We have sent over 30,000 messages to our Senators in just 2 days. THIS IS THE MOMENT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. Real action is on the table. Let them hear from us.
Boone's team has made it so easy - it takes just one minute to forward a simple message to your Senators. PLEASE do it today. Please get the folks in your home, family and office to do the same.
Happy New Year Britnee,
Last year I helped so many members of Pickens Plan learn about personal home energy plans. It's all about conservation of power, and home power generation, things I have been doing at my residence to lower my electricity costs. Send me a friend request a to add me Britnee, I'd be honored to have you as a friend here.
BTW, Texas: I just posted an article link on my pickens page about Home Wind Systems in Texas. Your state's representatives, governor, and public utility commission officials are not in your corner with this "weak policy" on Net Metering. Instead they have the tables turned against green power for businesses and homeowners. Texas has created multiple sets of rules for loopholes and you have less rights than people in other states. You should read that article, important.
Several individual members of the PickensPlan have advanced the idea of a "petition drive" - i.e., have downloadable/printable petitions, then seek individuals to sign them outside stores, in non-governmental offices, at colleges, county and state fairs, outside sporting events, etc. A brief "handout" on the PickensPlan could also be given, or "business cards" or "stickers" - at the same time. All of the petitions would then be gathered and delivered en masse to Congress.
I believe this is a very good idea, in that it is: (a) proactive; (b) results in tangible evidence (boxes and boxes of signed petitions) that might influence Congress; (c) could lead to a surge of members of the PickensPlan (imagine the handout containing instructions for signing up as a member); and (d) provides a real sense of accomplishment to the members who are participating.
Will the PickensPlan support this idea, if not immediately then by scheduling it for a later "Call to Action"? Thank you for your consideration.
Please take a look at the executive summary on my page. We are in the process of establishing a nonprofit innovation laboratory in Houston Texas dedicated to inspiring young people to pursue technology careers and to the development of the next-generation of strategic technologies to meet our current global challenges. Alternative energy is a major focus of our program.
Right now, we are in need of people willing to sponsor our efforts or to finding sponsorship for us.
We believe this can be the beginning of an effort that can spread to other areas of the country and create a critical mass of new technology ideas and innovative technologists to meet the challenges.
Any assistance you could provide would be appreciated.
Hi. Britnee
I will have to decline at this time to visit sweetwater,Tx. for the Pickens Plan of the Great Plains. Traveling is restricted to Montana at best. Again, go to your State legislators and visit Wash. D.C. make your voice heard.

Hi Britnee,
I would like to see Pickens Plan put into service for the Great Plains. As a nation we need to united and be a voice to Washington D.C. and states legislatures, to move towards wind and solar.
