Guest: Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer Guest: Mark Morano Prepared!Thank You for joining us at the Nations First
"Green Tea Party"!
We had an amazing event, those of you that participated thank you so much for toughing it out in the cold and rain.
Members of the Green Tea Party staff - you are wonderful and it was a delight to work with you!
A special thank you to the National Tax Payers Union for helping to make this event possible.
I had made several trips to D.C. during this event planning and I was lucky enough to enjoy beautiful blue skies and comfortable warm air. Unfortunately on September 26th we received rain and 50 degree temps. It must be that pesky Global Warming again...
Our guest speakers were right on target. As promised they spoke of what effects the Cap & Trade bill will have on our struggling economy and about the many inaccuracy's regarding man-made Global Warming.
I would like to extend a special thanks to all of our guest speakers: You were there for all the right reasons and with clarity you explained what information is being withheld from the public about so called man-made Global Warming.
It is a dangerous path we are being taken on - the green agenda is riddled with inaccuracies and exaggerations. We need those that are committed to the truth about green to step up to the podium and educate us. Policy is being shaped because of overzealous environmentalists and are very possibly more about profit and less about fact.
*Video was taken at this event and I was hoping to have a link to it however due to technical problems the video is currently unavailable.
Please stay tuned for future events and news.
This is only the beginning for Truth About Green, Inc.

“Truth About Green” to Hold Nation's
First Green Tea Party
St. Mary's County, MD, September 18, 2009—On the heels of the historic 9/12 Tea Party in Washington, DC, Truth About Green, a Maryland-based non-profit organization, will hold the nation's first Green Tea Party on Saturday, September 26 from 1 to 4 pm in Washington, DC's Lafayette Park. The national event will feature guest speakers on proposed global warming legislation before the U.S. Congress and other environmental issues, as well as entertainment by country music artist John Luskey.
Truth About Green was founded in 2009 by Maryland residents Nancy Sabater and Mary Burke-Russell. “We didn't feel enough was being done to educate everyday, ordinary Americans about the other side of the global warming debate,” said Sabater. “The biggest issue next to health care is ‘cap-and-tax,’ but hardly anyone knows what it is or just what it will mean for the average person. Before we impose all these costly regulations, it's important to have all the facts – and to have more common sense about what we're doing.”
Featured speakers at the nation's first Green Tea Party include:
- Howard Brandston, Lighting Consultant and Designer.
- Paul Chesser and James Taylor, The Heartland Institute.
- Dr. Wayne Brough
- Pete Sepp, National Tax Payers Union
- Lindsay Janeway, aka CrabbyCon on Twitter.
- Ann McElhinney and Phelim McAleer, international documentarians and producers of the soon-to-be-released “Not Evil, Just Wrong,” a rebuttal film aimed at uncovering the falsehoods presented in Al Gore's documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth.”
- Steve Milloy, author of Green Hell: How Environmentalists Plan to Control Your Life and What You Can Do to Stop Them, and founder and publisher of www.junkscience.com, a website devoted to defending the truth of science.
- Marc Morano, editor of Climate Depot.
- Phil Parenti, Americans for Prosperity, Southern Maryland Chapter.
- Julie Walsh, Freedom Action.
- Charles Lollar, founder of New Day Maryland, will serve as emcee.
“We want to create venues where we can have a good time and talk about important issues. All Americans need to be better informed about the potentially life-changing decisions our politicians could make,” said Sabater.
