Hey guys,
so I really don't know what our next steps are in terms of this ISG.
We have a 17 minute slot this thursday to present with Uppsala. Have
we heard from them yet? We need to meet to figure this out asap, like
tomorrow. I'm free 12-1, or in the evening after 7pm. Let's talk to
Jim after class too

I have something that I need to do until 8, but Mann is a good 20 minutes away from me.  Can we pick something closer?

What about 8 at the Tower Lounge in Uris?  I may be a little late.

Hi, Uppsala here!

We decided what we will do for our eight minutes. We will be four
elders from the community with four different standpoints.
1. For the gas company coming into the society because it will
decrease unemployment.
2. Want's to sue the oilcompany for causing climate change.
3.Does not want the oil company since it will destroy the environment
and thereby destroying all their chances to keep theor traditional
society.
4. Does not want the oil company since peak oil is already happening
and having an economy based on oil is not econmically sustainable.

Hope this doesn't collide with your plans, if it does we'll just make
the best out of it.

/Josefin, Josh, Kristoffer, Nicole, Jemma and Ma

Hey Uppsala!

It seems as if you guys are taking the role of the community member
stakeholders, focusing on the cons and costs with a small portion of
the benefits. To contrast, we will take the standpoint of economists
from the oil company focusing on the pros and benefits with one
economic representative from an environmental organization to bring in
some cons. We will email you in about 14 hours with the specific
roles.

We really like your creativity when handling this ISG and think it's a
great way to compare and contrast the pros/cons in a more interesting
way than just a powerpoint with facts.

Let us know if you have any other ideas/suggestions!

-Laura, Alba, Lucia, Mak, Catherine, Jay, Elizabeth & Amy
