You heard it here first, the Obama Administration will be investing heavily into the nation’s future by spending your (future) tax dollars on further developing renewable energy, retrofitting federal buildings to be energy efficient, and upgrading the nations’ energy and transportation infrastructure.
To quote President-elect Obama, “However we got here, the problems we face today are not Democratic problems or Republican problems. The dreams of putting a child through college, or staying in your home, or retiring with dignity and security know no boundaries of party or ideology.”
Friends, we must all participate in building up America, again, to be the leader that the world expects and demands. We must lend our support (time, money, expertise and skills) to the endeavors that move the United States and world in the right direction. Be sure to communicate with your representatives in Congress to tell them about the problems and your communities face. Our government officials need our input as leaders can not lead without the feedback from their followers.
Also, be active in reviewing the legislation that eventually is proposed in Congress. It may contain provisions that do not move America in the right direction. Tell our government leaders your opinion. This, my friends, is more valuable than voting and you have earned the right to voice your opinion.

The CarbonTwin project was created to promote free exchange of Carbon Offsets between members who simply share their carbon offsets (for no compensation!) with members with higher carbon footprints.
