To help us do that is Matt McDermott, an alternative energy writer for TreeHugger.com and Planet Green.com.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
