Unions are only as socially conscious and environmentally aware as their members. The reason I believe unions are possibly the most important organization in a democratic capitalist system is that they represent the workers directly, in a democratic way. Corporations represent their shareholders and management, and we absolutely *must* have unions that support the employees and workers.
I'd love to see "community unions" that are unions of residents and community members to promote their interests in saving the environment. Protecting and preserving our environment is a number one priority in my opinion. More corporate globalization will make it worse.
