1. I think Bobby Kennedy Jr.
He has worked for environmental causes for a long time. It would be nice to see a Kennedy in a high profile job like that.

6. Agree. He would be a great choice
and an indication that the environment was not to be further degraded.

7. Other Nominees
Barbara Boxer (if she wants the job).

If we're talking entertainers, there are several eligible: Robert Redford, Leonardo DiCapro, and Mary Steenbergen among others. There's some wisdom in naming an entertainer to attract added attention to the environmental situation.

If she should not win the nomination, Carol Moseley Braun might be a good choice.
