[Sustain] Sustainability Working Group Meeting Next Thursday, Apr 26, 7:30pm

[Eric Brooks]

Hey all,

The Sustainability Working Group meeting is next Thursday Apr 26, 7:30pm 
at the Green Party office.

The main agenda item will be to strategise a plan for a Green 
counter-attack to the concerted promotion of nukes, 'clean coal', 
biofuels, carbon credit shell games, hybrid vehicles, and PG&E 
greenwashing media blitz, that are all currently taking the world and 
San Francisco by storm; dangerously masquerading as solutions to the 
global climate crisis.

There will also be an exciting update on the now imminent Community 
Choice Energy legislation/project, for a 50% renewable electricity 
powered San Francisco by 2020.

Other topics of discussion will be:

1) The looming Williams natural gas turbine and Transbay Cable 
installations, both of which would promote a huge increase in cheap 
fossil fuel availability - and threaten the Southeast side with yet more 
  toxic pollution.

2) A quick update on the happy death of pro-nuke and pro liquid natural 
gas moves in California.

and

3) How the Global Climate Crisis gives us a key organizing window to 
push hard for a massive increase in transit.

peace,

Eric B
