Peak Oil, Energy Issues & The End of SuburbiaScreening followed by discussion and next stepsWednesday, January 27, 2010
6:00pm - 8:45pm
Western Addition Library, 1550 Scott Street - one block East of Divisadero and Geary. Look for us in a meeting room at the library.
For this month's General Meeting, we'll be meeting at the Western Addition Library branch for a screening of the powerful film, The End of Suburbia followed by an hour-long presentation and discussion about energy issues and concrete steps we can take to move towards greener energy.
One exciting development locally we'll discuss is Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) and "Clean Power SF" which will allow us to move away from PG&E's pollution-heavy energy generation to wind, solar and other clean sources.
http://cleanpowersf.org/Come find out how to make sure this materializes and how to keep PG&E from deceiving the voters once again into voting against their own interests!
Schedule:
6 pm - 7:20: movie screening
7:20 - 7:30; announcements: signature gathering for Repeal Prop 8 campaign, signing forms to get statewide Green candidates on the ballot, county council recruitment, and other brief announcements
7:30-8:45: panel discussion with SF Peak Oil Task Force members Pat Gerber, Jeanne Rosenmeyer, and other experts
