For those people located in Maryland, I thought I'd share this info that I 
just got from The Chesapeake Climate Action Network 
(http://www.chesapeakeclimate.org/).

They wrote:
============
The "Global Warming Solutions Act" bill suddenly has a chance to pass now 
in Maryland thanks to skyrocketing concerns about the collapsing global 
climate. The bill would make our state just the second in America - behind 
California - to mandate huge, statutory reductions in greenhouse gases by 
2020 using a “cap and trade” system for carbon dioxide. We need at 
least 100 committed citizens from across the state to join an emergency 
grassroots campaign over the next six weeks to push the bill through.

Please Dial in to a Grassroots Conference Call this week. For your 
convenience, there will be two calls to pick from:

Call #1: Thursday night Feb. 22, 7:30 pm. Call-in number: 1-888-537-8139, 
code 82531915
Call #2: Saturday Feb. 24, noon. Call in number: 1-888-537-8139, code 
82531915

Here's what will happen on the call: Senator Pinsky, Delegate Barve, and 
Mike Tidwell will open by explaining the bill's historic significance and 
outlining the political strategy for getting it through both the MD Senate 
and House and on to the governor. Josh Tulkin and Claire Douglass of the 
CCAN staff will then explain the proposed emergency grassroots campaign and 
answer any questions you may have. We hope to keep the call to one hour, 
with follow up by email.
