A team of 22 Climate Action volunteers ran a drive to collect
comments to Chancellor Bud Peterson, requesting that he sign a
committment to make this campus a leader in reducing our impact on
global warming. The team gathered more than 700 requests from CU
students in less than a week.
The effort was part
of a nationwide Climate Action week, during which the Campus Climate
Challenge worked alongside Program Council to bring a free showing of An Inconvenient Truth
to more than two hundred students on this campus. In answer to Al
Gore's documentary on global warming, two Climate Action interns
constructed a short film, A Convenient Truth, listing easy ways
for individuals to reduce their daily impact on global warming. House
Majority Leader Alice Madden, and Senator Ron Tupa were featured in the
film.
