It is a voluntary effort..but to wait for celebrities to lead the charge is as lazy as the celebrities themselves. So because Jack Nicholson chooses to kickback should not be a reason for the rest to do so. I think ecorazzi does a good job of playing up who is involved and is not dogmatic if a celebrity chooses to be involved in a private manner. I think we need to create more cooperative ventures that are not eco-ego trips but grameen bank style projects that start at the grass roots and are based on economic necessities such as housing.

Jack - you have the money and the public stature to start something like Newman's Own only now Jack's electric cars or Jack's home energy systems. Why not before the bucket time arrives?

His chapter in Don Henley's book to raise money for Walden Woods, Heaven Is Under Our Feet, was all about photovoltaics. Sadly, Henley, never understood what he had... Never "worked" it... dropped the ball. Jack is right, he expresses the feelings of too many out there, who let the whole lot of us work our tails off trying to get a movement in gear, and now that it's full green steam ahead, hey... they want to join the dance... but it's Jack... so of course we're going to say OK... point is, will he sit down with us, be brought up to speed, so his steppin in doesn't break our stride, derail everything?

Our politics are a joke and no one is really tearing into the issues like they need to - but we also don't have a real forum to have the debate we need to have to let people know what their choices are. 100% agreement.
