Are you clear on what's going on in the clash between Russia and Georgia, for instance?

So remember to tune in, and I hope you like it!  I’ll post the text after it has aired.

I'll be giving a 20-minute talk at the Rio Chama Steakhouse tonight as part of the Green Drinks networking series, so if you live in Santa Fe I hope you will come out. Note that there is a $10 cover and RSVP requested. Details are also posted online here.

I'll give an update on energy issues in our community, including some tips on how Santa Fe can adopt the best practices being developed in Europe and Canada to deal with rising energy costs and declining supplies of oil and gas. As always, it involves harvesting energy from local, renewable sources and having it delivered by locally owned, independent businesses!


Green Drinks Networking Gathering: Have a drink while you meet, mingle, network and learn with like-minded green folks!
When: Tuesday, July 29th at 6:30 p.m.
Where: Rio Chama Steakhouse, 414 Old Santa Fe Trail
Room: President's Room with an outdoor patio and full bar.
Cost: $10
RSVP: please e-mail missynewfield@yahoo.com if you are planning to attend.
