To hear Pete Levi, the president of the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce, tell it, scores of local businesses are jumping on the green bandwagon. Corporations big and small are bulking up their bottom line by trimming their environmental impact and nearly 150 local companies have joined the Chamber’s Climate Protection Partnership, which aims to minimize global warming pollution.

While many are getting savvy about the benefits of going green, there are still plenty of science nay-sayers who want environmentalists to keep their costly “hoaxes” to themselves.
