The greening of MBA's reminds of this story.

A lady bug couldn't cross a small shallow stream. She saw a tarantula and asked him if he would be kind enough to carry her to the other side. The tarantula agreed and after crossing, the spider lethally stung the lady bug. Before she perished she asked, "Why did you sting me?" He replied, "Because I am a tarantula."

A tarantula is a tarantula. An MBA is an MBA. Greening MBA's will not raise ethics or vituousity. Most of the financial sector is run by MBA's and their motivation is greed.

Benefits provided to the environment by green MBA's would be a welcomed side effect.

When its discovered there is an "under" world below the surface of Mars, the World will be able to ship all the neo-con anti-earth folks there to contemplate their navels - for eternity, or when their homogenized filter air runs out - whichever is sooner.

The Dead-Enders still can't see the logic in preserving the condition of our air, water, and soil, OR conserving our resources, especially the non-renewable ones. Keep on denying so you don't have to change, lazy ones. Unbridled consumerism will be looked upon in the future as a betrayal to our species. Its more than high time for a sea change in business methods and ideology. Our planet's resources are finite, and responsible management is the only way forward.

Try reading the book "The Clean Tech Revolution" to learn how to "invest with a conscience"
very comprehensive

anybody else think there's a contradiction here?

TOO LATE

After George W Bush of the Harvard MBA way of training for business....

He's killed and cooked the Golden Goose of the middle class.

TOO LATE - "Business" will always be linked with "ARBUSTO, Shrub and Fredo".

BUSINESS as usual will be no more.
Because the citizens now know what it's for.
It ISN'T for country it ISN'T for community
It IS about hubris and "Corporate continuity"
It IS about "global" now follow this, please
It IS about "moola" and citizen "squeeze"
It IS about "winning" and "hubris" and such
It IS ALL ABOUT ALPHA - as in 'dog pack'
you know.

Green Business only means that businesses try and make every part of their product is recyclable.
Find new ways of production and of packaging.
Since most stuff is made in China now the Businesses here have to help their contractor find the least toxic way to product a product with recyclable materials.

NASA was forced "to admit it was wrong when it said that 1998 was the hottest year on record" and that NASA "now says 1934 was the hottest year, followed by 1998, then 1921."

Indoctrination

'man-made' global warming is the biggest crock of crap that the counter-culture has ever tried to get over on the consumer.

Here is Teddy Roosevelt, a major environmental figure from 1900. These are some of the words that he does not know the meaning of:

airport

Given all those changes, is there anything Teddy could have done in 1900 to help us? And aren"t we in his position right now, with regard to 2100?

Think how incredibly the world has changed in 100 years. It will change vastly more in the next century.
