Goal 5 says "Invite expertise..." We have also talked about the importance of actively influencing those beyond the boundaries of CEAP, at regional, national and global levels. Where does that show up in the goals? I think a change to that effect was suggested at the April 9 meeting.

I like the change in Goal 5 which now uses "connect with" instead of invite to acknowledge the importance of outreach as well as acquisition of expertise. Outreach has to be an important part of what CEAP does. Our ultimate goal, let us not forget, is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. We are ahead of most communities in organizing to act. As we do so, we should help other communities leverage what we have done. The impact our community could have through leadership might greatly outweigh our direct GHG reductions!
