President Hansen Commits Bates to Carbon Neutrality!


So there is a slight change of plans in our letter to President Hansen, as I alluded to yesterday, and this is because it was going to ask her to sign the American College and University President's Climate Commitment....but she has just signed it!!! And not only has she signed it, she is in the leadership circle! This means that she is commited to working towards climate neutrality beyond Bates, and going to her collegues at other schools and urging them to sign on. So this is really really great news. You can see the commitment, and list of signatories, at https://webmail.bates.edu/portal/services/go.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.presidentsclimatecommitment.org%2Fhtml%2Fcommitment.php.

She is on board! That means that together we can really make Bates a leader in the Climate movement! Let's get ready for the Maine Climate Summit next year and get her so sign to ask Maine and US government to Step It Up!

Kudos to E.T.H.!

Hey there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect

against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've
worked hard on. Any recommendations?

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any
issues of plagorism

or copyright violation? My site has a lot of unique content

I've either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up

all over the internet without my authorization. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being ripped off? I'd really
appreciate it.

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you're using?

I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a hard time

selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is

because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something
completely

unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

I do accept as true with all of the concepts you have


introduced in your post. They are really convincing and can certainly work.
Nonetheless, the posts are very short for newbies.

May just you please extend them a bit from

subsequent time? Thanks for the post.

Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this blog. It's simple, yet effective.

A

lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between superb

usability and appearance. I must say that you've done a
excellent job with this. In addition,

the blog loads very fast for me on Internet explorer.

Excellent Blog!

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell
and gave it to my 4 year

old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She
placed the shell to her ear and

screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is

totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
