On July 28th, over 550 people - delegates, media, guests, sponsors and host members
- attended the Coalition's "New Energy for America" Reception and Town
Hall Energy Forum. We
gathered in the State Room overlooking Boston Harbor but the forceful, rolling
panel of political, labor and environmental leaders which held our attention for
two and a half hours. They
declared energy self-sufficiency, clean renewables, energy efficiency and conservation
are America's best future. This future will create millions of new jobs, strengthen
our economy, protect our families' health and safety, and free us from our nightmare
dependence on foreign oil. "New
Energy for America" is also hope for the planet - cutting pollution and greenhouse
gas emissions from dirty fossil fuel, its extraction, dangerous transport, combustion
and emission of carbon gases into the atmosphere. A
monumental, government-led transition to New Energy is urgently needed, needed
to blunt global warming and its inevitable habitat disruption, massive species
extinctions, biblical storms, floods, droughts, and plagues, and carbon pollution's
devastating impacts on agriculture, water, the oceans, peoples, cities,
and economies. With
columnist Derrick Z. Jackson and senior reporter Don Gillis in attendance, the
Boston Globe took note of this emergent "blue-green" alliance:
7/30/04 - The new
ecological movement, Derrick Z. Jackson, Columnist. The Boston Globe.
