Generation Debt

I met Anya Kamenetz a few weeks back in San Francisco - she came out for a nightmarish week of conferences on clean energy, carbon markets and efficiency (nightmarish because they were all the same week - and to my untrained eye, seem to all be on the same topic! Oy.) Anya wanted to meet with one of my clients to talk about urban renewal and the very real roles that cities can (and should!) play in creating a sustainable future.

Anyway, I read up on some of her work, and ... she's good. The issue of America becoming a debtor nation is not trivial, and lots of ink being spilled on the topic these days. But Anya saw it coming, wrote about it extensively for some pretty smart publications, and has an excellent blog on the topic. Shout out to you, Anya, you're a smart cookie (mmmm, cookie!)
