** QUIC...(more)K UPDATE: A room change! We'll meet in the Henderson room, right next door to the Valley Forge room.It's on the second floor, across from the UM Library, and is elevator-accessible.**
First up: how best to lobby Senator Arlen Specter. We need him to improve the recently-passed House bill 2454 ('ACES') to bring green jobs, cleaner air and water and safe, renewable energy resources to our country. Stopping global warming may seem insurmountable; it requires real US-led legislative AND union-backed muscle. The Senate version of 2454 must put the teeth back into EPA enforcement, reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and truly create incentives that grow our economy green! Not familiar with HR 2454? I'll share details where it falls short.
Next up? A local GreenJobs/GreenEconomy info/job fair later this summer/early fall.

For this GreenJobs info fair, I'm gathering trades people, engineers and architects, small business owners and builders, all of whose focus is environmentally-conscious construction, material and equipment. You can you help, too? And we can invite our legislators to join us, to prove they are committed to turning our economy and our future Green. Did you know that PA is the 3rd worst polluter in the US? With your help, we can change that. Join us! - Amy

YES! I'll be there!
