This is a 350 blast that is worthy of everyone's attention:
Dear Friends,
A last-minute addition to the weekend's festivities: Representatives from the White House have asked if they could talk with some of the people organizing events across the country.
At 5 p.m. tomorrow, Jon Carson, who is Chief of Staff at President Obama's Council on Environmental Quality, will answer some questions that you might want to raise about how the Administration plans to combat climate change. We won't have long to talk with him, so we're going to have to cull down the questions to two or three.
But we're very eager to hear what he has to say--in part because he was the National Field Director for the Obama campaign in 2008. That is to say, he understands movement building, and we need to get his thinking on how we might keep this 350 ball rolling ever faster! No need to go easy on the guy: tough questions are probably best, because we've obviously got a lot of work to do.
So visit this link to learn about how to join the call and submit your questions: www.350.org/whcall
And here's the basic dial-in info:
When: The call will start at 5pm PST/ 8pm EST
Conference call number: (201) 793-9022
Conference room number: 9465206
Mostly, just be pleased that the White House has begun to respond to the movement you're creating. Just as with the announcement last week about solar panels, your input makes a difference.
Thanks,
May Boeve, US Campaign Director
