Wake The Sleeping Giant

 

Overview

  • In the US there are millions of properties and owners that could/should be installing a renewable energy system (solar or wind)
  • We will dub this group "The Sleeping Giant"

 

Objectives

  • If we can wake this sleeping giant there would be an economic and environmental impact like none other
  • If we can wake this sleeping giant the US could become truly energy independent
  • If we can wake this sleeping giant our children will have a much, much better place to live

 

Team

  • Mike
  • I could use a few hundred or thousand more Team Members to help. This is a very big giant and it has a hangover. He is very comfortable as is. He does not want to be disturbed.

 

Timeline

  • Kickoff: Sunday, September 20, 2009 
  • Completion Date: For me - When I die. For other members of the Team - Until they die.
  • Release: Sunday, September 20, 2009 
  • Celebration: Please include a few words when writing my epitaph

     

Tasks/Milestones

  • Pick a geographic area - Town, Village, City, County... to establish a benchmark
  • Find out how many solar or wind energy systems were installed last month and last year
  • Set a goal to double those numbers. Example: If 1 system was installed last month then next month we will want to show two systems have been installed
  • Get the word out that this Team was responsible for "doubling" the number of renewable energy systems installed in the XX area
  • Repeat the above process
  • Pull out a calculator. Enter a number say: 1. Multiply that number by two. Multiply the results by two. Do that a total of 12 times.

 

Conclusion

 

Anyone that does the math with realize the impact they have made. We will have woken the the Sleeping Giant.

 

This is all very real. Anyone here at barcamp wishing to help is welcome. Additional information is available at www.TheRenewableNetwork.com
