Environmental innovation holds great promise. But it will take decades for clean-energy technologies to be distributed on a global scale. In the meantime, the global population will increase by 3 billion, the demand for higher standards of living will not abate, and carbon dioxide will be emitted at an increasing pace. Even if we were to stop all carbon emissions tomorrow, the world will still continue to warm up for at least another 30 years...
...ironic that it was President George H.W. Bush who endorsed the amendments to the Clean Air Act in 1990 that allowed the market to demonstrate its efficiency in dealing with air pollution, and yet it's the current President Bush who fights against applying that proven model to tackling climate change. Markets can and do solve public-sector problems. They have raised more people out of poverty than all the aid ever given.

...water woes extend far deeper than mere inconvenience. An estimated 700 million Indians, roughly two-thirds of the population, do not have access to adequate sanitation.

Both the fickle faucets of India’s suburbs and the crisis conditions of its poorer areas stem from the same problematic root: that even in the presence of opportunity and emergency, the Indian government has failed to address the national shortage of clean water.

...candidate - knows how to frame the problem. If you care about America's security first, Orr argues, you want to stop sending billions in oil money to our enemies. If you care about the economy, you want to make sure the U.S. does all it can to create a clean energy sector that could create millions of new jobs. If you're religious, you know that the U.S. - far and away the world's biggest contributor to climate change - has a moral obligation to help the impoverished billions who will suffer first and worst in a warmer future...
...tattoo; but there’s no ink on her body. She’s only singing of the impression said boy has made on her heart. There are no roses or initials etched on Sparks’ shoulder, or at least none that we can see. Instead, squeaky clean and revealing very little skin, Jordin twirls about on a carousel. Images of Sparks on a boardwalk are juxtaposed with “serious” black and white shots of the singer emoting; clearly, she’s a young woman on the brink of a nervous breakdown...
