Greetings Friends,
This morning I was busy exploring the president’s website and boy is it a treasure! Similar to the prior transitional Change.gov site, WhiteHouse.gov has just about all the information regarding the Executive Branch that you could ever ask for. Did the previous Bush or Clinton administrations even have websites? haha, I’m sure they did but I can guarantee you they were nothing like this.

While poking around the site, I don’t know what made me happier; seeing the openness of information or finding that the “Contact Us” button was still up there. Here’s an excerpt from the Blog (That’s right, a blog!!! Complete with an RSS Feed and all!!!)
On Friday, Vice President Biden and a half dozen members of the Cabinet head to Philadelphia for the first meeting of the Middle Class Task Force. The topic? Green jobs, and looking at some of the innovative programs in Philly and PA that are bringing together universities, labor, the community, and sustainable businesses. The task force will produce a report that we’ll share broadly and hope will contribute to this momentum.
And finally, don’t forget to check out the
Powershift conference this weekend in DC. 10,000 youth organizers talking about climate and green jobs.
It is a good week for green jobs.
Exciting times yo! It pleases me so much to see how technology is being implemented so intelligently in this administration.
If you are curious, or have some time to kill, check out the site and its creamy goodness and try to hold back the tears of joy as it becomes clearer we are entering this new age of political activism and awareness.
Love!
Carla
P.S. A big hug from San Diego goes out to
SuperForester Niki. We all wish you a very happy birthday!!!
