			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Normally, house parties bring to mind shattered glass, stained sofas and unidentified stomach contents regurgitated into houseplants. The mess, destruction and waste combine to create the opposite of environmentalism.  This isn&#8217;t one of those parties.</p>
<p>Today people all across the country will be holding house parties to end global warming. And as President Obama tries to push new <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5jPyQzxzB4azYBheGyFOHcI61XjAA" target="_blank">global warming legislation</a> forward&#8211;while being met with <a href="http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2009-06/01/content_11468130.htm" target="_blank">criticism</a>&#8211;the time has never been more ripe for action. <span id="more-72"></span></p>
<p>Indeed, it is our <a href="http://usliberals.about.com/od/environmentalconcerns/p/KyotoProtocol.htm" target="_blank">past inaction</a> that remains so devastating. While the rest of the world stood in solidarity against global warming and took action to create a safer planet, the U.S. stood idle. Now, with an administration that embraces science and a healthy environment, perhaps we can join in the global movement.</p>
<p>And while watching EPA hearings may not sound like a glitzy, glamorous shindig to attend, it could end up being one of the most important parties you&#8217;ve ever attended.</p>
<p>Following the 15-minute hearing video, partygoers will have a chance to participate in a live conference call with &#8220;Big Picture&#8221; leaders&#8211;<a href="http://action.sierraclub.org/site/GetTogether?gettogether=activity_splash&amp;cal_activity_id=1180&amp;autologin=true&amp;s_subsrc=body1" target="_blank">Sierra Club</a> members who are leading this campaign. After the call, during which leaders will answer questions, people will discuss possible solutions and jot their ideas down to send in for a clean energy plan for the people, by the people.</p>
<p>This campaign is about the &#8220;<a href="http://www.allamericanpatriots.com/48752165-sierra-club-hails-obama-plan-for-clean-cars" target="_blank">big picture</a>,&#8221; say the leaders, because President Obama &#8220;sees the big picture&#8221; when it comes to the environment.</p>
<p>If you would like to be a part of this &#8220;<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bruce-nilles/epa-hearings-and-house-pa_b_203612.html" target="_blank">big picture solution</a>,&#8221; <a href="http://action.sierraclub.org/site/GetTogether?gettogether=activity_splash&amp;cal_activity_id=1180&amp;autologin=true&amp;s_subsrc=body1" target="_blank">click here</a> to find a house party near you. You can also send your own comments directly to the EPA through <a href="https://secure2.convio.net/sierra/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&amp;page=UserAction&amp;id=2081" target="_blank">this form</a>.</p>
