Just a thought or two...

Hello all- from Shaina,
I just realized how computer/ web illiterate I am, as I've only just figured out how to use this now. But I love the ideas so far for Earth Day, and that was a really good point about the lights in Kimmel, Ellen. I think we should get NYU to shut off its lights that night maybe for an hour or so at least- in any building that's closed. Or maybe even an NYU lights out- like they did all around the world a few weeks ago. We've got such a great location for an event on Earth Day I think we should use it.

The group I am working with is called Friends of Brook Park and it is located in Mott Haven, the South Bronx. Check out the web site at http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/ . I think they had an event planned that day that did not go through, and in any event I'm sure it would be very difficult to go up there as a class. Perhaps we can work with them or have them participate in an event of our own imagination? Let me know what you all think, and I can contact Harry Bubbins, the director.
