Sustainability seems very chic at the moment.  I see lots of organizations jumping on the bandwagon but not really taking sustainability to heart.  For example, Portland Community College is doing a big building project and making sure all the new buildings are "green" while doing nothing about the thousands and thousands of cars they attract at all of their campuses.  Don't organizations like PCC have a responsibility to be green in ALL of their impacts, not just the "chic" ones?
