Leading environmentalists,thinkers, and others react to the results of the 2004 U.S. election.
"What do we do now? That's the question one early riser asked Grist in a letter to the editor this morning. Faced with another four years of the Bush administration -- an administration that has been roundly denounced as the most environmentally destructive in the history of the nation -- our correspondent asked: Where should environmentalists put their energies for the next four years?Rather than field that question ourselves, we turned to environmentalists across the country for their thoughts -- to writers and thinkers, Congress members and corporate leaders, students and scientists. Over the next several days, we will share their thoughts with you here, as they draw on sources as disparate as the rapper Eminem and the poet W. H. Auden to find hope, inspiration, and a vision for the next four years."
