Election in Massachusetts--

What a night, the day after listening to Martin Luther King Jr on NPR and feeling so inspired, the memories of a year ago, going to parties to celebrate Barak Obama's election etc.... Massachusetts!!! Ted Kennedy's seat! So so sad and frustrating.

Anyway here we are, our jobs just got a little harder. This is definitely one of those times when things are just not going my way and I am feeling angry and frustrated. At these times I have learned to hunker down and keep going and going.

Climate Action Network of Sustainable Wallingford Meeting minutes 11.2.2009

In Attendance:
Arvia Morris, Lynn Fitz-Hugh, Chuck Lare, James Williams

1) Outreach brain storming, Carbon Salon anyone?

After reporting back from the 350 events (see below) we spent most of the meeting talking about how to reach out to our friends and relatives who are concerned about climate but not activists at this point.

Great election results for Seattle, King County and Washington State!

Just a quick congradulatons to everyone for getting out and voting and asking your friends to vote in this past election. Due to your hard efforts King County and Seattle have great leadership for creating a sustianable future. State wide, Washington State has rejected a ballot measure that would have severely undercut our efforts to educate ourselves and maintian our natural endowment. And is it not great to live an a state that recognizes everyones civil rights!

Sincerely,
Arvia Morris
