Power Shift 2009

January 23rd, 2009 · 1 Comment

EARTHLUST is attending this year’s Power Shift in DC. And we want you! We are also looking for housing in the DC area…

From the website:

From February 27th to March 2nd, 2009, young people from across the country will converge on Washington D.C. to take a message of bold, comprehensive and immediate federal climate action to Capitol Hill. We will leverage the momentum we have built through the Campus Climate Challenge, Power Shift 2007, and our election campaign Power Vote to pressure our politicians to take the action our generation demands.
Not only will we deliver our message of change to our elected officials, but we will continue to strengthen the climate and clean energy movement far beyond 2009 by infusing our nation’s next generation of leaders with new learning, skill, connection to each other, and opportunities for action and employment.
Our window of opportunity is short; the first 100 days of the new administration is critical in achieving real and significant changes immediately. We must use the time we have to redefine what is politically feasible and achieve what is scientifically and economically necessary to safeguard our future.
