Project Slingshot Winners Announced! via It's Getting Hot In Here April 22nd, 2008 at 22:14

Millions of people are celebrating and rallying for climate action this Earth Day, but we’re also seeing how dedicated young people are to spending more than just one day working to pass legislation and find community solutions to global warming. Today, Focus the Nation and Clif MOJO are proud to announce three projects that will be examples of that determination to make positive and sustainable change through Project Slingshot. After weeks of deliberation, the Project Slingshot judges have zeroed in on three projects to propel from ideas into action this summer with grants of $10,000 each. With 45 great applications full of ideas on how to spark more youth action on climate change, the judges didn’t have an easy job, but the winners stood out for their commitment to innovation and...

Focus the Nation: Big Push to 1000 via It's Getting Hot In Here October 19th, 2007 at 18:00

What’s up, youth climate movement? Focus the Nation here. We haven’t spoken in a little while, but exciting things have been happening in our crazy little attic at Lewis & Clark College. Just earlier this week our 900th team signed up, bringing us within double digits of our total goal: 1000 groups registered for Focus the Nation. Can you taste it? Yeah, it’s that close. But close only counts, as they say, in horseshoes and hand grenades. Our goal, admittedly far-fetched, is to get to 1000 by next week. So it’s all hands on deck time. I know you’re all getting stoked for Power Shift (and we are too — see you there!) but take just a minute to check out our wishlist and look for any school in your area that hasn’t signed up. Then give them a...

This morning, New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, who’s been consistently and vehemently writing about the need for a clean energy revolution for the past several years, just threw down the gauntlet, and he’s calling us out! In this morning’s article, he called us “‘Generation Q’ - the Quiet Americans” and accused us of being “too quiet, too online for our own good, and for the country’s own good,” saying we’re “so much less radical and politically engaged than they need to be.” Well, Mr. Freidman is right about one thing: Facebook “causes” and email petitions just won’t cut it! But he’s wrong if he thinks young people aren’t organizing and building a movement that will do...
