 *Sustainability visionaries see room for hope in our worry-filled
world*<http://www.grist.org/biz/fd/2006/09/27/crywolf/index.html?source=biz>

 Environmentalists hear it all the time: that they're naysayers,
wolf-cryers, Chicken Littles, nattering nabobs of negativism. And frankly
... well, OK, it's true. Full Disclosure columnists John Elkington and Mark
Lee talk to fellow sustainability experts who say there's plenty to be
concerned about with climate change and other looming global problems -- but
just because you're worried doesn't mean there's no cause for hope.
