Important Announcements

CURRENT INFORMATION: go to our Facebook group "Waco Friends of the Climate." 1) Beginning Jan. 2025, our focus has been on resistance to Donald Trump, since his policies are our greatest threat to the climate. Thus, we are not having monthly meetings at this time. We hope to hold monthly meetings in the future. Visit our Facebook group for current activities, Waco Friends of the Climate. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1330231820335851 2) Our role in the resistance includes a weekly protest at the pedestrian bridge in Waco, Valley Mills Dr. & Bagby Avenue, each Sunday, 1:00pm-2:30pm. We began the protest in March 2025 and it has been carried on weekly for over one year. We provide huge, highly visible banners. Please join us. RESISTING FASCISM, ONE SUNDAY AT A TIME. 3) Because of the sad passing of our webmaster, Harrison Ward, we have not been able to keep the website up to date.

More On The FOP/C Presentation To The Sustainable Resource Practices Advisory Board Meeting


FANTASTIC NEWS: Our 100% Renewable Energy Resolution for Waco
is now on the agenda of the Sustainable Resource Practices Advisory Board Meeting:
  • Wednesday, December 5, 2018, 3:45pm. (Board convenes at 4:00pm).
  • Waco City Hall, 300 Austin Avenue, 3rd floor meeting room.  76701
  • Please be very quiet while waiting to enter, whisper only, if a meeting is taking place before ours.  
  • Clothing:  please wear your new green FOP/C t-shirt, or other light green shirt.  We expect about 54 degree F, so jacket may be advised before entering the meeting.  
  • Schedule:  we expect brief comments from Sarah Brockhaus (my collaborator) and myself before any action is taken on the resolution.  
  • We are not certain if other audience comments will be allowed at that time.  If so:  please keep your comment concise and focused squarely on our goal of approval of the 100% renewable energy pledge for Waco.  Primary actions will include conservation, renewable source for electricity, transition of city vehicles to EVs. The importance of this commitment to renewable energy for you and your family would be powerful--personal experience.
  • Reminder:  we want to express the best possible decorum, so please be silent when anyone else is talking. 
  • We do expect a vote or other action on the Resolution. 
  • As in August, the Waco FOP/C will provide dinner (with appropriate vegetarian/vegan options) after the meeting, and hopefully this will be a victory dinner.  
  • Questions:  anorthc@aol.com
  • Need a ride to the City Hall:  anorthc@aol.com 
  • Finally, PLEASE INVITE EVERYONE IN YOUR CONTACTS TO ATTEND: We have the science behind us, but we wish to again emphasize public support in Waco.
