Citizens' Climate Lobby - the Power of One, Many Times Over

Four years ago, Brian Ettling began volunteering to educate people about Climate Change, through the Climate Reality Project. He is now Missouri State Coordinator of the Citizens' Climate Lobby. He takes this tough topic to public groups, far and wide. This fall, Brian took his climate protection policy message to the offices of six U.S. Representatives - and to the Canadian House of Parliament!                          With the ambitious goal of getting a Carbon Fee & Dividend bill through Congress in 2017, this national organization of Citizen Climate Lobbyists is meeting legislators with "Admiration, Respect and Gratitude," and digging into substantial answers to questions they meet along the way. Brian maintains a positive, can-do focus as he advocates for climate protection. He details his group's policy proposal, including expert reviews and support, and shares his vivid experience with Earthworms' Jean Ponzi. Also check out Brian's report from his summer job as a ranger at Crater Lake National Park, where he educates Park visitors about Climate Change.  Learn more at: www.citizensclimatelobby.org - and considering bringing Brian or one of his colleagues to speak to your group.   Music: Washboard Suzie, performed live at KDHX by Zydeco Crawdaddies, June 2009 THANKS to Josh Nothum, Earthworms engineer, and for assistance from Jon Valley.
