Please join us on Monday October 15th at Lenny’s in California at 7:00pm for our monthly club meeting. The Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN) is the first grassroots, nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to fighting global warming in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Their mission is to educate and mobilize citizens of this region in a way that fosters a rapid societal switch to clean energy and energy-efficient products, thus joining similar efforts worldwide to slow and perhaps halt the dangerous trend of global warming.
Our guest, Holly Gorman, is a Maryland native who split her childhood years between Ellicott City and Germany. She attended St Mary's College in Southern Maryland, graduating in 2007 with a degree in English and Religious Studies. While there, she demonstrated her commitment to the environmental movement by working with other students and staff members to clean up beaches, encourage recycling on campus, highlight the bonuses of eating local and organic foods, and fighting global warming. She is outrageously excited to work as the Maryland Organizer for CCAN, because it means that she can work on saving the world full-time, without having to worry about silly things like classes distracting her.
