Immediately stop the aerosol spraying of our nation's skies.Issues: Climate Change, Environment, Human Rights, and the effects on the health of all living things. Aluminum is toxic, yet there is an increasing amount of aluminum being found in ground water, soils and even freshly fallen rain and snow world wide. The spraying of Chemical trails are witnessed being sprayed world wide. These Chemical trails are seen being sprayed via white unmarked aircraft at very high altitude at often steep trajectories leaving an aerosol trail that does not dissipate, and spreads out across the sky throughout the course of the day. The spraying of undisclosed substances by these planes coincides with the rise in aluminum amongst various other toxic substances being found to contaminate the soils, ground water, rain, and snow. We need to stop this secret program to ensure the safety of the American public, global community, and all living things on this planet.246 of 300 SignaturesCreated by dianna cook

Label GMOs in Maine now!Even though Maine passed a mandatory GMO labeling law in 2013, Maine citizens, myself included, still don't have the right to know if our food has been genetically engineered--thanks to a trigger clause in the original law. That's about to change, if we convince Maine lawmakers to support a bipartisan bill introduced this year.2,170 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Katherine Paul

Remove Dr Wolk as Head of Colorado Department of HealthDr Wolk recently stated: "I get a little bit concerned and annoyed when people try to use health as the basis of what they don't like about oil and gas." As a retired Registered Nurse and Member of Coloradans Against Fracking, I find it more than annoying that Wolk ignores and dismisses current research on the health effects of fracking pollution and is willing to allow the citizens of Colorado to remain subject to potential toxic exposure while health studies are conducted without the informed consent of participants.126 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Karen Dike

Halt Proposed Offshore Atlantic Oil and Gas DrillingBefore the public comment period ends on March 30th, 2015, please go to http://www.regulations.gov/#!submitComment;D=BOEM-2014-0096-0001 and express your concerns with the proposed offshore Atlantic oil and gas drilling, plus seismic testing. This could be catastrophic for important commercial and recreational fishing and for coastal communities that rely heavily on tourism. Clean, renewable, wind energy should be explored in these areas, not oil. We do not need a BP oil disaster off our coastline!101 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Tina Downs

Stop the Lake Powell-St. George PipelineWashington and Kane County current residents and future generations will be responsible for paying for the multi-billion dollar pipeline; the legislature is not willing to fund the project. There is no apparent real need for the pipeline. "Washington County continues to be the West's most wasteful water user and can do far more to conserve and live sustainably in the desert.

Ban the Use of Herbicides Along Public Roads.This is just a short list of some of the reasons why Nevada county should take a step to better our community, like other CA counties have done: steep areas along the road are constantly eroding due lack of vegetation and root systems; mud washes into the roads and clogs drains, creating flooding in the road; mud and herbicides wash into our waterways polluting streams and rivers, hurting our fish population; areas are being sprayed that are mowed by locals, which is a waste of tax dollars and an unnecessary eye-sore; herbicides have known cancer-causing ingredients that can be inhaled by pregnant women and children passing by, and have been known to leach into well water.416 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Christopher Dobbins

Stop a Dangerous Chemical LawRecently the chemical industry got exactly what it wanted—again. A new Senate bill was introduced that would not only fail to protect us from dangerous chemicals but also restrain state governments from taking action. Together, we can fight back against business as usual. We must reject the chemical industry’s reprehensible approach and strengthen protections against toxic chemicals. Chemical companies have spent millions lobbying for a free pass to continue putting Americans at risk from chemicals like flame retardants, formaldehyde in flooring, asbestos in dozens of products, and thousands of other chemicals that contaminate our air, water, food, and everyday products. We need you to voice your opposition now to a proposed chemical policy bill introduced by Senators David Vitter and Tom Udall that would leave dangerous holes in our toxic chemical laws.555 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Andrea Delgado, Earthjustice

STOP THE VERIZON TOWER IN ERWIN LAKEA lease agreement is proposed between Verizon Wireless and Big Bear City Community Services District, (BBCCSD), to erect the tower on public land adjacent to our residential neighborhood. We believe the installation of the cell tower is inconsistent with the rural character of the surrounding neighborhood. Cell phone towers expose the public to involuntary, chronic, cumulative Radio Frequency Radiation (RFR). These towers emit radio frequencies (RF), a form of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), for a distance of up to 2 ½ miles. Studies have shown that even at low levels of this radiation, there is evidence of damage to cell tissue and DNA, and it has been linked to brain tumors, cancer, suppressed immune function, depression, miscarriage, Alzheimer’s disease, and numerous other serious illnesses. At increased risk are children, pregnant women and the elderly. Wildlife, pets and livestock are also at risk from RF and EMF radiation.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Goldman
