Hello Wrenches,<br><br>
ALEC is strategizing its next attack on renewable energy. According to
the article linked below;<br><br>
"Much of ALEC's agenda for this week's meeting is returning to the
organization's focus on promoting the extraction, production and
exportation of fossil fuels while putting up roadblocks for renewable
energy initiatives where it can."<br>

<br>
ALEC is a hugely funded lobbying organization that can run its spin
campaign through the echo chamber of the media. Additionally it employs
an army of well-paid lobbyists that influence authorities at all levels.
Most of us are already feeling the effects of the assault. <br>
<br>
It is important that renewable energy workers be informed, and educate
officials and the public wherever possible. There are now many thousands
of us now, and we can influence the debate. <br><br>
