Consider new policy alternatives. Make the economic case for green technology. Embrace a more positive messaging approach. Build new partnerships. These are some of the ideas we talked about in this week's Gang of Four podcast on Earth & Industry Radio.

Last week's podcast was a bit depressing, and we thought it made sense to point out that all isn't lost. We went a little longer than usual this time, but only because we had lots of good stuff to say, right? We'd love to hear your feedback on our ideas - leave a comment here, or you can find any one of the Gang of Four at their other gigs:
