Hey DU,

I'd be interested in opinions on the ideas presented in this article.




Make the Greenleap
by Charles Shaw, Editor-in-Chief

Green politics & policies are about much more than just ecology and Ralph Nader. They are about replacing wasteful consumerism and a passive system of governance with a holistic, sustainable approach that incorporates social and environmental demands into national security and global trade policies.

1. Yup, it hits the main points, all right!

"...but the sun, that was within living memory
a warm friend not a burning enemy,
is an alarm clock without a snooze button."

After all, what can ANY party say about that? I personally think the switch to the Petro-Euro will force us to make the Greenleap faster than anything else.
