The Environmental and Energy Study Institute would like to invite you to a briefing sponsored by The Center for Small Business and the Environment (CSBE) and the National Small Business Association (NSBA) on "silver buckshot" initiatives for combating global warming. 

"Silver buckshot" initiatives produce incremental solutions, aggregate many small gains, and secure immediate greenhouse gas emission reductions. Small business - the decentralized half of the American economy - offers countless opportunities for "silver buckshot" initiatives.  Several are already underway and will be discussed at the briefing.
