ENERGY and ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE   (January 1)

Two  energy-related events will take place in Woods Hole on January  1st.   

At 11:00 am, there will be a citizens gathering at the Woods Hole Community  
Hall, on Water Street, to  introduce a new discussion about energy, the  
environment, and human rights.
The Falmouth Clergy Association is sponsoring this event with support from  
the Sierra Club's Cape Cod and Islands Group.   The big question for  New Years 
Day is, "How  can  different groups work together to provide  all people with 
sources of energy that are safe, affordable, adequate,  and  sustainable?"    
What's needed on the Cape and islands this  winter?

State Representative Matthew Patrick, who has been involved with energy  
issues for many years, will be the main speaker.    Louise  Patrick, who is an 
authority on fuel assistance programs, will speak about human  needs and energy 
use  in our region.   The Sierra Club will  outline its program  for providing 
local families with basic information  about fuel assistance and home energy 
conservation.    Admission  to this event is free.   However, there will be a 
collection to help  support the work of the Housing Assistance Corporation.

At noon, the annual family walk around Eel Pond in Woods Hole will  begin.... 
  Families are encouraged to bring holiday noisemakers,  costumes, and flags 
that are appropriate for New Years Day.     After the walk and a brief 
gathering at Waterfront Park, there will be a potluck  party at the Woods Hole 
Community Hall.    Once again, everybody  is invited!    It's free.

The New Years Day events in Woods Hole will help to bring human rights and  
environmental justice concerns into the continuing conversation about coastal  
protection and energy.

For more information, please call  the  volunteers  at (508) 457-0449.

Greetings!

Woods Hole Sea Grant is accepting applications for the 2008 Dean John A. 
Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship program. This one-year program is open 
to any student, regardless of citizenship, who, on April 5, 2007, is in 
a graduate or professional program in a marine or aquatic-related field 
at a United States-accredited institution of higher education.

Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship was established in 1979 to 
provide a unique educational experience to students who have an interest 
in ocean, coastal and Great Lakes resources and in the national policy 
decisions affecting those resources. The program, which is sponsored by 
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National 
Sea Grant College Program, matches highly qualified graduate students 
with "hosts" in the legislative and executive branches of government 
located in the Washington, D.C. area, for a one year paid fellowship. 
The program is named in honor of one of Sea Grant's founders, former 
NOAA Administrator, John A. Knauss. Additional information on the 
fellowship can be found at: 
http://www.seagrant.noaa.gov/knauss/knaussapplicationinfo.html.

Completed applications must be submitted no later than 4:00 p.m. on 
March 7, 2007, to:

Dr. Judith E. McDowell, Director
Woods Hole Sea Grant Program
193 Oyster Pond Road, MS #2
Woods Hole, MA 02543-1525

If you have any questions, please contact Sea Grant at (508) 289-2398 or 
seagrant at whoi.edu.
