businesses that are involved in public outreach and support programs. Please
take ten minutes to fill in a quick online survey on the number of people in <st1:place

reach through your activities.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:

conservation movement can be in a) raising awareness, b) securing an initial
commitment, and c) providing deeper advice and support.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>As I write
this, I see there are over 70 groups that have already replied and our combined
potential reach is over 40 million. You can add filters to the results to see
how the number breaks down into various categories such as internet outreach,
earned media, personal contact, and advisory programs. As expected, our
combined efforts can help raise the “buzz” around conservation issues
and create a more receptive audience for the personal contact programs and home
and business audits and conservation services.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
