Podesta: An Unlikely Environmental Crusader

"...Somewhere along the way, Mr. Podesta developed an intellectual passion about the environment. And now, in the service of that passion, he is marshaling the tactical, media and organizational skills he has sharpened in three decades in Democratic politics to try to beat back what he sees as the retrograde and damaging environmental and energy policies of the Bush administration.His new perch is on the board of directors of the League of Conservation Voters, one of the nation's most politically active environmental lobbying groups, whose chairman is Theodore Roosevelt's great-grandson."
