Van Jones, Founder and President, Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, is a national leader working to combine solutions to America's two biggest problems: social inequality and environmental destruction. In the summer of 2007, Jones launched a new initiative called Green For All, a national campaign for green-collar jobs and opportunities. Visit ellabakercenter.org for additional information.

"The chief moral obligation of the 21st Century is to build a green economy that is strong enough to lift people out of poverty. Those communities that were locked out of the last century's pollution-based economy must be locked into the new, clean and renewable economy. Our youth need green-collar jobs, not jails."

— Van Jones
