewable energy in the 21st century. It outlines various renewable energy resources like biomass, solar, wind, and hydroelectric. It provides a timeline of California's goals to generate electricity from renewable sources, requiring 20% by 2010 and 33% by 2020. The document also notes that a shift to renewable energy will create jobs, boost economic development, and provide savings through lower utility bills and carbon reductions equivalent to taking many cars off the road.
