WE ALL BREATHE THE SAME AIR: WHY TWIN CITIANS OPPOSE INCINERATORS

01/26/2009 19:00

Two anti-burner activists will be on the program--Joellen Cross and Nancy Hone. Cross was active against the Phillips Wood Burner and is author of the pamphlet "Say NO to Air Pollution". Hone is the coordinator of Neighbors Against the Burner (NAB), the group that opposed the Rock-Tenn Incinerator that was to be located in St. Paul at I-94 and the Cretin & Vandalia Exits. They will talk about their struggles, how opposition was organized and the outcomes.

The forum will be held on Monday, January 26th at 7:00 PM at Mayday Books, 301 Cedar Avenue South, on the West Bank in Minneapolis.

It is sponsored by the Climate Crisis Coalition of the Twin Cities (3CTC). The event is free and open to the public. It will be preceded by the Clean-Energy Vigil to Cool Down the Planet at 5:00 PM out on the Plaza outside the bookstore (Weather permitting.) and the 3CTC Business Meeting at 6:00 PM. All are welcome. For more information, EMAIL: christinefrank@visi.com or PHONE: 612-879-8937. SAVE MOTHER EARTH! SEE YOU THERE!
