Agenda

1. Introductions

3. Mission statement

4. Radio show appearance for Kunstler just before the MREA Fair. Do we want to have one or two people make press arrangements if he’s willing?

5. WisDOT Connections 2030. Do we want to form a workgroup on DOT’s transportation plans, monitor, and provide input?

6. International Mercury Conference, August 6-11, Monona Terrace. Do we need a workgroup to plan community events to complement the conference?

7. Presentation or booth at Pro Walk/Pro Bike, Sept. 5-8, Monona Terrace. Mark Daugherty’s presentation would be great. We’d need people to staff a booth.

8. Organizing an event to promote peak oil preparedness for local governments. This would be a major undertaking.

9. Getting speakers, like Heinberg, Sobastopol (CA) mayor, on local media or invited to local conferences/events. Do we need a workgroup to find events and work other organizers, and to arrange media?

10. Formal structure. Does the group need one yet?
