In June, 30 Michiganders, including 12 from here in Grand Rapids, joined with over 1,000 others to attend a four-day CCE/CCL (Citizens for Climate Education and CC Lobby) conference in Washington DC. The conference included sessions on climate warming and meetings with legislators. The meetings centered around the desire to pass a bill that would require a fee on carbon emissions with the money going to all citizens as dividends.
If interested, there is a local GR group that meets the 1st Thursday of the month at West Michigan Environmental Action Council. Ask Judy J. Bredeweg, Steve Mulder, Ken Piers, or Uko Zylstra for more information on attending.
