In communities across America, Represent.Us members are working together— conservatives, progressives and everyone in between — to pass local Anti-Corruption Acts. Together, member-led Represent.Us chapters are leading the fight to protect our communities from the corruption that plagues Congress. Every town, city, state and county has a unique political makeup, so every Anti-Corruption Act is uniquely tailored to the needs of each community.  Cilla Raughley, an Organizer for the San Francisco Peninsula Chapter of Represent.Us, will present.

Most of the information we hear about global warming from both sides just isn’t true. Longtime Humanist Community member Marc Perkel explores the claims made by both global warming deniers and alarmists and the influence of money on both sides of the question. It turns out that global warming is a problem, but it’s not as dire as some would have you think it is. And the good news is – we have time to fix it before it gets worse.

Camp Quest is a national organization whose local affiliates provide week-long summer camp programs to children in secular families. With over a dozen locations throughout the United States, including two in California, they are the only national organization that is focused on the children of the secular movement.  David Diskin, president of Camp Quest West (California), will present an overview of Camp Quest West and their week-long program that combines traditional outdoor All-American fun with interactive science activities that help kids become familiar with skepticism, the scientific method, and Humanist philosophies.  (See www.CampQuestWest.org)
