A great angle on the story could be the "Unsung Hero" or "Lead by Example"
type of Biologist.  Who sacrifices convenience and rejects the products of
greenwashing by: riding her bicycle to work instead of buying a hybrid
automobile, composts his organic waste with a worm factory in his
classroom, she does research in local ecosystems instead of flying to
foreign lands, he wears organic cotton and hemp clothing instead of
clothing made from reduced fossil fuels, she promotes local alternatives to
those that shop at national chains, etc etc.  Basically, those Biologists
who aren't just walking the green-washed path of "less bad" but actually
sacrifice time and money to reduce their carbon and nitrogen footprints to
a righteously small tread.
