Van Jones, founder of the Green for All jobs campaign, asserts that "the idea that it's jobs versus environment is an utter falsehood." Jones, speaking at the Take Back America Conference of the Campaign for America's Future on March 17, 2008, called on the government to get on the side of those trying to simultaneously help our economy and stop global warming. There are more jobs in the clean economy, he said, than in the current polluting one.

    Carbon does not cause global warming, the sun and water vapor are the major factors.

    Global Warming or Global Governance?
