Stopping MTR in Tennessee

If you live in Tennessee or Southern Kentucky, I strongly urge you to go to the following event tonight. I know “Save Our Cumberland Mountins” (SOCM) is involved, and I know they do great work, along with the other Tennessee groups.

They will be asking popular Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen (D) to end strip mining in Tennessee. I don’t know about yall, but I think that they can pull it off!
WHAT: Press Conference/Rally for community assets and just energy future!
WHEN.: Sept 27th @ noon EST (transportation from select areas provided, for more info contact lauren@socm.org)
WHERE: State Capitol – Legislative Plaza
CONTACT: lauren@socm.org or (865) 426-9455

Tennessee folks have already gotten plugs in the Chattanooga Times-Free Press, and the AP has picked up the story. Congrats guys!
