On December 7th, dozens of Essex Country residents gathered at the Bloomfield Civic Center, giving up their Friday evening to hear three fine speakers on the environment. The theme of the event was "Global Warming - The Science, with Latest Government Responses". The event was sponsored by the Essex Country Greens and No War - No Warming/NJ. We would like to thank Jane Califf for chairing and organizing this event.
