While scatter shooting around Earthday, and wondering how many more times I can hear about cool ideas that are “coming sometime soon” before my head explodes…

This is actually a time when public action matters.  Dems and Reps alike are wiffling and waffling on supporting the current Clean Energy Bill put forward by Rep. Waxman and Rep. Markey.  They have introduced a really good bill that will jump start the U.S. government regulating things it should have been regulating long ago.   I don’t usually subscribe to people pushing out contact your representative requests, but this one is a big deal to me, and it should be a big deal to you.  SoRead up on the bill.  (or, if you are feeling super motivated, read the actual bill.  I like OpenCongress.com for that)  Then, click the link below.

Actually, I don’t care that it says it’s from Al Gore, and if you would rather go directly to your congress person that would be even better, but We Can Solve It is a good advocacy group that can use your voice.

This.  Legislation.  Matters.

Right now, Congress is debating clean energy legislation that will jumpstart our economy and help solve the climate crisis. I’ve joined with Vice President Al Gore and millions of others to show my support — will you?
