If not, please take a few minutes to complete any of the challenge surveys you didn't get to, (find the link to the May survey in the Yahoo group posting entitled "Last Cool Campaign Survey!!"on June 2) .

What Else Can You Do?
Stay alert. Keep learning, keep striving to add to your knowledge of ways to improve your lifestyle habits to benefit the planet. If some of the actions in this program hit a nerve, made you feel uncomfortable but you didn't adopt it, keep yourself open and see if you're ready to tackle it in a few months. Adopting every challenge in this program would be wonderful but is not expected! But do keep yourself at the ready for making more changes in the coming months.
Stay in touch. The email group for the Las Lomitas & La Entrada community will live on and continue to serve a valuable resource for environmental issues. We'd also love to hear from you about the Community Cool Campaign program and how it worked for you: Contact Ellen M. Wilkinson, ellenw@acterra.org orActerra, your local environmental organization responsible for bringing you this program.
Tell your friends and family. Share what you've learned, be a catalyst for change in the lives of those nearest and dearest to you. We wield more influence than you might think! Remember, it is whenmillions of us make changes, even small changes, to our energy use that we'll have a powerfulimpact!
Use your vote wisely. Pay attention to the environmental values of political candidates you are considering voting for. Don't hesitate to write a letter or make a phone call to make your feelings known. We have a democracy, we should use it well!
