The new James Bond flick Quantum of Solace, which opens this weekend, has an eco-theme. Quantum of Solace continues the storyline that began with Casino Royale and finds Bond shaken (not stirred) by the death and betrayal of a loved one. He wants revenge, and he points a (Gold)finger at "eco-entrepreneur" Dominic Greene (the man with the green gun?). Played by Mathieu Amalric, Greene is the owner of an eco-hotel in the Chilean desert -- an oasis aimed at luring rich and powerful folk with fancy environmental technology. But could this Bond villain really be who he seems? (Dr.) No! In fact, the hotel and "Save the Earth" shtick is just a front for Greene's plan to seize part of South America's water supply.Aha! A brilliant plot twist: Mr. Greene is Greenewashing! I hope Bond can figure it out in time. After all, you only live twice.
