"Lobby days" are a Washington staple. But the one held Monday was unique both for its size and who participated.

More than 12,000 high school- and college-age students attended Power Shift '09, a four-day conference organized by the Energy Action Coalition (EAC), a consortium of environmentalist and progressive student groups, held at the D.C. Convention Center over the weekend.
