So-called "green" initiatives aren't a panacea but a step in the right direction, says Joseph A. Stanislaw, a senior advisor to Deloitte LLP and founder of the JA Stanislaw Group LLC.

Rather, he feels they can provoke a necessary next phase of global development in energy and economic sectors.
In a recent paper, he focused on the three interconnected mandates driving clean-energy evolution in the United States: environmental protection, creation of sustainable jobs and enhanced national security.
