Global Warming

Rolling Stone magazine is not often seen as being a source for good articles on current events and world happenings. I however, beg to differ and would like to offer up an example from the current month's edition: a very well written article by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the "Chief Prosecuting Attorney for the Hudson Riverkeeper and President of Waterkeeper Alliance." (source, www.robertfkennedyjr.com/about) So, having said all of that, please take the time, if you have not already, to read his article. It is my personal belief that everyone should know the truth about global warming and to also know that Al Gore is not the sole source of information on it. It's everyone's problem and we all need to be informed in order to take action. Here's the link:

Thanks for your post. Speaking of action on global warming . . . the U.S. Senate is likely to vote later today on the Bingaman Renewable Electricity Standard (RES) amendment, which would require electric utilities to obtain 15% of their electricity from renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, biomass and geothermal by 2020. More info here.

The inside word on the Bingaman amendment is that the vote will be very tight. If you support this first meaningful step to fight global warming, the time to weigh in is right now. You can reach any Senator's office through the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 or at powerofwind.com.
