Group to debut Election Navigator
Tuesday, October 14, 2014 by Mark Richardson
The Austin EcoNetwork will introduce its Election Navigator today. Out just in time for voters to study before early voting starts Oct. 20, the Election Navigator is a research tool available to the public. EcoNetwork officials said that producing the site took months of surveying public priorities, researching data, building tables and analyzing candidates’ answers to environmental questionnaires. It covers topics such as water, energy, transportation, food and forest, zero waste, climate change and general leadership issues. More information and a video and preview screen shots can be found on the Indiogogo campaign. EcoNetwork will unveil the Election Navigator at 10:30 a.m. at the Sustainable Food Center Demo Kitchen, 2921 E 17th St.
