Want to be involved in climate change efforts in your community? Check out the American Climate Corps.

I spent some interesting time this morning browsing the job opportunities and organization goals. It looks like a genuine effort to get people involved in the sort of work we're going to need to do to mitigate the impacts of climate change.

Call Congress to extend the Affordable Connectivity Program

The Affordable Connectivity Program, which subsidizes Internet access and therefore makes Internet connections possible for many people, is set to run out of funding in about a week. The end of this program will cause many low-income people to lose Internet access; in my state alone, 1 in 5 households get rebates from the ACP, and many of them would be unable to continue to afford Internet without that support.

There is a very easy call and email script set up here:
