title: Changing course-and the world.
abstract: For too long some corporations have held a gun to our heads and demanded that we choose jobs or choose the Earth. It's a false choice. We share a dream to build an America in which every worker who builds green can afford a hybrid car and every worker who is struggling to keep their house warm can join the struggle against global warming. The foundation that LIUNA has put in place over the last century can help build the green economy. Most green jobs for the foreseeable future will not be created by businesses alone, but through partnerships between business and government in the form of subsidies, incentives, or outright contracts.
