Ojai Valley Green Coalition member Caryn Bosson is forming a ‘Low-Carbon Diet’ group in the Ojai Valley. This “30 day program to lose 5,000 lbs” is based on the 'Low Carbon Diet' workbook which was distributed at Supervisor Steve Bennett’s Valley-wide discussions last year.
Bosson cites these statistics: The typical American household generates 55,000 lbs. of carbon dioxide annually. Taken collectively, U.S. households directly produce about 8% of the planet's CO2 emissions, and through our purchases we are indirectly responsible for another 17%. By contrast, the typical German household contributes 27,000 lbs. and the average Swedish household's contribution is only 15,000 lbs.
The Low Carbon Diet program uses proven methodology grounded in extensive research. It involves households joining with other households to first measure their carbon footprint and then support each other in taking specific, measurable actions to reduce this footprint. According to Bosson “This could be something that educates and inspires our entire community and sets the stage for larger actions in the future.”
Click ‘Contact Us’ and mention 'Low Carbon Diet' in the subject line to join a small group that will explore the ‘Low Carbon Diet’ and turn your concern about global warming into specific, measurable action.

I don't like the earshot of all those lists he's making - it's like fetching too innumerable notes at philosophy; you sensible of you've achieved something when you haven't.
