As JFSJ's gets more involved in the green jobs movement, equity and diversity are central priorities. The NRDC, which is a great organization doing important work, underscores (and perhaps exacerbates) the problem when it put up something like this.

Twelve examples of green jobs, only one held by a woman. Of the eleven men, ALL appear to be white guys.

Seriously? Seriously?

How about these guys:

Also basically no women, but a bit more diverse...

Interesting that the one woman is also the one (apparent) non-white person. Double duty. . .
