Powershift '09

Powershift '09 is massive training conference focused on advocating for climate and energy solutions to curb the effects of climate change and help rebuiild the economy. With more than 10,000 students from all over the country, it is the largest ever youth climate event in history. It is also the catalyst for the largest climate lobby day in the US, with more than 350 meetings with members of congress set for Monday. Speakers include Van Jones and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. 

Keep an eye out for Wellstone Action staffers, because we are sending a bunch. Our staff will be there to train the trainers and to train over 3,000 students to lobby effectively. We are excited to be a part of such an impressive gathering of activists and we will let you know how it goes this weekend sometime after we get back. 

Below is a pic of some Campus Camp Wellstone staffers headed out to Powershift.
