I found this blog post below interesting - it addresses the question of the difference between Clean Tech and Green Tech:
http://www.cleantechblog.com/2007/07/cleantech-vs-greentech.html
In a nutshell, it appears that Cleantech was coined by some VC folks who did alot of thinking about how to position their efforts (as the post indicates, saying you're part of the "energy and environment" sector was awkward). Greentech was odd for various reasons - too political in some ways ("green" sounds too far-left leaning, perhaps), and, to lift a quote from the post, "who wants green air or green water?".
Anyways, our blog uses Green Tech, and we did an entire 10 seconds of thinking on the name. So take that.
