On Thursday, January 25 I went to a meeting of the Committee for a Better Environment. The meeting took place in the Council Chambers room of City Hall in College Park. When I first arrived, there were only five or six people. I helped myself for lemonade while they chatted. The Committee also offered The Chesapeake a newspaper from the Maryland Chapter of the Sierra Club along with other informative material and leaflets, such as Cool Cities and one promoting the Maryland Clean Cars Bill.
The main event of the meeting is the showing of the film "Kilowatt Ours". It's a 38-minute documentary about where our electricity comes from, how it effects the environment and how it's easy to save money on our bills and why we should convert to renewable energy. The film's title is partially a play on the words "Kilowatt Hours". It was a very interesting thing about something you will not see in the "liberal media"(/end sarcasm). The meeting was also attended by a UMD environmental group.
If you're interested in the CfBE, check out their website. Their next meeting has yet to be determined.
