CAUSE Online invites and welcomes all concerned citizens from across Alberta, North America & around our world to join us, access/increase our wealth of resources and participate in Alberta's most extensive online energy & sustainability discussion forums -- exchange ideas, information & advice that will help improve our thinking and help both Alberta and Canada reduce our unreasonably large contributions towards the destruction of our planet! Canadians and North Americans need to improve the most. [Believe it or not, Canada (33 million people) uses more electricity than all of India (1.2 billion people), yet Canada shamelessly tells India to reduce consumption! ;-] IF OUR GROUP DESCRIPTION DOESN'T CONVINCE YOU TO JOIN US, PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE CAUSE DOING AND IF YOU CAN HELP! We also need all Albertans (and our Sakatchewan, British Columbia & Montana neighbours) to also contribute to Alberta's most active energy & sustainability events calendar.
If you are offering sustainability related services, have ideas or projects needing advice/help/volunteers , or want to become more energy independent (reducing energy consumption, going off grid, growing food etc...); we are a group of extraordinary citizens helping and supporting each other to advance our common sustainability CAUSE.
CAUSE membership consists of DIY off-gridders, energy industry professionals & entepreneurs, engineers, inventors, investors, educators, environmentalists, healthy planet / human health advocates, farmers, food security advocates, permaculture & uban gardening advocates, locavores, paleo-dieters, vegetarians, vegans, raw foodists, sustainable food lovers, architects, city planners, green realtors, doctors, lawyers, accountants, students, politicians, religious leaders, energy-security self-sufficiency advocates, and everything else, all contributing to our group knowledge base, ideas, skills & abilities which CAUSE contributes towards the greater movement towards sustainability.
CAUSE is increasing public, media, corporate and government awareness and discussion of the energy choices we are making, the energy choices that are also being made on our behalf by our corporations & governments, and advocating sustainable solutions to ensure they all rightly act in the public interest and also consider the welfare the planet we all share! Our small group of citizens has raised tens of thousands of dollars to bring numerous world renouned sustainability experts to speak in Alberta and we've positively influenced numerous gov't/corporate decisions etc.... Join us to see and share in all of our successes!
Our brand new, rapidly expanding meetup community features the most extensive local environmental events calendar available posting over 60 events this March (2009). We are adding an online book club, and documentary film club where CAUSE members can review and reccommend books and films (even read & watch them online) and we'll organize book discussion and movie nights and countless other things as more members join. Join our extensive discussion forums covering the entire spectrum of sustainable living to energy topics (everything from Frugal Living & Raw Food Diets, to Human/animal Power & Green Building etc.) and offering a wide variety of other resources from video links to ecological footprint calculators etc. to keep everybody informed and interested.
If there is something we are not doing that you would like to see us do, please join our group and volunteer to help us get it started by clicking on my name "Atul" in the left margin and sending me an email.
Our world is depending on us! We need to spread alternative sustainable renewable ethical green energy lifestyles and thinking everywhere!
Lets join together, learn, discuss and move our CAUSE forward!!!
