DOMINION OVER ALL
SAFE, North Shore Colombia Solidarity, HealthLink, and Clean Water Action are sponsoring a video production for Salem Access TV that will be broadcast live in Salem on Channel 16 on July 21, 2008, at 7 pm. Pat Gozemba is producing this show, focused on the corporate practices of Dominion, asking the question, “Does Dominion demonstrate socially, economically, and environmentally, responsible behavior at its coal-burning plants in Salem and Somerset, MA; in Virginia in proposing a new coal plant; and in Colombia where it purchases some of its coal?”
It was a HUGE Success! If you missed it, or lost info, you can now find links to all the fair vendors!
Choose Clean Energy- Support Renewable Energy- Reduce your Carbon Footprint
June 14th will also be declared Clean Energy Day in Salem- all residents and businesses are encouraged to support the Clean Energy Choice program.
SAFE is actively supporting energy efficiency and support for clean energy choices- please see our current campaigns & "Act Now".
SAFE, along with the City of Salem's Renewable Energy Task Force is promoting residents and businesses to purchase Renewable Energy. We are working towards a bonus solar array (we need 130 new signups by June 30, 2008!)- help us meet this goal so we can see more renewable energy here in Salem!
We understand that money is tight- so first take some simple steps that will save you money, then invest that savings in renewable energy- that will take the "pain" out of your wallet while also providing double the benefit when it comes to energy and greenhouse gas contribution.
