I'm not a supporter of very many groups. Not really a joiner -- years of working in what should be the open-minded, disciplined-thinking setting of academia and other personality tendencies have made me very wary of "group-think," and individualistic and self-contained in many ways.
I tend to identify fatal flaws in the thinking of whatever groups I encounter, from the Sierra Club to the Tea Party.
But I've always been quite fond of Interfaith Power and Light. This group, which was part of the study for my PhD dissertation (on religious groups and climate mitigation), works to encourage members of the mainline religious denominations to consider climate change and energy problems.
Here's the latest news, whereby they attempt a petition drive to Congress and the President to say "enough is enough."
This page is for memories, dedicated to the students, faculty, and staff of the old, real Unity College, and the people that made it. You know who you are.

I'm sorry to have to say that the number of spam comment postings has required that we turn off anonymous comment posting. There's been a massive boom in what seems like computer-automated spam comments with links to web pages that advertise cheap, nasty, bad-for-you products, mostly cigarettes.
From now on, you'll have to be a registered user to comment on this blog.
If you had something you wanted to say, but really didn't want your name attached to it for some good reason, you should email Mick at mwomersley@unity.edu
I'll protect your confidentiality and post your comment for you.
Thanks for posting this! Important information to share...
