From high gas prices, to exreme weather patterns, it seems like everyone is suddenly talking about the energy crisis, global warming, and climate change. Unfortunately, a lot of this discussion has been marked by lack of creative vision when it comes to solutions, and instead we are seeing old ideas like nuclear power and offshore drilliing being introduced again.
We need to take action to make sure that our leaders start taking proactive action that can bring about real change in reducing global warming. One way to let elected officials and candidates know that you want them to take this issue seriously is to write letters to your local papers. These letters are often read by elected officials and candidates and let them know that their constituents demand action on this issue.
