[Winona Online Democracy]
Hello Online Democracy Members
Given the good discussion on Global warming online, you may care to join in a person to person one next Monday night March 12th at the Winona Middle School. Also, the world cafe process might give us some ideas of how we might use some of those discussion techniques in WOD.
Below is more information.. You can register on line or by calling in. Call 507-457-6405 or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] It would help our planning to know by the end of day tomorrow.. Thanks Randy SchenkatGlobal Warming is on everyone's front burner locally these days. Jerry Miller, with the City Council's blessing, has joined 400 other mayors nationally in signing the Mayors Climate Protection Agreement that calls on the city to curb carbon emissions and promote sustainability. The Frozen River Film Festival was chocked full of films and presentations aimed at raising environmental awareness. The Winona Daily News recently opined-Global Warming Debate-enough already; it's time to do something. Winona State University recently signed on to the American University and College Presidents Climate Commitment Document, which commits the University to assessing its climate footprint and then taking steps to reduce it. WAPS February 2007 Inside Your Schools Superintendent's Message says, "the ole orange and black is adding some green".
Sustain Winona and WAPS Community Education invite you to come together to start doing that something. Next month we will host a World Café on Global Warming so that you can discover new people, ideas and action items focused on what we can do can do today to minimize the impact of global warming in the future.
A World Café is a unique process for collaborative discussion and action. We will meet at café tables, share coffee and snacks with friends, neighbors and community members interested in creating a more sustainable community.
Our World Café on Global Warming will be held Monday, March 12 from 6:30-9:30 p.m. at the Winona Middle School Commons. The cost is free but pre-registration is required by March 8th. Call 507-457-6405 or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To learn more about the World Café process and Sustain Winona, visit www.theworldcafe.com and www.sustainwinona.org.
