The Blue-Green Alliance between the United Steelworkers and the Sierra Club is working now with Al Gore's Alliance for Climate Protection. The Alliance is working to educate its members about global warming and then activate them around solutions that can promote economic prosperity with green principles. It's an effort to build a strong blue-collar constituency for global warming solutions. Steelworkers President, Leo Gerard says we’re looking towards a very near future when good, high-paying American jobs will be created by the emerging green economy.
