What excites you about this campaign?

Linking folks together and getting it done. Education and awareness is critical to mobilize citizen support. I welcome the opportunity to work with others to get us moving.

What do you want to do to help?

I am already fully engaged in this struggle and have been involved for years, I would welcome the opportunity to work with others for the purpose of educating them and bringing them up to speed on the situation here. It is a unique, (depressing) situation in Nebraska regarding the utilization of our abundant natural resources.

I can provide guidance, equipment and support for workshops folks might want to get involved with.

What do you think of the input process going on the the Energy Plan forwarded by the Nebraska Energy Office? Also, what do you think of the
Nebraska Power Association Renewable Energy Integration Study funded by the DOE and NREL to the tune of $500,000K? Is it another study that Public Power can tell us only what we need to know and only what they want to do and control? Steve Eveans

I have viewed your website and I think it is quite impressive. Have you ever done any residential wind turbine installations inside city limits (anywhere)? Was zoning an issue? If so, this is something I am definitely interested in pursuing.

Welcome to the Pickens Plan.

We all share the same goal; to rid ourselves of foreign oil and clean up our environment for our children and grandchildren. Wind energy is a viable alternative. Some of us have a different ideas of what we can do for immediate relief.

Join some groups, get involved and invite some of your friends to join you.

Check out our group "Live Carbon Free" and see how we are promoting conservation and environmental stewardship as the bridge to future energy developments. Regardless of what we do, it will take some time to implement on a significant scale. For immediate results we can make a huge difference by conserving what we have.

We would like for you to join our group and value your input. Feel free to add me as a friend..
