Clean-energy protesters should meet in summer
The definition of irony: more than 2,000 clean-energy activists converge on a Washington coal-fired power plant March 2 to protest global warming amidst the city’s worst snowstorm of the year.
Of course, that didn’t matter, according to Glenn Hurowitz, spokesman for Green Peace.
“The fact that so many people are willing to come out and keep winter cold shows how much passion and dedication people have on this issue,” Hurowitz said.
Granted, climate and weather are not the same. However, from a PR standpoint, these activists should consider scheduling their protests during July and August. Hopefully, those who booked hotel rooms had heat and warm water.
