Exxon posts quarterly profits of $10.7B - isn't it time to invest in renewable energy and stop the oil based stranglehold on our energy supply?

Hi Suse!

Love the book. I have a dear friend who is a chiodrens author- Jill Lamere. And another who is the illustrator for PAddington and many others R. W. Alley. Such a fun business. Congratulations on your success. Such a super topic for kids.

Hope all is well, and that you are still here with us. We need you.

Here is my gentle nudge...

Petitions are the fastest way to ramp up our numbers.
Many hands make light work. Sre you still working toward 100? We really need you.

1. Download the pledge/petition :

http://media.pickensplan.com/downloads/PP/pollingsignupsheet.pdf

2. get them signed

3. fax them in to the 888# at the bottom of the pledge, asap.
(you can also scan/email them or send them -info at the bottom of the petition)

If you are able to get 100 we would be honored to have you in the 100CLUB. We need millions to get the clout we need as a grass roots organization! Please let me know how it goes.

BEST to you,.
Kim

Hi Suse!

It has been a while since we kept in touch last!

We are now over 1.2 million suporters. We will need many more if we are to beat back the damn lobbyists and special interests. Can you help with the pledges? Every American needs to sign on. With pledges we can fan out and reach so many. It is an easy ask- Boone has done the hard work. I was able to get 300 signed in the first 4 days - everyone wants to to get off of foreign oil. We may never have a golden opportunity like this again!
ARE YOU IN?

Best
Kim

Hi Suse,

When you get a chance you might want to go and check out the Artists Round-Up group that is not really a group but more of a roster. It is a good venue to promote yourself and your work. Just start a discussion and title it your name and that will become your "page" within the group.

Also, you need to meet Kris Wilson in Branson, MO. She's got a wonderful project that she is working on to educate children via entertainment. I suspect that you two would get along wonderfully. sorry I don't have her link handy. You can go to my page though and find her in my friends. Just search Kris Wilson. Her icon is a graphic. It's a big wind generator in the middle and reads ELF LIVE.

May we always desire to play a better game and create a better tomorrow (for everyone!).

Sierra Club releases annual listing of the "Greenest" American colleges and universities

ASU listed in magazine's top 10 'coolest' schools

Sierra magazine, a publication of the Sierra Club, has named ASU as one of the nation’s top 10 “coolest” schools for its efforts to stop global warming.

The cover story for Sierra’s September-October issue is its second annual listing of the greenest American colleges and universities.

This year’s top 10 “coolest” schools are noted for taking dramatic steps to curb global warming. Sierra’s list, “10 That Get It,” shows that schools of all sizes are taking action. Top schools earned points for policies in 10 categories: buildings, energy, food, investment, procurement, transportation, curriculum, environmental activism, waste management and overall commitment to sustainability.

A perfect score in every category would give a school 100 points. ASU, with the largest student population of the selected schools, ranked No. 6 with a score of 87.

Sierra’s top 10 “coolest” schools of 2008 are:

1. Middlebury (Vt.) College (2,350 students).

2. University of Colorado-Boulder (29,000 students).

3. University of Vermont-Burlington (10,750 students).

4. Warren Wilson College (Swannanoa, N.C., 850 students).

5. Evergreen State College (Olympia, Wash., 4,400 students).

6. ASU (51,500 students).

7. University of Florida-Gainesville (50,000 students).

8. Oberlin (Ohio) College (2,200 students).

9. University of Washington-Seattle (39,250 students).

10. Tufts University (Medford, Mass., 8,500 students).

“A new trend is sweeping the country,” says Bob Sipchen, Sierra’s editor-in-chief. “American schools are going green. When schools take such significant steps toward addressing global warming, it will have a huge impact on hundreds of thousands of students. And if young people take that passion into their communities and careers, it will reverberate globally.”

“ASU’s growing recognition as an institution committed to advancing sustainability education, research, operations and outreach is a source of pride and a testament to the steadfast dedication and leadership of our university community as a whole,” says ASU President Michael Crow.

Through the generous gifts of Julie Ann Wrigley, ASU’s Global Institute of Sustainability was established in 2004 as the hub of the university’s sustainability initiatives. The institute advances research, education and business practices for an urbanizing world. Its School of Sustainability, the first of its kind in the United States, was established in 2007 and offers integrated degree programs that advance practical solutions to environmental, economic and social challenges.

Sustainability is a fundamental precept at ASU and permeates its teaching, learning, research and business missions. Some key initiatives under way at ASU include deployment of solar power on all four campuses, development of highly efficient buildings, operation of all campuses to be carbon neutral and produce zero waste, and unified dedication and commitment to finding sustainable solutions for issues of energy, water, urbanization and climate change.

“ASU is proud to be included in this group of accomplished universities,” says Bonny Bentzin, manager of university sustainability business practices at ASU. “Rating systems such as the Sierra magazine assessment are important for benchmarking accomplishments and sharing best practices. Through the work of many departments and individuals across the university, we have come a long way.”
