The importance of a green economy

Green For All's new video focuses on the importance of a green economy to help provide a pathway out of poverty for millions.

Tue, Aug 11 2009 at 3:21 PM EST

 
Green jobs, specifically those that are in the clean energy industry, have repeatedly been touted as part of the solution to today’s economic and environmental crises. Green jobs have the ability to provide a pathway out of poverty for millions of underemployed and unemployed Americans.
 
Green For All has just published a video that visually shows the importance of a green collar economy. The old adage states that a picture is worth a thousand words; this video tells more than I could with simple text and I encourage you to watch it as well as share it with others.
