I wish that we had brought a camera or video yesterday to Magnolia School for
our TAEVA presentation. Andre Smith brought his way-cool converted Dodge
Caravan and we brought our PHEV Prius. The kids (age 5 to about 14 years) were
so fun and bright. The questions that they asked were amazingly smart. These
will be the kids who will hone the electrical transportation systems of the
future.
This was our first of the really young kids' groups, and I must say that the
experience was a powerfully optimistic one for me. We can trust the
environmental challenges to these young people!
If you are considering addressing a young group and want a very short cartoon
video to use, you can google Plug in Partners, "Bettah". It is a simple and
good video for the very young.
I will seek out some more of these groups to address. If one ever feels less
hopeful about the future of environmental efforts these kids can really help to
enfuse a presenter with hope bigtime. Thanks, kids of Magnolia School! We are
betting on you.
