Comment by Suse Saville on April 21, 2011 at 12:02am: Celebrate Earth Day and help kickstart The Power Families' renewable energy series for kids!

I'm a children's author who is passionate about what renewable energy can do for our world and how we can make it accessible and entertaining for kids. I have created the “Power Families”, a series of three, action-packed picture books set on wind, solar, and wave energy farms.

So far Andy, the Illustrator, and I have funded it from our own pockets and got everything ready go to print. Through the crowd-funding website kickstarter.com we are raising the money to do a short print run to be able to get the clean energy message out through school visits.

We can’t wait to get started – but we can’t do this without your help!

- Please take a look at our project http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1642371480/the-power-families-c... and check out the great gifts you can receive for supporting us.

- Please help spread the word to get this fabulous, renewable energy series off the ground and out into the hands of the next generation!

Comment by mike on November 17, 2010 at 8:45pm: Indie Film “Haynesville” Will Premiere November 23rd On CNBC

“Haynesville” will premiere on Tuesday, November 23rd at 9pm on CNBC. The one hour documentary will repeat that evening at 10pm, 12am and 1am.

The show will also air on:

Sunday, November 28th at 10pm.

“Haynesville”

When the people in rural Northern Louisiana learn they are sitting on a fortune, they struggle to weigh their big dreams against the safety of their community. Some will take the money and run while others learn to negotiate with the big energy companies who are looking to drill into the trillion-dollar natural gas reservoir that lies deep beneath their homes. Will this be easy money or the fight of their lives, in what some are calling the “new gold rush”?

Comment by Dani Lanz on November 2, 2009 at 4:15pm: Let’s get to 120 by 11/20/09

Army:

What a couple of weeks it’s been and I have lots to report and something very important to ask.

There’s a new Natural Gas Caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives which is headed by Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA) and Rep. Dan Boren (D-OK). The more than 40 bi-partisan members of the caucus held a major hearing on Capitol Hill. The Natural Gas Caucus talked about how the development of America’s natural gas resources will help set America on a path to energy independence and create millions of new jobs. It was a great event and an important message to get out there.

But here’s the really important part.

We’ve got just under 100 cosponsors of the NAT GAS Act (H.R. 1835) in the House—and that’s great—but I think we can educate more Members of Congress, build on that support and do a lot more.

Click here to email your Member of Congress and ask them to become a cosponsor of the NAT GAS Act.

I think we can get at least another 20+ cosponsors in the coming weeks so I’m calling on every member of the Army to reach out to their Member of Congress right now so that we can get to at least 120 sponsors by November 20th. I’m calling it 120 by 11-20.

I’m going to be working the phones and I need you to as well. Army, we can get this done and show Congress that it’s time to end our dependence on foreign oil.

Click here to email your Member of Congress and ask them to become ...
Stay tuned because we’re going to post regular updates about our progress and highlight those members who are working to get us off foreign oil.

Let’s keep the pressure on!
