TreeHugger Picks: We Have a Dream
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 01.15.07
As Mike mentioned earlier, today is the celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s legacy in the US. In honor of his famous "I Have a Dream" speech, we'd like to take a moment to consider what TreeHugger might include in a similar forward-looking, future-oriented discourse. Here are our picks for what we have dreams for.
1) We have a dream that compact fluorescent lightbulbs will soon be in every home that has electricity.
2) We have a dream that buying and eating local food will be as commonplace as a trip to the grocery store.
3) We have a dream that bicycles will continue to outsell cars.
4) We have a dream that big companies, like Dell and Wal-Mart, and governments, like the ones in California, Iowa and Colorado will continue to make big strides that help catalyze green growth and inspire others to follow.
5) We have a dream that high profile people like Daryl Hannah and Ed Begley, Jr. will continue to help make TreeHugging cool & hip, giving us all green role models to follow to a green future.
