ACF Suggested actions for change

FYI and ACF Action Suggestions

I thought I would include a little something from usual flood of email which could be relevant and useful to many people with a sustainability and environmental bent(and interest in climate change and needed lifestyle changes that will be required now and in the future to improve and make more sustainable our lifestyles on this fragile planet).Enough of the lectures though.Some good initiatives and information to be had.
