    I agree, eco...investing our money with an alternative energy source that is clean and safe is the smart thing to do.

        FPL Group (FPL, news, msgs). I've written about this utility before. The Florida utility is the leading producer of wind power in the United States, with about 30% of the market. At the end of 2007 the company owned 5,100 megawatts of wind-generating capacity. The company plans to add 8,000 to 10,000 megawatts from 2007 through 2012. FPL is also the country's largest generator of electricity from solar thermal power plants. (These plants use sunlight to heat water that then runs turbines that produce electricity rather than generating power from panels of photovoltaic cells.) And it's the fourth-largest producer of electricity from nuclear power in the country. The shares yield 2.6%.
