Sorry, I get very very exasperated at this sort of approach.
Reason 1) If progressives in their "green" activities cannot even keep pace with big finance and its "green" activities--we've got trouble.
Reason 2) If it requires "grant" money to be "sustainable" or
"green," it makes a mockery of the "sustainability" movement.
We need to do better than that. Carving out careers for oneself in the new and booming "green industry"--if that isn't the ultimate oxymoron, is not working for a better future, at least in any way I can see it.
