Taking a stand to save energy, to cut CO2 emissions and to promote the production of geothermal energy, bioenergy (biofuels and biogas) and wind energy through strengthening local economies (http://www.feasta.org/), taxation and cooperation, and by other means, and not bowing to the idea of exclusively centralized electricity and energy production.
