Let’s keep the pressure on, pusing for change at every level of government. I’m a student in Oregon trying to increase the involvment of local governments in my state, in the fight against global warming. I’d be thrilled if any of you (especially Oregon folks) would visit the website of the Oregon Cities Climate Solutions Network at http://www.occsn.blogspot.com, and take a look around. We’ve got petitions to sign, and lots more!
