Why People?
Whatever you call it — social responsibility, sustainability, being green, social justice, environmentalism, climate change, ecology –

If reading that line doesn’t immediately ring true to you, it’s possible that we’ve gotten so caught up in the details of “living green” that we’re missing the big picture (”can’t see the forest for the trees,” as the old saying goes). The purpose of reducing our CO2 emissions and reducing global warming is to save a nice clean earth for our future generations — for people! At the same time we’re watching out for them, we also have the opportunity to watch out for people living right now who could use our help.
