Great thread!
“Or something else?”
Good question.
From the page on curriculum:
“Multi-craft core curriculumThe Multi-Craft Core Curriculum is an innovative training curriculum that provides a gateway from high school or community college to joint industry registered apprenticeships in the Building and Construction Trades Department (BCTD), AFL-CIO. This establishes, for the first time, standardized pre-apprenticeship for entry into any one of the building trades. The Emerald Cities Collaborative (ECC) is excited about the possibilities that this Core Curriculum provides marginalized communities, community-based workforce training programs, and other Emerald Cities partners. Already, ECC members have begun to work with the BCTD to explore delivery options to provide disadvantaged youth and entry-level workers access to this training. The BCTD has pledged to building these partnerships in cities and with organizations that commit to Emerald Cities.
The Core Curriculum combines the courses common to all building trades apprenticeship programs without regard to a particular craft. These courses are: general orientation to apprenticeship; cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and first aid; the OSHA 10 hour certification course; blueprint reading; applied mathematics for construction applications; history of the construction industry and the heritage of the American worker. The general orientation course includes construction industry structure and the construction process; orientation to apprenticeship itself; tools of the various trades and the safe handling of both hand and power tools; industry standards of work responsibility and craft excellence.
The Core Curriculum can be taught as a free-standing course or as part of a larger training program.”

Yes it is ... to read that tyrranical, overwhelmingly
intrusive govt control check list is beyond surreal.
It’s a nightmare.
“Low wage earners often lack voice and access to the formal venues and informal networks that generate public policies and economic strategies. Yet, low-income residents stand to benefit greatly from the long-term cost-savings and potential for small-business creation of conservation and efficiency efforts.
The most effective energy efficiency strategies require widespread cooperation. This requires people to communicate, identify common interests and goals and obstacles to reaching them, and to work together toward achieving them all activities that can help build democratic capacity.
Efforts to deeply organize our communities and align community and labor interests should not be confined to increasing energy efficiency in buildings.
These alignments will increase the public capacity to meaningfully influence our cities economic, social and political futures.”

Out and out collectivist socialism .. the goal IS redistribution of wealth and resources via multiple sequential tornadoes, overwhelming the citizenry ..keeping people off balance, disoriented and unable to organize viable protest.
And government jobs for the ‘controllers’ will be the high paying plums for their ACORN/union/agreeable cohorts.
Dear Lord, end this madness!
Thanks!

Title: Emerald Cities and the Global Warming $10 Trillion Enron style Carbon Credit scam.
AKA Crime, Inc., the Usual Suspect Organizations are involved in and underlie the Cap and Trade bill debate and bill upcoming in the US Congress, along with the provision in the financial reform measure to move the financial center of the US from New York City to Chicago. Please investigate the Emerald Cities organization, its board and staff members, the relationships to the Joyce Foundation, the organizations that have stood and stand to benefit from the $10,000,000,000,000 market, and get involved.
The fleecing of the United States is in play, including our children and grandchildrens futures, our rights and freedoms and our individual liberties guaranteed by the Constitution.
Contact your representatives, senators and friends. Please help us get the word out to stop the governmentally administered and operated crime wave. Because your money is a terrible thing to lose, let alone be looted.
I did! He’s dying to incite a riot.
Shove it, Liberals.
Just aching and itching ... then he can

Hmm....
And this is why the Abiotic theory of Fossil Fuel Creation is so dangerous and they can't have it gain steam.
Fossil Fuels then woud not rare hence less cost. They get a back door on controlling air via Fossil Fuels, Soon they will go after water. They have Health Care, Schooling and soon the Internet.
G_d help us...
That Joyce Foundation is a nasty piece of work. Another one based in Chicago. Obama was on it’s BoD and it’s anti-almost everything Constitutional. The damn news media never did any research into Obama. Just look at the simple stuff wiki has to say about the Joyce Foundation.
Everywhere you look, there’s a fire burning ..
and purposely set, and they want to shut off
more of our water every day.
Total control.
