<DIV>ENERGY POLICY ON THE COAST OF MASSACHUSETTS</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Energy prices on Cape Cod and on the Massachusetts islands are very
high. The economy is in bad shape..... The cold weather season
has started.... How can we help our neighbors while protecting our
region's natural environment? What does "environmental
justice" require in our region?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On Sunday afternoon, November 16th, environmentalists
and others will gather at Cape Cod Community College for a new
discussion about energy issues.... Leslie Fields, a senior staff
person for the national Sierra Club, will be one of the chief
speakers.... She'll discuss "energy justice" and global
warming.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>How do we solve environmental problems while protecting and helping
low-income families?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>State Senator Robert O'Leary will also be one of the major speakers.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The November 16th event is free... It starts at 2:00 pm at the Tilden
Arts Center.... Everybody invited.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Co-sponsors include Cape Light Compact, the Sierra Club's Cape Cod and
Islands Group, the Barnstable County Human Rights Commission, the Cape Cod
Council of Churches, and a long list of other organizations that are concerned
about human rights, human dignity, and environmental quality.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We'll have some practical information that families can use to obtain fuel
assistance.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The Woods Hole rally for "energy justice" will take place on January 1,
2009, on Water Street.</DIV>
<DIV>Every year - since the year 2001 - area residents have gathered
in Woods Hole to express support</DIV>
<DIV>for fuel assistance and affordable shelter on Cape Cod.... It's
a local tradition....</DIV>
