Y'all *(spent just enough time in Pace, MS to get it!)* * * * CLIMATE CHANGE—2nd Project I’ve found myself in despair about the way our US ‘consume-and-throw-away-society’ is influencing the entire world and the trend it has established and maintained and perpetuated in changing the climate. I anticipate that the end result is Global Suicide! I think that our grandchildren’s future is in jeopardy, and suspect that our great-grandchildren will have a planet that is uninhabitable. Some things that I am currently doing to counter the trend: --using the lawn for garden vegetables --collecting solar electricity for house use --riding my bicycle for all in-town trips --re-cycling paper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum But more needs to be done. I have at least 2 projects In mind. #2 The MARCH Friends of mine in Iowa are organizing something big and important. On March 1, 2014, 1,000 climate patriots will set-out from the west coast, walking across America to Washington, DC, inspiring and motivating the general public and elected officials to act now to address the climate crisis. This will be the largest coast-to-coast march in American history. The idea was initiated by my friend, Ed Fallon, a former Iowa lawmaker who also ran for Governor and US Congress. He now hosts a talk show--Fallon Forum website. Ed and his Team of people working on the March need as much help as possible using the grassroots and social media across the country to let people know of this opportunity. I would be willing to ask Ed to add your email address to a once-week email update the March organizers send out? Or you can get in touch with the project through the website. If you'd like to check out the March website, here's the link: http://climatemarch.org/. * * * *David* * * *PS. if you have other list-serves this should go to please let me know.* * *
