New Orleans a test case for global warming?~Tom Darden
~Tom Darden is executive director of the Make It Right Foundation, the organization founded by actor Brad Pitt to build 150 affordable, green, high-design homes in New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward, a neighborhood devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
Two years ago this month, the Make It Right Foundation was launched to help the families of New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward rebuild their lives and community. That was already two years after Katrina, and the once-vibrant neighborhood was still in ruins, failed by government and frustrated by a lack of progress.
Working with the Lower 9th Ward community, with families who lost everything in Katrina, with cutting-edge architects and inventive builders, we learned some truths and made some discoveries we would like to share with the climate change negotiators in Copenhagen.
~Editilla Crow'tellas~ We are hoping someone can get on the horn to Brad and have this stupid clueless man fired from Make It Right, for Miss-Framing the flood of New Orleans 8/29/05 and thus dragging that fine endeavor of building flood- safe housing into the muck of Global Warming Politics.
Here is their phone number. 1 (888)-647-6652
Please call them right now and ask if Make It Right is now a Political Advocacy Group.
