“Green” politicial convention - not so much
Filed under Uncategorized by david brooks at 7:19 am
On another political note … the Democratic National Convention was big on "green" hype, but as this report from CNet notes, had some trouble following through:
- "Bikes aren’t permitted inside the convention’s security perimeter, sogolf carts and other vehicles are used. The wooden card keys provedbuggy, and some were replied with more reliable plastic. Fried mini-donuts were prominently on sale inside the Pepsi Center.Party VIPs and celebrities told their decidedly non-green town cars andGMC Yukon XL mega-SUVs … to idle, with engines and air conditioning on, in the nearby pickup area."
