Showing Us the Way
Remember what it was like to be a student in spring? There was so much to do – write term papers, study for finals, and there was always the desire to hang out with your friends on the green and absorb the sun after a long winter. National Wildlife Federation’s Campus Chill Out winners have taken time in their very busy lives to lead others in significantly reducing greenhouse gases on their campuses. With persistence, determination, and hope, together these students, faculty, and staff have implemented programs on their campuses that have removed 20,000 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and saved their campuses an estimated $5 million annually.
On this spring day, when I get even busier with cutting the lawn, weeding, and starting to prepare the garden beds, these Chill Out winners inspire me with their leadership. Their example reminds me that my actions too can make a difference and that it’s worth the time for me to take the steps I can in my own home to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. See NWF's Reduce Global Warming at Home to learn more about what you can do.

To who this may concern,I recently returned from a trip to Iquitoes,Peru.I am writing you,in the hopes that I can find a way to sponsor a guide from that region to be a guest speaker,about rainforest conservation and the great need to save the rainforest,what I need is a letter to invite him to the United States,because he cannot come without a visa from the Peruvian government,and his chances are much greater for getting a visa with a sponsor's letter or invitation,also he will need some help financially for a flight to get here.Please respond!!!We are fighting a time line for him to get to Lima to apply for his visa in May.Thank you in advance.Hoping for a miracle.Laurie Glover 1-586-489-1479
