4/22 - Deadline to submit Keystone XL Pipeline comment. visit 350.org and click on KXL Comment link
On a level of logical order the future condition of the globally shared environment supersedes the potential expansion of various intertwined fiat economies. From the Anthropocene, to even consider much less manifest rewards from a contribution to planetary ecocide is nothing short of madness. “Good Jobs” don’t make the planet hotter. By all means take some time to grieve the passing of the Holocene, but in the meantime reject the Keystone XL pipeline.

Here’s how Time put it yesterday: "There are many climate problems a President can’t solve, but Keystone XL isn’t one of them. It’s a choice between Big Oil and a more sustainable planet." As with those historic moments at Stonewall or Selma, "The right answer isn’t always somewhere in the middle."
Thanks for all you’ve done, and thanks for all you’ll do.

P.S. - We're also going to be hosting strategy sessions across the country on March 10th to cover these things and more. A few have already been set up -- see here: act.350.org/event/2013-strategy-sessions/ -- but if you'd like to host a gathering to plan on all these things together, click to sign up here: act.350.org/event/2013-strategy-sessions/create/

2) Would anyone like to help paint a rooftop or two?
