Do you love your hybrid, fear for the plight of the polar bears, dying to put solar panels on your roof? Then you might be a member of the eco-elite. Not that there’s anything wrong with you,
says Van Jones, but for a green economy to be truly effective, it needs to be more inclusive. This is the thrust of The Green Collar Economy, Van Jones’ new book. The very quotable Jones is up
there among the world’s brightest, seeking a green economy “that is strong enough to pull millions of people out of poverty.” Listen to the podcast of this interview via iTunes, or

David R. Brower was a powerhouse of the American environmental movement—in fact, it’s pretty safe to say that without David Brower, the green movement wouldn’t be what it is today.
Certainly not a man who slept late, Brower founded the Sierra Club Foundation, the John Muir Institute for Environmental Studies, Friends of the Earth, the League of Conservation Voters, and Earth
Island Institute, among others. When David Brower died in 2000, Earth Island created the Brower Youth Awards, honoring six young environmental go-getters each year, whose precociousness is on par
with that of the young Mr. Brower. In addition to being swept off to San Francisco for a big award ceremony, the winners get $3000 and an arsenal of resources with which to carry on their work. This
week we hear from two of this year’s winners. TreeHugger Radio Listen to the podcast of this interview via iTunes, or just click here to listen, right-click to download. Also check out our
