Profile Information
- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- I am an advocate and support most forms of alternative energy. Nevada is no slouch in this area.
- What excites you about this campaign?
- It should have happened 20 years ago. It comes down to politics and it is about time persons with clout can step up. Most American's don't know where to begin, but feel we can all make a difference if given the right direction in varity of areas.
- What do you want to do to help?
- I don't know, I'm 65, give me some ideas and I will follow through. My son knows and understands windfarms much better than I. But I listen and learn.

The NNEACC endorses the Pickens Plan and salutes T. Boone Pickens for stepping forward to encourage the US government to take firm steps to wean the nation from its reliance on foreign oil to reduce global warming and in the interest of our economic welfare and national security. Wind and natural gas, the key focuses of the Pickens Plan, are important parts of the matrix of energy alternatives our nation needs to move toward.
The NNEACC respects your privacy. It will neither inundate you with email nor release your information to third parties. It will host monthly meetings with speakers across the full scope of energy alternatives, encourage committee participation to educate the public and mold public policy, and maintain a website to provide a knowledge base and intra-communication regarding energy conservation and emerging energy technologies.
There is much to be learned and much to be done. Working together will strengthen our voice and multiply the effectiveness of our efforts. Please join us at the link above and plan to attend the kick-off meeting on December 10 at UNR. See further details on the meeting and program at the bottom of this message.
Thank you,
NNEACC Planning Committee

Information About the First Meeting and Program
What: the first meeting of the Northern Nevada Energy Alternatives & Conservation Coalition (NNEACC) will include an organizational discussion of its objectives, immediate innitiatives and preliminary committee structure, and a presentation by the Director of the Great Basin Center for Geothermal Energy followed by questions.
Where: the Mathewson IGT Knowledge Center, Room 107, on the University of Nevada Reno campus, Building 085 on the NNEACC map at http://push.pickensplan.com/group/northernnevadaalternativeenergyandconservationcons . Note the correct parking lot is 083.
When: Wednesday, December 10, 2008 at 6:00pm.
Who: Dr. Lisa Shevenell is a Hot Rocker. As a hydrogeologist and research scientist at the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology in the UNR and director of the University's Great Basin Center for Geothermal Energy, she both stresses and studies the importance of America developing geothermal power and other renewable sources of energy. Dr. Shevenell will be discussing Nevada's geothermal potential: where it is located, its environmental impacts and benefits, and how that potential can be used directly as well as for producing clean, baseload, indigenous, renewable power for Nevada.
Transportation and parking: the NNEACC has special arrangements with UNR Parking Services. There will be signs posted at the indoor parking lot (083 on the NNEACC map) directing meeting attendees to the correct section for parking. Please DO NOT pay your parking at the garage as NNEACC has been asked to collect and pay the $3/car parking contribution directly to the UNR Parking Office. Remember, also, the free Sierra Spirit bus service available downtown that passes directly in front of the Mathewson Building, http://rtcwashoe.com/Schedules/map_files/map_SIERRASPIRIT.pdf . Meters in the open parking lot adjacent to the indoor lot are $1.50/hour, free after 8 PM.
