Green jobs guru Van Jones talks about Seattle's carbon neutrality pledge and leadership in the next economy:
For more on why and how carbon neutrality makes sense, you could check out the carbon neutrality talks I gave last November.
Those of us who were in the room know how powerful Van's speech was. I especially loved the powerful moment when a young man stood up during Q&A and asked "How can you insure that I get one of those green jobs?" Part of Van's response was to say that the people who could make that guarantee were in the room with us.
Awesome stuff!
