On Saturday we were invited to a candle light vigil at the Courthouse to help campaign for a <350ppm treaty at the Copenhagen World Climate conference. It only seemed sensible to us (myself and Duncan Oliver, our new shop mechanic) that we bike to the event and bring along our pedal generator to shine a (LED) spotlight on the event banner. However, we made the news in today's Dominion Post. You can read the article here.
When it was our turn to talk we also encouraged everyone to do their part for carbon dioxide reduction by driving less and using sustainable transportation (walking, biking, transit and carpool) to get where you need to go. Thanks to all of you who are already doing this. If you must drive, you can still make the roads more fun for others by driving at or below the speed limit and paying attention to others who are sharing the road. Even if they aren't in cars.
