Eban Goodstein, the founder of the Green House Network and Focus the Nation, is leading a new action for 2009: the National Teach-In on Global Warming Solutions.  As part of this effort, he is drafting with several students a list of ‘100 Days of Action.’ See this: national-teach-in-100-days-of-action

Your next writing assignment, after perusing the attachment, is to suggest an action for one of these days – that is, something for this draft list that Eban and his students haven’t thought of. The format of your assignment is as follows.

• First, identify the action: simply, what is it?
• Second, explain and justify the action: why would this action help to advance the goals of the National Teach-In?
• Finally, what will be needed to help make this action a success: how will Eban and his colleagues need to find allies and get mobilized in order to get results?

This assignment is due on Monday the 24th, before class.  The length is based on your judgment …  Please let me know, of course, if you have questions about this assignment.
