Uppity Wisconsin

Wednesday, February 21st is Conservation Lobby Day 2007 - - the date on which conservationists will gather to button-hole legislators at the State Capitol and talk to them about pressing Wisconsin environmental issues.

Power plant siting. Ground and surface water protections. Wildlife habitat and wetlands preservation. And more.

On all the other days, big-shot lobbyists with bigger-dollar clients will have their routine policy and legislative way with representatives and senators, but Wednesday is when you can organize with like-minded Wisconsinites make a direct impact.

The Wisconsin League of Conservation Voters is one of the groups that is helping organize this event: check out the details here and get involved.
