Obama to Climate Activists: "Push the Envelope" 
------------------------------------------------



On Friday, President Obama met with a small group of youth climate
activists at the White House. Participants included Shadia Fayne Wood, a
member of the steering committee of the Environmental Action Coalition.
In an interview with The Nation magazine, Wood said: “[Obama] told us
it was our job to push the envelope and it’s his job to govern."
