Green

Also included in Al Gore's Turning Point article in Rolling Stone is a reference to the Green Tea Coalition. One of the worst political puns ever, it is an "unholy alliance" between the anti-government Tea Party and the Sierra Club. They have particularly worked against the Koch brothers, who have been opposing rooftop solar generation. The Sierra Club wants more solar, the Tea Party wants less government intervention in the market (as the Koch brothers are pushing for, in order to preserve their monopolies) - it works.

One could look at How We Really Know We're In The Crisis and see ... nothing that sounds quite like this. Maybe "Cultural Expression Finds a Community Purpose" as plenty of these folks see this as a group effort. It does seem significant that there is a definite decision, here, to triumph over a common enemy through teamwork.
