I am doing my best to spread awareness about global warming in my community.  I will soon be asking the County Board of Commissioners in Washington County to pass the US Cool Counties Climate Stabilization Declaration, and will be presenting them with over 40 signatures from attendees of the Washington County Peace Vigil in support of this action.  I am also starting classes at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon, next week, and I hope to get other students involved in asking the City of Forest Grove to reduce its global warming pollutants.  Like I say, I am doing my best, but the problems that confront us are sometimes daunting; there is so much to do, and so little time to save the planet.  Will you join me in getting local governments working on global warming?  Will you go to your city council, or your board of commissioners for the county, and ask them to act against climate change?  Please click here for step-by-step instructions on how to get your city working on reducing global warming pollutants (a similar plan of action can be used for county governments).  There are lots of things that cities and counties can do to fight climate change; please get involved and make sure your local government acts.
