Not Red & Blue, but Red, White & Blue - and GREEN

I found this article in the New York Times Magazine. It is by The World Is Flat author Thomas Freidman. Here's the link (it's also in the title):

Global Climate Change is real. No one will convince me otherwise. Even if you disagree, the article is worth reading. It examines how the US can overcome a slip in our perceived international standing by embracing things Green. We can lead the way, and Freidman argues, even coerce China, India, and Brazil - the leaders in the post-developing world - to do likewise.

All in all, a well reasoned argument with a proposed solution. I'm sure it's not perfect, but it is better than anything that anyone else is trying right now.
