[Peak Oil Action] Vermont Peak Oil Political Action Group needs your help!

[VPON political action alerts]

Hi folks,
Thank you for your interest in joining the Vermont Peak Oil Political 
Action Group. The group is forming at an opportune time, as there is 
interest from key legislators to move legislation related to peak oil 
forward. We need your help now to help craft the message to them and 
in January to show your support for the message.

As we discussed at the last Vermont Peak Oil Network meeting, a group 
of us in the Political Action Group (PAG) are working on our own peak 
oil report, which we plan to present to the legislature in January. 
The Senate Natural Resources and Energy Committee will be considering 
legislation during its first weeks that the chair, Ginny Lyons, 
wishes to incorporate policies related to peak oil into. We are 
slated to testify to her committee in one of the first two weeks of 
the session.

We want to get a broad range of views from our group included in the 
report. To that end, a small group of us have worked to create a 
rough draft. We would like your help in commenting on the draft of 
the report next week.

Yes, I know it's a poor time of the year for that sort of thing, but 
the report will only be 20-25 pages. And you can choose to 
concentrate on one or several sections, if you wish.

Early next week, I'll send you information on how to download a draft 
of the report. We'll have a blog set up where you can leave your 
comments. We will also give you an email address to submit comments 
to.

We're excited about this opportunity to make a difference in 
Vermont's future. Please set aside some time next week to send us 
your comments. Comments will be accepted until the end of the year.

Thanks, and happy holidays!

Cheers,
Carl
