Want to make sure you're the best candidate for that high-level executive job? You might want to bone up on your sustainability skills with a little help from the NYU Polytechnic Institute's CleantechExecs program, a 10-session course that teaches budding executives how to navigate New York City's business landscape with a light carbon footprint.
...as companies around the world seek to become more sustainable for both economic and publicity-related reasons, we imagine that businesspeople who pass through the CleantechExecs program will have a leg up in their job applications. How long could it be before more universities start offering similar programs?

Hultin at the podium: “The soldiers in this battle [against climate change] are scientists, engineers, students, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists — just like those at NYC ACRE.”](http://www.poly.edu/sites/polyproto.poly.edu/files/imagecache/img_col_3_140/gallery/Press%20Conference.jpg)
