More Kilowatt Ours

Last Sunday we started viewing the video, "Kilowatt Ours," and this week we will finish the view. This video is very good in that it not only points out the problems with our energy consumption, it happily points to easy things we can all do to save energy and money. We'ver got some great advocates in the group. Please join us as we continue the discussion.
As always, excellent and loving childcare is provided.

Kilowatt Ours

This coming Sunday, June 26th, we're going to view the film "Kilowatts Ours: A Plan to Re-Energize America." This compelling documentary Jeff Barrie was produced in Nashville and filmed in southern Appalachia. It takes a careful look at the cost of producing electricity at the expense mountain-top removal. The subject is topical given the recent state legislative issuance of licenses to remove mountain tops in Tennessee. The cost of a kilowatt is much more than dollars we send in to the Power board. The cost hits our environmental, aesthetic and ecological pocketbooks in both the near and far-reaching future. Alternatives are possible-- we don't have to go this way.
