Green energy: Lots of choice, lots of risk

Has Al Gore got you worried about global warming, but you also think there might be a way to make some money from the soaring interest in environmental issues?

Maybe it’s time to look at investing in some individual companies that are on the leading edge of the green energy revolution.

But investing in these companies is not for the faint of heart. Because of technological uncertainty, fickle government support programs, and an uncertain energy future, most are clearly for risk-taking investors who want to gamble on the chance for big gains in the future.
