A Brighter Shade of Green: Rebooting Environmentalism for the 21st Century, by Ross Robertson

Sat, 27 Dec 2008 08:58:14 -0800

From the page: "I knew my days as an eco-extremist were done. What I didn�t know then was that I was com-ing up against a shadow so basic to the character of modern environmentalism, it would take me more than a decade to find my way out from under it. That everywhere my path would take me as a young activist in the coming years�"from a lonely biodynamic cooperative in the farmlands of rural Missouri to the networked high-rises of the San Francisco nonprofit world�"I was walking down a well-worn track toward a dead end. It was only one day last spring, in fact, that I finally figured out what was wrong and what to do about it. That was the day a book called Worldchanging came across my desk and made me proud to call myself an environmentalist again."

A fuller and more personal response to Ms. Dorothy Rabinowitz's attack in the Wall Street Journal | Intent.com

Thu, 04 Dec 2008 08:02:22 -0800

"When I first read Ms. Rabinowitz personal attacks on me as the lead article on the opinion page of the Wall Street Journal, I have to confess that my first reaction was that she was an ethnocentric racist and prejudiced bigot. After some reflection, I realized that she was probably more ignorant than bigoted. I could have let the matter rest there, but aside from the personal attacks, there are a number of factual errors, that, in the spirit of clarity ought to be corrected."

"Typepad had been good to me in all my five years of blogging. But it's time I take full control of my online presence. WordPress is the better choice (e.g. themes, plugins, open source, interface). And there's nothing like tweaking my own site."

From the page: "What the heck is so special about Dick Cheney's official residence that Google feels the need to obscure it? Oh, must the be that secret bunker allegedly built underneath it. But if that's indeed the case, why then is the vice president's home at the Naval Observatory crystal clear on Yahoo Maps?"
