(from Pat Rathmann) “Our UUCP friend and law professor Anastasia Telesetsky is giving a talk on “Planet Ocean: Why the Law of the Sea Matters in 21st Century America” This Wednesday at 12 noon in the Fiske Room. I plan on going. Maybe we can get her to give an evening presentation for our group.”
A presentation that will launch the Palouse Region chapter of Citizens Climate Lobby and explain the case for a revenue-neutral federal carbon fee and dividend. William Barron, Regional Coordinator for Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL), will lead the presentation. Saturday, March 29 from 1 pm to 4 pm, Fiske Room of the 1912 Center.
The Palouse Region CCL is officially started now, following a great opening meeting last Saturday with front page coverage in the Daily News on Monday! (One of the first items to discuss will be the best time for everyone to meet.) The following is from an email from Rob Briggs and Pat Rathmann last Thursday:
We will have our first regular meeting on Monday April 7 at 7:00 pm in the sanctuary (up stairs) of the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Palouse, 420 E 2nd St, Moscow, ID.
The agenda for the meeting will include listening to the national Citizen’s Climate Lobby conference call. These calls are invariably upbeat and informative and provide concrete actions that we can take to move the campaign for effective federal climate legislation forward.
Additionally, we will be taking initial steps to organize into interest groups to tackle various educational, outreach, and lobbying activities. We’re hoping to establish multiple interest groups that feel empowered to act, and then use the monthly meetings simply for coordination and sharing successes.
There is a wide variety of productive roles you can play in CCL. These range from reliably reading local newspapers, to serving as behind-the-scenes climate science advisor, tabling, giving presentations, writing letters to the editor, and meeting with Senators and House members. There are important roles for all skill sets and comfort levels.
As Bill Barron mentioned several times on Saturday, CCL likes things to run on time. We’re hoping to run our chapter meetings in a disciplined and effective way that is respectful of everyone’s time. CCL suggests that monthly meetings run for two hours. We rather like the idea of finishing early and retiring to some gathering place to socialize and strategize informally. CCL provides great opportunities for us to innovate locally, share nationally, and thereby attach a big multiplier to our creative efforts.
Panel discussion to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Wilderness Act, 4 pm Thursday at the University of Idaho,College of Law – room 103, 703 S Rayburn Drive, Moscow. Discussion topics include the history and future of the Wilderness Act and wilderness management challenges. Sponsored by the University of Idaho Environmental Law Society.
WHAT: The University of Idaho Sustainability Center is hosting an interdisciplinary, student-led panel discussion on the future of food entitled, “Feeding the Future”.
DETAILS: Students from International Studies, Agricultural Economics, Bioregional Planning, and Business will discuss complex food systems issues in a panel discussion hosted and moderated by the University of Idaho Sustainability Center. Topics will range from the value of sustainable agriculture practices to finding the balance between using acreage for biofuels versus food production. Audience members will have the opportunity to participate in the discussion with questions, and pizza will be provided for attendees. The diverse viewpoints and backgrounds of the student panelists will provide an opportunity to learn about the importance of finding collaborative solutions to global food issues.
WHERE: University of Idaho Commons, Crest Room, 4th Floor

Please find attached a draft agenda for our meeting tomorrow (Wednesday) at 5:30 pm at the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Palouse (downstairs), 420 E 2nd St, Moscow. We will be serving pizza early during the meeting.
If you can listen to the national CCL call in advance of the meeting here, that will be helpful but is not essential. I found Jay Butera’s story particularly inspiring.
For each month’s call, CCL prepares an action sheet here for the month. Writing members of congress is the top action this month, and I will bring materials so that we can generate letters and postcards to our members of congress during the meeting (time permitting).
Please try to arrive promptly. We will need to finish before 7:00 pm, as many of us will be participating in the planning session (7 pm in Fiske Room, 1912 Center) for community activities to complement the Years of Living Dangerously series showing at the Kenworthy.
