What is a "green job"? Read this carefully and you will find out that anybody who cleans toilets is classified as being in the "green industry".
"While there seems to be general agreement that green is good, there continues to be a tussle over what exactly green is.

Politicians playing with words they do not understand. Send them back to school for science and ethics classes--they are lacking in knowledge of both.
