Posted on Jan 24, 2007 It sounds like a daunting task: to tackle global warming as "the issue of this generation." CSUMB, along with college students all over the country, say they're up to it. On Jan. 31, CSUMB and some 1,450 schools, churches and civic groups will hold a teach-in on global warming, called Focus The Nation, intended to encourage policy makers to invest in clean energy. Locally, CSUMB anticipates 300 students throughout the day for its 10-speaker program. Salinas Mayor Dennis Donohue and Santa Cruz County Treasurer Fred Keeley, a former Central Coast assemblyman, will both give talks.
