Pedaling for Clean Energy. By J. C. Kemmick, ItsGettingHotHere, December 12, 2008. "The Trek to Re-Energize America is committed to forging a new clean energy economy, helping communities with local struggles and creating millions of new green jobs. And to top it all off, we'll be gathering thousands of stories from people across the country as we cycle through their towns and cities to prove to our elected officials that our country is ready to show that the environment and the economy go hand in hand... The Trek is organizing for this summer's ride. We now have 13 committed organizers from Texas and California to New Hampshire and Vermont, recruiting and fundraising to make the ride a great success. We'll be working closely with 1Sky and Appalachian Voices to interact with local organizers on the projects they need help with and to tie others into the climate movement. We're now also working with the wonderful folks at Summer of Solution, a fantastic youth led action project engaging youth in community solutiuons to the climate crisis across the country."
