ROLL YOUR OWN BLACKOUT THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER JUNE 21, 2001 THURSDAY EVE,
7-10pm worldwide, all time zones
As an alternative to George W. Bush's energy policies and lack of
emphasis on efficiency, conservation and alternative fuels, there will be a
voluntary rolling blackout on the first day of summer, June 21 at 7pm -
10pm in any time zone (this will roll it across the planet).
Its a simple protest and a symbolic act. Turn out your lights from
7pm-10pm on June 21. Unplug whatever you can unplug in your house.
Light a candle to the Sungoddess, kiss and tell (or not), take a stroll
in the
dark, invent ghost stories, anything that's not electric - have fun in the dark.
Read the 1999 book "Natural Capitalism" by Hawken and Lovins to learn
that conservation/high efficiency technologies already ARE
on-the-shelf. If implemented these revolutionary ideas would pay
themselves off within five years, after which we'd be pumping far less
greenhouse gas into the atmosphere and saving bucks to boot.
Forward this email as widely as possible, to your government
representatives and environmental contacts.
Let them know we want global education, participation and funding in
conservation, efficiency and alternative fuel efforts -- and an end to
overexploitation and misuse of the earth's resources.
