Blair sent this to me.  This looks rather interesting...you're helping large organizations decrease their greenhouse gas emissions.

Dear Friends,

Thank you, Anne Stephenson.
 
 
*Climate Fellowship Program*

Clean Air–Cool Planet (CA-CP) has successfully worked with communities, 
campuses, and corporations to achieve millions of tons of greenhouse gas 
reductions. Small investments made in getting initial, catalytic 
projects off the ground often lead to greater institutional commitment 
and long-term success in comprehensive climate leadership efforts. Yet 
it can often be difficult to allocate the resources necessary to get 
those projects completed.

In light of that reality, and with the generous support of the *Roy A. 
Hunt Foundation <http://www.rahuntfdn.org/index.shtml>*, CA-CP has 
created its /Climate Fellowship/, a competitive, prestigious program 
designed to pair outstanding students with challenging real-world 
opportunities to propel society toward a low-carbon future.
