    <description><![CDATA[<h3><a href="http://sustainablog.org/files/2008/10/worried.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3730" src="http://go635254.s3.amazonaws.com/sustainablog/files/2008/10/worried.jpg" alt="A woman shows worry on her face" width="250" height="239" /></a>Even with yesterday&#8217;s stock market rally, we&#8217;ve all got the economy on our minds&#8230; and, for the most part, we&#8217;re worrying about it. Our retirement accounts are shrinking, our jobs are less secure, and buying or selling a home seems like a fantasy. An injection of cash into the markets is welcome; an injection of new ideas is absolutely critical.</h3>
<p>As I&#8217;ve noted in <a href="http://planetsave.com/blog/2008/10/02/take-action-help-dig-up-the-details-on-the-candidates-energy-and-environmental-records/">previous</a> <a href="http://sustainablog.org/2008/09/29/give-me-your-vote-and-ill-give-you-clean-abundant-energy/">posts</a>, <a href="http://redgreenandblue.org">Red, Green and Blue</a> has teamed up with social media start-up <a href="http://reframeit.com">ReframeIt</a> to bring a higher level of transparency on energy and environmental issues to the presidential election. With the recent economic turmoil, though, we quickly realized we needed to connect these ideas with the economic concerns so many Americans now have.  So, we&#8217;ve done that&#8230; and also added some financial incentives! Now, if you participate in the RG&#38;B/ReframeIt scavenger hunt, you won&#8217;t just get a warm feeling from contributing to the stock of knowledge on both presidential candidates and their policy proposals &#8212; you&#8217;ll also have a shot at a $1000 grand prize, and a guest posting spot at RG&#38;B.</p>
<p><strong>For the latest details, check out <a href="http://redgreenandblue.org/2008/10/13/need-some-economic-stimulus-join-our-scavenger-hunt/">yesterday&#8217;s post at Red, Green and Blue</a>&#8230;</strong> and join us as we hunt for the information the next president will need to spur the transition towards a green economy.</p>
