GREEN ECONOMY BASICS
Avoid the insanity of business as usual:
Dead-end jobs Inferior work Expensive energy Environmental
redlining
Leverage green to the greater good by asking:
Who makes stuff; and how
Who does the work; and under what conditions
Who has access to training; and of what sort
Do No Harm Make Life Better

Will working families have access to its promise?
They can and will, but only if the promise of shelter is broad in conception and equitable in delivery.
If we invest in all workers and all communities, creating high quality, family-supporting, green(er) jobs; and constructing accessible pathways into them.
