<p>Trying to find the underdogs in the stock market? Who is out there and at the same time deserve the mention of a green philosophy? More so, to put their money where you mouth is, and not just give lip service to the Green Economy. [http://walmartstores.com/Sustainability/ Wal-Mart], [http://www.crmcdonalds.com/publish/csr/home/news/McDonalds_Green_Built_Restaurant_Featured_As_Quick_Service_Model.html McDonald's], etc. all put forth green initiatives, but never doubt where their goal is... the bottom line (through good PR). ''DOES GREEN = GREEN?'' The status quo ''does'' feed the bottom line. That's why it works. Change takes patience. To overcome this recession, the Great American Reset (as I like to term it), we need new companies, new ideas, and new people to come to the forefront.</p>
