the fastest, most effective way to stop polluters is by pressuring them in the marketplace
women can be the world’s most powerful economic and environmental force if we intentionally shift our spending to the best green products and services
women have the power right now to solve many of our most serious environmental problems by using our green purses to make a difference
women must act – intentionally, collectively, and with the full force of our purse power behind us – if we hope to leave our children and grandchildren a better world.
The last few days have been a whirlwind. A week ago, I didn't even know the Huffington Post had a contest underway to send a Citizen Ambassador to the climate talks in Copenhagen. Then some very astute members of the Green Moms Carnival heard about the competition and asked me to enter. Since then, the enthusiasm for our campaign has been amazing. Sierra Club, BlogHer, TheDailyGreen, Recycle Bank, the Center for a New American Dream and many more have all signed on.
Now, there are just hours left to vote for me. Here's I need you to do three things:
* Vote here - http://tinyurl.com/Diane2Hopenhagen Then send the link to your friends, family members, neighbors, colleagues, and e-mail lists.
* Tweet, using #votehope and #dianemaceachern
* Put the link on your Facebook page and urge your friends to vote

Hi Diane,
We tried to endorse you, too, and thought we did, but evidently we didn't...! We did vote, though, and heard that many other Walk/Riders did, and are sorry you were not chosen. Sounds like a like-minded and appropriate person was selected, though.
Stay in touch!
