BushGreenwatch - tracking environmental misdeeds

From the folks at MoveOn.org comes BushGreenwatch, a site devoted to exposing the Bush administration's words and actions on environmental policy. While I never intended Sustainablog to be primarily political, we're living with the most anti-environmental White House of which I'm aware; political knowledge and action is more important than ever. The Bush administration's policy is taking us backwards just when many corporations and small businesses are recognizing the economic value in sustainability and environmental restoration. We've got to keep at our representatives and senators. Write, call, and let them know that business as usual can't/won't continue, and that companies such as Interface, Patagonia, IKEA and many, many others are showing that green isn't just responsible, but also profitable.
