"Greens Join Occupy Wall Street"

Green climate activists have declared their solidarity with the "Occupy Wall Street" movement.

"In all of the navel-gazing that climate activists conduct in order to figure out why the world is on the highway to carbon hell, one thing that's easy to forget is what we're up against: Gigantic, tremendously wealthy entrenched interests whose only goal is to maintain the status quo right up until the Once-ler burns the last of our fossil fuels. In other words, corporations."

Christopher Mims reports for Grist October 6, 2011.
