Congrats, Al and Panel

We have to congratulate Al Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for the Nobel Peace Prize they were awarded yesterday. The need for continued attention to the challenges of climate change continues and, more important, action is needed. Awarding the Nobel Peace Prize for work in this area can only help stimulate that action.

Innovation and entrepreneurship through social enterprise will be critical in these efforts. The energy, ideas, and enthusiasm that we can bring will be critical. Governments move slowly; entrepreneurs can inject speed and agility into the race to find solutions to climate change.

What do you think of the Nobel Foundations' choice?
