After attending the Climate Protection summit on 7/14 mentioned in the previous post, I jumped on a plane (emissions from flight offset by TerraPass) and attended the B100 Coop Conference. During this conference, I got an inkling of what a sustainable community fuel system might look like.
Last Friday, 7/14, the second Climate Protection: Everybody Profits conference was held in Sonoma County, CA. Speakers from local governments, businesses were featured along with a panel discussion of tools and solutions. The keynote speaker was Linda Adams, secretary of the California Environmental Protection agency. Here is a link to the article on the conference in the local paper. The Climate Protection Campaign presented a "report card" for the County, detailing emissions levels to date, and how far the County needs to go to reach its overall target of 25% below 1990 levels by 2015Download status_report_july_14_06.pdf
After a long hiatus, we're going to ramp up the blog again. There is a lot of good stuff happening locally with climate protection, and I'm hoping to be able to capture some of it here.
