While
the idea of "going green" was first championed by
the 60's
hippie movement, it has suddenly taken on a new urgency
in the 21st century.
Threats
of greenhouse gases and global
warming from the overuse of fossil fuels have sparked
renewed interest in conserving and protecting the Earth
as if our very lives (and our pocketbooks) depended on it.
Today,
the Web has become a major repository of information on the
subject as it continues to influence and raise awareness in
a younger, even hipper generation. In the next several decades,
watch as hybrid and electric cars, solar
energy, and green construction become major profitable
industries that provide green
jobs and employment opportunities worldwide.
Just up
ahead, find out more in our survey of top Web sites and guides
offering the latest information, expert tips, advice and how
to's for going green in our everyday lives. Also
check out feature articles that illustrate
the benefits ecotourism, cleaner air and water, and new discoveries
