Great idea to involve mothers, but proposal could be sharpened by a more specific focus (choosing among water contamination, population control, etc.). An additional concern is how the team would scale up; is each mother required to generate a cohesive and compelling message?

Thanks for your feedback. The entire focus of the group is environmental education and letting people know what they can do to make a difference. The prmimary goal is to reduce each person's carbon footrint. I see a central website of information that all involved can refer to and would certaily welcome any who want to join and work at making a difference in their own local community. In that sense, there would be local chapters where those who want to become more involved can share and personalize the message to those in their local area. People are not in any way required to generate a message, they could simply be there to learn what they can do and via internet could share that with others if they wish. If they want to become more involved then they could certainly volunteer to bring the message to their local community, that would be great, but it is their choice. Taking a stand and a more pro-active approach is the position some may take once they know the reality of the situation, for others, they may simply be happy to make the changes in their own home that will be supportive of a sustainable future. Thanks again for your comment:)
