People from many parts of Houston showed up today at our "Global Warming Cafe". We had a short presentation on the science of climate change; we had many conversations about our concerns and our hopes for the future and then we had a short workshop for people to identify what they can do to reduce their own carbon footprint. The group was small, passionate and pumped up for STEP IT UP!

Twenty three people gathered on Saturday morning for coffee, breads and conversation about climate change. We started the event off with a prayer for all to take action to protect the Earth and all that dwell here. We learned about the science of climate change and then we had some great conversation about our concerns and our hopes for the future. Finally, we discovered some of the actions that we can take to reduce our own carbon footprint. We are pumped up about STEP IT UP 2007!
