Nine more Upstate New York Dairy Farms have lost their contract due to low demand for milk in and around the surrounding states. This is not only a local problem, but a statewide issue. With all the 'farm to table' fame sweeping the restaurant and food industries, saving our family farms should be top priority. These century-old family-run farms will have to sell off cattle and close their operation if a new market is not found quickly. The farmers already live month-to-month just waiting to find out what price they will get for their hard-labored milk production. We ask our representative to get involved and help out the local farm reps find a solution so we don't lose this vital link to our local dairy production.

If we must stop wasting water, the big companies should also!

As a Minnesota resident and a mother, I care about our state's many rivers, lakes and streams, especially as they supply our drinking water. Recent reports stating that the levels of nitrates in Minnesota drinking water are elevated have me concerned for the health of my child and us all. Requiring buffer zones around rivers, lakes and streams in agricultural areas is just common sense and good stewardship of our lands and waters.

All of us in California are affected by this issue. We citizens are being told we must drastically cut back our water usage. Why is the state allowing fracking companies to continue to use millions of gallons of water a day in California? We want them out!

We’re facing a clean water emergency in California. Regulators recently admitted that for years the oil industry has been illegally dumping millions of gallons of wastewater, including waste from fracking, into our state’s protected aquifers. Yet—in an outrageous move—the state is allowing the contamination to continue. Join thousands of other Californians who are telling Governor Brown to put an immediate stop to this illegal water pollution. The oil and gas industry has been injecting wastewater and other fluids into protected aquifers through about 2,500 injection wells, in direct violation of federal and state law. Yet despite acknowledging the threat to our water supplies, the state has shut down only 23 of the wells. And now, in order to avoid “inconvenience” to the industry, the state is giving drillers up to nearly two more years to contaminate aquifers that could be used for drinking water. Earthjustice is challenging this outrageous action in state court, but we need your help to put additional pressure on the governor. Tell Governor Brown to put the public first and protect our aquifers from further contamination now. In the midst of a massive drought, we should not be catering to the oil industry at the expense of our dwindling fresh water supplies.

Pennsylvania is my home state. Its natural beauty and resources have historically been abused for much too long. We must fight for what is left is for us to preserve, protect and revere. Please join me in my love for Pennsylvania's nature, and help to protect its integrity!

Despite the fracking industry's assurances that their processes are completely safe, fracking fluid is now showing up in drinking water in Bradford County, Pennsylvania. Fracking companies can only be trusted to protect their bottom line. The health of our citizens should ALWAYS take precedence over corporate profits. It's time our legislators acted accordingly.

We are a small island that depends too much on imported food when we have prime agricultural-land that can provide us fresh and locally-grown fruits and vegetables, affording our Island O'ahu to be self-sustainable! Also, we're against the obvious effects of traffic and pollution with this development because with 11,000 plus homes comes tens of thousands of more cars! "#CARmageddon" EVERYDAY!

Established in 2005, the Washington Renewable Energy Cost Recovery Program (CRP) provides an annual payment for electricity from qualifying wind and solar electric systems – as currently enacted – until June 2020. However, this 5 year window is not sufficient so it is critical that legislation be enacted this session to extend and improve the incentive program to continue building Washington's local renewable energy infrastructure. Distributed wind, solar and other local renewable energy technologies are important emerging sources of distributed generation, jobs, and wealth for Washingtonians. Please contact your legislators and ask them to strengthen and extend the CRP! Note: If appropriate, please include your company name in the petition sign-on's comment field.

What our whales already face is staggering, record numbers of crab pot entanglements, seismic and sonar testing, ship strikes and more. Issuing permits to drown them as well must no longer be tolerated. Tell NMFS to live up to their initials: No More Funny Stuff! Joey Racano, Director Ocean Outfall Group www.oceanoutfallgroup.com

To give Greenpeace and other "tree-huggers" my complete support and thanking them for fighting to expose the truth and save the planet from destruction.

Hemp needs to be legalized. We need to put greed aside and do whats the most sustainable for our children. These poor kids have no future with the resources we're using now; we need to put mass production in all renewable resources NOW. There's no future without action now
