After nearly two years of fighting global warming with the rest of my wonderful colleagues (and all of you awesome volunteers and activists!), it’s time for me to say farewell.
As I look back on my time here, there are a couple of things that really stick out to me – a series of town hall meetings for global warming (my first project ever!), rallying in the snow on Governor O’Malley’s birthday, celebrating green jobs in Baltimore, passing the strongest state-wide cap in the country, and moving on to Congress to push for real climate solutions on the federal level.
But what really sticks out to me are all the wonderful people that I’ve worked with – all of you, who are making a difference every day in this fight against global warming. Luckily for this polar bear, he doesn’t need Al Gore – he has all of you!
If you want to say good-bye to me in person, please join CCAN, LCV, Sierra Club and Environment MD for a volunteer thank you party this Saturday. We’ll be celebrating our victories on the state level, in appreciation of all your hard work.
When: Saturday May 30th, 5 pm to 8 pm
Where: Pavilion 2, Alpha Ridge Community Park, 11600 Old Frederick Rd Marriottsville, MD 21104
(We tried to pick a central location. This is close to where I-70 meets 32 outside of Baltimore)
Please RSVP so that we know how much food to get – we’ll provide burgers (veggie and non) and drinks. If you like, bring a side or a dessert to share!
Best of luck to all of you!
