Now, the city says it's your turn.

The capital is creating e2 Citizen, a program in which residents will be asked to do their part to improve the environment.

"It's more than just a program for your typical tree-hugger," said Lisa Romney, Mayor Rocky Anderson's environmental adviser. "It's a program for everyone who cares about the future, their children, their own health, the economy of the city they live in . . . It's about sustainability."

First, the city wants people to know their eco-footprint (see http://www. climatecrisis.net) - how many pounds of carbon dioxide they use per year based on car use, air travel and home energy bills.

Participants, - e2 Citizens - will be asked to set five goals, from getting rid of their vehicles, to using cold water for laundry, to installing low-flow showerheads.

The first 250 who sign up will get a starter kit, which will include a compact fluorescent light bulb (requiring less energy and lasting longer than incandescent bulbs), two UTA tokens, a flashing bike light and bike map (no more excuses for driving) and a recycled pen.

There will be a newsletter and social events for members, including the first on April 25, which will launch e2 Citizen. The launch starts at 5:30 p.m., before a free screening of "Global Warming: The Signs and The Science," in the Urban Room of the Main Library.
