Green Investments are Growing. Can Politics Follow Suit?

Read this WIRED article about Al Gore’s effort to boost the green economy by partnering with the well-known Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner, Perkins, Caulfield and Byers. Together, they are aiming to help shift away from our carbon-based economy by investing in green entrepreneurs, innovators, and technologists.

As this partnership demonstrates, to make a substantial impact, the green movement requires investment. More and more we are seeing this market-based approach being used to catalyze significant social change.

In much the same way, political change requires investment too. We need to be making investments that are broad and not just limited to candidates and traditional organizations. Investments must also be made in fresh and effective organizations and leaders that are necessary in moving this country forward.

Soon, NPC will be releasing our flagship product that we hope will encourage and inspire long-term, strategic investments. Stay tuned.
