Supporting Sustainability IS a Conservative Value

Latest Activity

Profile Information

Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?

Yes

Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:

My experience is mostly from personal research. I'm a contractor in the electrical & HVAC industry with an intense interest in alternative energy & energy conservation. I've been trying to break into alternatives (mostly individual photovoltaics) but the incentives in WI are still pretty pathetic. I've also designed residential heating systems using wood as a primary fuel with fossil fuel backup.

What excites you about this campaign?

The broad network of individuals from various geographic areas, political & educational backgrounds, with whom to exchange ideas. Our current political system concentrates all too much on that which divides us. I hope this network can let us concentrate on what should be a universal concern.

What do you want to do to help?

Contact legislators, meet with & recruit new members. Try to create political pressure to take correct action.

Thank you for joining with us in the SEE Group. I have been promoting SEE for thirty years and its time has finally come. Perhaps we can help shorten the time for your ideas to be accepted.

I look forward to working with you!
