The Power of Green (Dale)
Last year, we wrote that "the inconvenient truth of Neil Young's Greendale is that it's message is even more relevant today than upon its original release in 2003."
In a major article in Sunday's New York Times, Thomas L. Friedman argues that going green can be the basis of a new unifying political movement for the 21st century:
One day Iraq, our post-9/11 trauma and the divisiveness of the Bush years will all be behind us — and America will need, and want, to get its groove back. We will need to find a way to reknit America at home, reconnect America abroad and restore America to its natural place in the global order — as the beacon of progress, hope and inspiration. I have an idea how. It’s called “green.”
If you understood Neil's message in Greendale, than I urge you to read this article. I'm sure that Edith, Earl and Sun Green would all agree.
