John Rizzo writes: Two statements that I must take issue with:
The Sierra Club seems sorta kinda OK there, in the native Four Corners, but here, Mary R. says they promoted Lennar's development in the shipyard.
This is a false statement. We absolutely do not support or promote Lennar.
And, in Obama's Illinois, around the Great Lakes, some local Sierra Club chose "clean coal" as their greenhouse gas limiting solution.
I don't know of ANY organization that has put more staff time, volunteer time, and money into fighting coal nationwide than the Sierra Club. This includes Illinois. Here are some Illinois victories against coal: http://www.sierraclub.org/environmentallaw/coal/plantlist.asp# IllinoisTaylorvilleEnergyCenter The Sierra Club spends a lot of resources and effort fighting new coal plants and the myth of "clean coal." Coal is also tied to the Sierra Club's Mercury and Clean Water campaigns. See this web site for a great deal of information about coal and Club efforts: http://www.sierraclub.org/coal/ One of the Sierra Club's campaigns is called "Stopping the Coal Rush" led by the Club's Environmental Law Program. At the web site, be sure to sign the petition to end mountaintop coal mining that is literally destroying Appalachia. John Rizzo PS. For the past three years, the local Bay Area chapter has been expending a lot of staff and volunteer to pass CCA (Tom and Ross), 360 MW renewable energy. It will finally be introduced at the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday. We are also working to get CCA implemented in other cities across California. _______________________________________________ San Francisco Green Party Active Members List To unsubscribe or edit your options, go here: https://list.sfgreens.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/active
