Many thanks to petition signers

I have been collecting signatures on a petition to put Initiative 732 on the ballot in 2016.

I 732 proposes a tax on carbon in order to discourage the use of carbon based fuels and encourage the use of alternate sources of energy such as wind power and solar power.

I would like to thank all the concerned people who signed the petition. I also appreciated the chance to talk to the people who didn't sign the petition and hear what their views were. Collecting these signatures was a very interesting experience.
