A good sign: After Illinois congressional candidates debate, Greenpeace organizer doesn't seem happy

8th Dist. candidates square off :: News :: PIONEER PRESS :: Schaumburg Review

Greenpeace field organizer Nicole Granacki from Woodstock attended to hear views on energy alternatives. She was unimpressed. "I'd like to see their plans to stop global warming. People have been talking enough about a plan for the climate crises, but they want to see a plan. The candidates aren't telling us about their differences for a plan," she said.

Instead, Granacki wanted specific ideas for capping atmospheric emissions,investing in alternative energies and creating more energy awareness for the public. "These are areas (that) elected officials, we think, should address, not the failed policies of oil drilling and nuclear power," she said.
