		<itunes:subtitle>The intersection of liberal and conservative, where great ideas are the only agenda.</itunes:subtitle>
		<itunes:summary>The Green Zone Online is uniting perspectives, left and right, liberal and conservative , spiritual and secular under the common goal of protecting the Earth's precious resources. Insights on energy, natural lands, air and water quality, food resources, and and other important environmental issues are all invited to the GreenZone where we will explore real solutions to real problems and make real, positive change happen for the planet. In the GreenZone we go beyond political bias in favor of positive movement. We drop dogma, choosing pragmatic thought. We cross party lines to agree upon action that gets results, and addresses global need. We invite humor, personal experience, passion and truth in service of moving the conversations forward. The Green Zone is the arena where the avid sportsman can find common ground with the activist vegetarian. Where the Prius hyper-miler can compare notes with the concerned small business owner. Where "God's green earth" meets the "greenback dollar." We all have something we can agree upon, and that is that this planet's precious resources are worth working together to protect. Conscious living doesn't have to be depressing. Let's have fun learning the issues and finding creative ways to make the World a better place. Step into the GreenZoneand share your great ideas for the good of the Earth.</itunes:summary>
