Words to help change mindsets (both from public opinion + politicians) Actions to set the example and give people something they can copy But overall, I think it's about time somebody spoke up and said current efforts by big companies are just not sufficient to tackle the scale of the problem. There's too much green fluff around (I watch cnn.com quite often, and all I see there are green ads from big corporate America, it's non-stop). The green corporate fluff hinders people from seeing the real scale & depth of the problems ahead. charles, I think we need mix of words + actions.
