    What do you guys think of doing an action for this?

    Fossil Fools Day

    On April 1, 2008 young people from around the world are rising up to show the world that we refuse to fool around with climate change and our future. Led by the Energy Action Coalition, Canadian Youth Climate Coalition, and Rising Tide, on April 1 we will take collective action to turn the tide away from fossil fuel dependence and towards a clean and just energy future. Plan an action to spur green job creation in your community today.

    We Are Powerful

    Together we can build a more just and sustainable future. We are calling on communities across Canada and the US to show the fossil fuel industry and bad politicians that we mean business by organizing a Fossil Fools Day action today. Ideas include, but are by no means limited to: rallies at gas stations or representative offices, Critical Mass bike rides, office occupations, Billionaire’s for Tar Sands/Coal demonstrations, spank the bank visits, high-powered projections of solutions on the side of dirty energy factories, Board of Trustees meeting take-overs, hold a clean energy camp at a dirty energy site, do solar installations, make spoof videos and websites, offer alternative, clean energy bus rides, do some coal mining of your own at a coal company’s headquarters…

    This April 1st join with people around the world to end the fossil fuel age and stand up for a new energy future. Get more information by visiting the website now http://fossilfools08.org.

    See you in the streets!
