Subject: RE: BS: What've you done to improve the world?
I've given about 50 seminars training people have to save money on their energy bills, therefore using less energy and helping the enviroment. Many in low income communities.
I've trained 200 case workers for THAW (the heat and warmth fund) on energy for their work with low income.
I've trained 50 FIA (family independence agency) on the same.
I've worked with legal aid socieity, society of the aged, and other low income groups on energy.
I did a tv show that ran on cable on how to reduce your energy bill and mailed out 700 copies to people who requested one free of charge.
I made a presentation to the public service commission in Michigan to bring in 200 million megawatts of renewable energy in the next five years. That is enough to serve 300,000 homes. They accepted my proposal and we are out for bids. I can't think of a cooler project to be working on than in bringing in renewable energy to my state.
I book the contra dance series in my area. We provided a free dance for all our members as a thank you this past year.
