Friends @ekaminski.bsky.social and Bob James have excellent letters to the editor in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution today! Our dependence on oil is a hindrance and we can charge a carbon pollution tax on countries who rely heavily on fossil fuels for manufacturing products for sale in the US

I love our City Springs events! Tonight kicked off the Blue Stone Arts & Music Festival. Beautiful art, rides for the kids, & live music 🎶 These events are a reminder of Helen Keller's quote (as seen on one of our Sandy Springs Turtles), "Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much." ❤️
