Last June I posted about the teens with whom I am working to address environmental threats: Teen Revolution 2011 - State of the Ocean Update. The group is now called Scaffold Earth, Mission Preservation (or SEM Preservation) and their tag line is “Teens Preserving the Earth to Preserve Ourselves." We are gearing up to take on the North Carolina legislature and its ridiculous 2012 proposed environmental destruction legislation, with meetings to begin in January. Monday night (tonight) at 8:00 we will be on Marilyn Shannon’s Internet show to talk about it. To listen in, follow this link: Breaking Free.
I think this comic represents what the teens are up against in the form of pushback by the ultra conservative political establishment, big business and the non-critical thinking and highly consuming segment of the American public, but the teens seem unfazed. Here is the comic link if you want to read more: Minus #37 - KIWIS BY BEAT! I find it especially on the mark because our group is a heavily girl dominated group for whatever reason.
