Actually, Heather, it IS a fad

Excerpt from this article:

Mayor Heather Fargo doesn't think "being green" is just hip or trendy. And, certainly, she said, it's not a fad or a buzz word.

In fact, she told a group of 600 downtown leaders Thursday that slowing emissions and dealing with climate change needs to be Sacramento's top priority.

"I want to ask you to help make this the agenda for Sacramento," Fargo said as part of her annual State of the Downtown address at Memorial Auditorium. "Every household, every person, even every business needs to join us in our efforts."
