Go Green Nashville - July 2008
Wow, I'm mightily heartened to see so much response on the email list today. When I first started the group the list email function wasn't working, so I think I kinda walked away for a bit, but glad there is other interest building. Thanks to Ryan and everyone who took the time to respond for kicking it into gear.
Anyone coming to wecansolveit these days is cruising thru a welcome page that has links to Al Gore's recent Energy Challenge speech and there's also a wonderful video with snips from the speech set to music with great graphics. Stop and take a look if you haven't seen it already.
I think the biggest individual changes we can make are in the kitchen (local sourced organic as possible foods, read Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan), home energy efficiency (see Kilowatt Hours, if anybody hasn't, borrow it from me), and on the road ( I just got Who Killed the Electric Car from netflix and should be watching it right now!). But by far our biggest job is making sure there is political will for making these tremendous changes happen on a national and global policy level asap. Take a look at a project like www.ausra.com and see what we can do on a large scale with renewable enrgy. It's mind boggling that there is still so much foot dragging going on. It's going to take all of us and more at home, at work, at church, school and everywhere.
Yes we can! ~m
