> Fellow Earthling,
>  Wow! Have you heard about the 'UCSB Reads for Earth Day' project?
> It's awesome. The idea is to spark a community-wide conversation
> about the ecological state of the Earth by encouraging everyone at
> UCSB and in the greater Santa Barbara community to read and discuss
> the same book. The book that's been selected is Elizabeth Kolbert's
> Field Notes From a Catastrophe: Man, Nature, and Climate Change.
>  The kick-off event is scheduled for Jan 24 Wed, 4-5 pm on the 8th
> Floor of UCSB's Davidson Library. Beginning Jan 25 Thu at 8 am, more
> than 3,000 FREE COPIES of the book will be given out to UCSB students
> at the main entrance to Davidson Library.
>  UCSB Libraries News says "Leading up to Earth Day, April 22, 2007,
> a variety of lectures, panel discussions, and workshops related to
> the book and to global warming will be held throughout the community.
> Check out our UCSB Reads for Earth Day site for a complete schedule
> of events."
>  Let's help our Earth become even "cooler" than she already is.
>  Sincerely,
>  --Michael Bean
