Here’s a transcript of the Twitter Q&A with our founder Ray Anderson from Tuesday night during the opening of Greenbuild 2009.

@InterfaceFLORna We’re sitting here with @RayCAnderson. Please send in your questions now! #greenbuild http://yfrog.com/j7g5ij

@tomklein @interfaceflorna how can I change my company to be more sustainable if the executives and even the board of directors just don’t get it?

@InterfacFLORna @tomklein maybe you should consider changing companies!

@InterfaceFLORna From @RayCAnderson - Those that only talk about what they’ve done instead of how much there is to do are greenwashing

@tomklein @interfaceflorna How do you see the Smart Grid and sustainability coming together - for companies and individuals?

@InterfaceFLORna @tomklein I see them coming together to get us oli, coal and nuclear, which is the ultimate objective. The sooner the better. #greenbuild

@GreenIntel @interfaceFLORna Ray, what’s the most exciting thing you have seen in green this year?

@InterfacFLORna @GreenIntel The energy bill working its way through Congress to make carbon carry a price that reflects its true cost = green letter day

@greenskeptic @InterfaceFLORna Ask Ray what he says to people who think sustainability costs but doesn’t pay.

@InterfaceFLORna @greenskeptic it doesn’t cost it does pay. Read chapter 5 of my new book. Waste reduction has netted us 400M plus in savings. #greenbuild

@elaineishere @InterfaceFLORna Ray, If carbon doesn’t get monetized & regulation moves too slowly, will small green actions make a difference? #greenbuild

@InterfaceFLORNa @elaineishere Absolutely! The starting place is do something. Then do something else.
