The green movement is moving along at a very strong clip right now. Politicians, retailers, advertisers, school children, media of every variety are jumping onto the green train. Even on blogs regardless of what the blogger is writing about green is starting to show up. As a culture or society we are recycling, talking about alternative fuels, working on common sense approaches to everyday problems.
So I am encouraging people to really look around and notice where you see the environmental movement taking hold. And ask questions! Understand why the world around you is changing. When you start to understand and to internalize what you see around you, you will start seeing green. As professionals you need to understand the demand of clients and today those demands are environmental.

And what is working for one (even temperately) may not work for another.
