[edit] What about small informational evening discussions......
What about this idea.... Within neighborhoods, sort of on the oldfashioned model of the Tupperware party, getting groups of people together to show and tell about energy descent ideas such as converting all your lightbulbs to compact flourescents, or insulating your home more, or _____________(you fill in the blank for what idea you want to tell others about). I have been starting to tell others about compact flourescents, and I bought a bunch of them at wholesale price and have been selling them really cheaply. But I am amazed at how few people know about them, and also people have a lot of questions and confusion about them. So it seems like it would be fun to have a 'demo' party about these lightbulbs.
- This is a good idea. Unfortunately, you have not signed your name to this entry so there is no way for me to follow up with you except by reponding here. I hope that we can discuss this further. One idea is by enlisting the precinct democrats. Orange county democrats are a grassroots organization and as such have the potential to be whatever the people who use it want. One of their resolutions is to support precinct based energy descent action plans. I can see the idea that you have expressed above as a potential action to be taken by your precinct.
