SuperHeros
Here are our favorite Eco-SuperHeros :
1. Hank Green (link)
founder of Ecogeek.org
I founded EcoGeek because I was tired of arguing about the problems our planet faces, and instead became immensely excited about the solutions. The Blog now gets over half a million pageviews every month.
2. Carrotmob (link)
Carrotmob organizes consumers to make purchases that give financial rewards to those companies who agree to make environmentally friendly choices. For a video of our very first campaign
3. Dr. Larry Brilliant (link)
It’s a matter of human will. And that’s where my optimism comes from, because I’ve seen awful things that were solved by the projection of a positive, and I would say loving, human will.
4. Leyla Kokmen (link)
That’s why the green rights argument is so powerful: It spans public health, community development, and economic growth to make sure that the green revolution isn’t just for those who can afford a Prius. It means cleaning up blighted communities like the South Bronx to prevent potential health problems and to provide amenities like parks to play in, clean trails to walk on, and fresh air to breathe. It also means building green industries into the local mix, to provide healthy jobs for residents in desperate need of a livable wage.
5. Worldometer (link)
World Statistics updated in real time.
6. (and of course) Gandhi (link)
“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”
