Brooklyn Bridge for Sale: Kleiner Perkins Green Growth Fund Open to New Investors

Hey buddy. Have I got a deal for you. You know Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers? Yeah, the top-tier VC firm whose past investments include Amazon.com, America Online, Compaq, Electronic Arts, Genentech, Google, LSI Logic, Macromedia, Netscape, and Sun Microsystems amongst others.

It’s raising a $500 million Green Growth fund and boy are you in luck. Unlike most of its funds, which are as exclusive as a Madoff fund, KPCB wants to let you in on one of the best opportunities ever. Its Green Growth fund is, for a limited time only, open to limited partners who haven’t invested in one of its funds before.

According to KPCB, “Greentech could be the largest economic opportunity of the 21st century.” And KPCB is uniquely positioned to take advantage of it. The firm has partnered with Nobel Prize-winner Al Gore, who I hear has been blindsided by the cold weather that has been plaguing the Northern Hemisphere this winter. I’m sure it’s just temporary.

I know some of you are probably skeptical. Cynics say that the economics of “greentech” simply don’t make any sense and in the absence of government handouts, they may never. Few of the companies VCs have invested in show any signs of being anywhere near large-scale commercialization and green public companies cost their investors a lot of green last year.

But common sense is overrated. This is about doing good. Somehow. Some way. In the meantime, saying you’re a limited partner in a KPCB fund might impress some of your friends. Assuming they still think it’s 1999.

Please email greentech@kpcb.com if you’re interested in investing in the Green Growth fund. Again, this is a limited time offer that won’t last long.

If you send an email within the next 15 minutes and make an investment of $1 million or greater, you’ll receive a limited edition Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers tote bag that makes it easy to shop in an eco-friendly fashion. Supplies won’t last long so don’t hesitate. Please email now.

    One more thing Drama…

    Speaking of bad investment ideas, can you tell me what the hell the point of twitter is?

    I know it’s very important, because techcrunch and social media say so. I’ve signed up, read the help, browsed the faqs, and yet I still can’t find the answer to my question.

    Why do I care about Bob in Michigan and what he’s doing right now.
