This is pretty hilarious. Is "campaigning for green issues" going to do more for green issues than starting a startup like Craigslist that saves the world more wasted newsprint than all those activists put together?


It might, depending on the talent of the person running the campaign. My talents aren't suited to being effective politically, but I wish more people who did have such talents would use them to change things. Many of the world's biggest and most important problems are political, not technological.
