Provocative, personal, and inspirational, New York Times best-seller The Green Collar Economy is not a dire warning but rather a substantive and viable plan for solving the biggest issues facing the country--the failing economy and our devastated environment. From a distance, it appears that these two problems are separate, but when we look closer, the connection becomes unmistakable.

Van Jones is a dynamic speaker, funny and extraordinarily compassionate. I'm impressed with his participation in Clinton's Global Initiative and his desire to employ a movement to save not just "polar bears but to save Pookie too". I can't wait to read the book.
And I'm glad I discovered Green Gigs, too!
