The
workshop featured presentations by the Climate Action Reserve and the
American Carbon Registry (ACR) with details about carbon offset
standards and forest project requirements. Great River Energy discussed
the latest on carbon policy and the energy provider perspective. The
Aitkin County Land Department provided an update on the development of a
Northwoods carbon offset project. Event organized by Aitkin County
Land Department, The Forest Guild, Northeastern Area - US Forest
Service, and Dovetail Partners.
This is the trailer for "How to Boil a Frog", an eco-comedy that shows the consequences of overshoot: too many people using up too little planet. An everyman dad gives us the scoop on the imminent end of the world as we know it, and five surprising ways we can save civilization.

Dr. Shahzeen Attarti discusses her findings regarding public perceptions of energy consumption. She notes that, contrary to the findings of researchers, the public tends to view energy curtailment rather than efficiency as the better means of reducing energy consumption. Dr. Attari notes that the public tends to make small overestimates regarding energy expenditures associated with low-energy behaviors and large underestimates for those associated with large-energy behaviors. Dr. Attari mentions factors shown to correlate with accuracy of prediction. Presented at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium, May 2010.
