Fracking is coming to our neighborhoods and there are no adequate protections or ordinances. Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Placitas, Cuba, Bernalillo, Indian Land and the surrounding areas be affected! We need to demand that our Water, Air and Soil are protected!

Climate change protection is a very important issue for me. Like many others, I will vote for politicians who care about this very important issue.

My wife and I raised our children to be caretakers of the Earth, and not destroyers of it. The science of our impact is clear, and we must address it so that our children's children will have a healthy environment in which to raise their children.

There are many people in Utah affected by poor air quality during the winter inversion and that firsthand experience should dictate how we act locally and globally with regard to climate change and the quality of our environment.

All of us need to be together to fight climate change so our kids and grandkids can enjoy our planet.

New Jersey should join California, Washington, and New York in the Climate Alliance and commit to the Paris Agreement. New Jersey is already heavily impacted by Climate change, with rising temperatures, lower air quality, and beach erosion and damage from strong storms and hurricanes. Our state should be at the forefront, continuing to lead the country in promoting clean energy, environmental protection practices and investing in new jobs​. Let's demand a sustainable future for us and our children. Source: http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/california-york-washington-unite-back-climate-pact-47778881

Last week, Donald Trump recklessly announced that he will pull the United States out of the Paris Climate Agreement, which has been signed by 195 countries in an effort to stop catastrophic climate change, which is accelerated by carbon pollution. In response, governors from California, New York, and Washington launched a coalition committed to the carbon reduction efforts called for under the Paris Agreement, which has now been joined by a total of 12 states and Puerto Rico. Urge Gov. Otter to enlist Idaho in this new coalition and do everything possible to fight climate change.

Since facts matter we should get them straight. First, the world's climate has been altered by humans and 97% of scientific studies back that up. Second, coal is more expensive than solar (which is the cheapest energy source on the planet) and wind power, and it will die on its own even without solar and wind. Third, more people are employed in clean energy than the coal industry by a wide margin. Fourth, since clean energy is becoming more and more accessible and inexpensive, we don't need to depend so much on fossil fuels for our energy. Another fact that gets buried in all the "fake news" reporting about climate is that there is only limited amount of fossil fuels and even if we could dig them all up, someday we will run out. Do not follow Mr. Trump into this abyss of thoughtlessness and instead listening to the facts. I am concerned for our planet's and our children's future. There are more extreme weather events throughout the world and that is due to the increase in the earth's temperature. The desert areas of the world are expanding and soon the people living in those areas will move where the water is putting more and more of a strain on the water supplies in those areas. I could go on and on but I think this gets the point across.

I'm a registered Republican, and father of a toddler. I am living the American Dream, but I know my children and grandchildren will not live the same dream if we don't all stand up and demand real leadership as it pertains to climate change. This is a bi-partisan issue! The future generations are counting on us!

Traveling through Wyoming, we can see the damage done when our extraction industries are not pursuing strong environmental practices as a part of their business model. We can do better, for Wyoming and the world.

Saving the Atlantic Coast from oil drilling!

We want our local community to create a safe sustainable lawns and areas for small children. We want to eliminate the risk of disease from these chemicals!
