				<p>I'm aorry, but MBA kids certainly aren't going to get $80,000 to $100,000 <strong>for three months</strong> and I doubt the big boys can command that kind of money for just talking and writing, no hardware installed, just one person working.&nbsp; I've been in the business to know better than that,&nbsp; But point well taken that we need more conservation-minded people in big business.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

				Sounds like a great program EDF has crafted! 35 million in savings spurred by the action of seven interns is simply incredible. The program showcases the need for "energy savy" mba students who can play a role in managing both a company's finances - and its energy use. As energy becomes more scarce, and as external costs (such as carbon emissions) are internalized through taxes and trading regimes, this type of accounting and management will inevitably become an increasingly important part of the job. It is good to see programs emerging that provide this. Another example is sustainable business focus offered by the University of Vermont, which gets students and business leaders up to speed on business sustainability (<a href="http://learn.uvm.edu/igs" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow"> <a href="http://learn.uvm.edu/igs" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">http://learn.uvm.edu/igs ). They also offer a program in collaborative management which helps train business and community leaders to work more effectively together. We need more programs like UVM's and EDFs!</a></a>
