Arrived!
Here at the Annual Meeting and set up display for Carol (National Board, Local Church Ministries). People wandering around and having fun meeting each other, hopefully all who attend get to know someone new.
And our second workshop, "What to do about coal?" [my title] Highly informative session about eliminating one coal steam electric plant is the equivalent of removing one million cars from the local roads. Of course, deleting a coal plant has a huge impact: jobs, local economy, and what about the electricity it generated? Fair trade for people not dying of pollution or rising world temperatures? Society decides. Interesting discussion.
Interacting with Davita, our keynote speaker, certainly not a speaker who crouches behind a podium with a canned speech! Highly enjoyable.
