[SustainableTompkins] Tompkins County EMC Still Meeting

[senecajean at aol.com]

Well, with everything else being postponed (Sustainable Tompkins Community Gathering, Earth Day Planning meeting etc) for those who are on relatively good roads and want to brave it, the TC EMC is meeting tonight at 7 PM and here is their agenda. I checked recently and they are still on; will let you know if that changes.

Last evening the EMC's energy committee endorsed a Carbon Tax resolution...somewhat revised from the one passed by Ithaca Common Council but I haven't seen it yet. Looks to be some other items of interest also ie Cayuga Inlet.
