This Topic: Global Warming Action

[Lisa Yarrow]

Is it warm in here or is it just me? As evidence of global warming mounts up it’s becoming impossible to deny that it’s happening and that you and I are playing a significant role. After having spent plenty of time fretting on our own, a number of us have started talking together about what we can do as individuals, and as a community, to reduce the rising levels of carbon emissions. One thing we recognize is that the time for talking has ended. We need to start putting our thoughts and ideas into action. For example, Sweden has declared that by 2020 they will be getting 100% of their energy from renewable sources. What kind of challenge do we want to set for ourselves? What kind of role model can Whidbey become? If you want to join us come to a meeting Wednesday, August 23rd, 7pm at 2883 Grimm Road, in Bayview. If you have questions please call 321-5133. And remember - Do Here Now to Be Here Now.
