Good words

Although the end of sprawl will require painful changes, it will also provide a badly needed opportunity to take stock of the car-dependent, privatized society that has evolved over the past 60 years and to begin imagining different ways of living and governing. We may discover that it's not so bad living closer to work, in transit- and pedestrian-friendly, diverse neighborhoods where we run into friends and neighbors as we walk to the store, school or the office. We may even find that we don't miss our cars and commutes, and the culture they created, nearly as much as we feared we would.

This Thanksgiving brought good news for clean energy activists in Ohio. AMP decided not to go ahead with a new coal plant in Meigs County.

This decision has sent a clear message that coal in Ohio is not invincible, can be fought, and that victories over it are possible. This victory resets the entire coal question in Ohio.

Cleveland Climate Watch and the Cleveland Mountain Justice Project invite you to a meeting at the home of Randy Cunningham. The agenda is open, but the following topics certainly need to be addressed.

  • What is the impact of the AMP decision on coal politics in Ohio?
  • Where are we with getting Ohio senators to support the Appalachian Restoration Act?
  • What does the legislative calendar look like regarding coal issues in Ohio?
  • Where are we with climate legislation in the aftermath of Copenhagen, and the considerable hurdles still awaiting it in Congress?
  • Status report on such issues as Coal River.

For more information, to RSVP, and to suggest additional topics, please call Randy Cunningham at 216-631-3337 or randino@sbcglobal.net
