LA Post Carbon at the Doo Dah Parade
Sunday, November 21st, 11:30 AM
LA Post Carbon will be entering the Doo Dah Parade with an entry called Got Oil? The actors will include the out-of-gassers pushing their car carrying empty gas cans, the Earth being followed by a doctor(s) with a thermometer and stretcher, a Soldier fighting for oil, Uncle Sam who is "Addicted to Oil" and a TV set looking for a place to plug in.
Visit LA.PostCarbon.org after the parade to see the photos!
To counter all this oil addiction, there will be a 12-Step Program for oil addicts. These steps are not meant to be all inclusive, but to give people a starting point and incremental steps to end their addiction to oil.
12-Step Program for Oil-Addicts
Be aware of the oil you consume when you travel, shop, work and eat
Understand that you need only make incremental changes
Educate yourself about energy and sustainability
Reduce number of car trips
Increace walking or biking trips
Become active in your local community
Begin a garden
Create Car or Van Pools
Do away with non-essentials that don't contribute to our health or well being
Form an organic food-buying co-op
Retrofit homes for energy and water efficiency
Know that these steps are a small but important beginning
