ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
You are invited to an unusual meeting that will focus attention on energy
issues - including global warming - and human rights in Massachusetts.
This meeting will take place on Saturday morning, February 3rd, in Falmouth.
It is sponsored by the Sierra Club's Cape Cod and Islands Group with
support from local community and religious groups.
The first question that we will ask is not, "How can we build a better
windmill?"
The first question on February 3rd will be, "How can we provide all people
with adequate sources of energy that are safe, affordable, and sustainable?"
(A source of energy that destroys the natural environment that sustains
the community is not "safe" and it's probably not "sustainable.")
The goal is to bring environmental justice concerns into the energy policy
discussion.
The February 3rd meeting will present the national Sierra Club's energy plan
- including its response to global warming - and its work for environmental
justice. The Cape Cod Group's continuing work in supporting fuel assistance
and weatherization programs will be discussed. All people are invited.
Free admission.
The meeting will take place on Saturday morning, February 3rd, starting at
10:00 am. It will be held at the Unitarian Universalist church at 840
Sandwich Road in East Falmouth, on Cape Cod. The building is easily accessible
for people with disabilities. For additional information and travel
directions, contact Robert Murphy at _murphydalzell at aol.com_
