Hey Craggers!
After getting responses from some of you, we are definitely on for March 22 at C. Burr Artz Library in Frederick Maryland at 2-3:30. I apologize for those of you that are out of town that weekend- I will catch up with you in the next few weeks. We have had a request from CBS Evening News to film us. I have contacted the Library to get their approval. I am also looking for volunteers who would be willing to have a film crew in their homes to show their personal efforts in case CBS would like a personal angle. So far, Elin Ross and Truby LaGarde have volunteered- thanks!
Maryland CRAG also got a mention in the Christian Science Monitor and in Yahoo News this week! Thanks to Mark Rice-Oxley for writing the article! http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/0310/p01s01-wogn.html?page=1, http://news.yahoo.com/s/csm/20080310/wl_csm/ocrags
Here is the meeting agenda for March 22:
Intros for any new people and review of our carbon cap. We need to approve the cap with the flight miles added. 10 mins
Review progress with carbon reductions. What have you tried? What seems to be working? What did you try that did not work? I also have some new handouts with emissions reductions to share. 15 mins
Review the spreadsheets where I am tracking your emissions and see what information I am missing from each of you. Don’t worry- we won’t be exposing your emissions to the world press. 15 mins
Briefly discuss what the groups in the UK are doing. A number of them just finished carbon years and they have done really well. It’s inspiring! 5 mins
Zayn Bradley will present on solar hot water systems and answer our questions. 45 mins
Door prizes of carbon reduction materials: I have a few items to give to a few lucky Craggers. They are a surprise!
