What’s your green wish for 2009?My green wish is for world leaders to quickly negotiate a new Protocol for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and to give it some teeth. (Meanwhile, I wish for environmental activism on the ground to continue to spread.)If you have any other greetings, please feel free to add them.The AIR staff in Guatemala send heartfelt thanks to every person who bought Eco-Libris stickers, and to every bookstore and publisher who sold them. We have several tree nurseries in Guatemala , dedicated to growing trees in your name.
