Jerry Brown: Protect our ArcticGreen peace is launching awareness for the exploitation of the Arctic. Up until now we have managed to keep multinational oil corporations out of this area, but now it is our job to make sure they are permanently protected. The Arctic is an amazing place, home to whales, polar bears, and other amazing creatures. We need to act now to protect it for future generations!2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Abby Goeser

Save the Arctic!Many companies think it's okay to attack our world's nature preserves, and we all have to work together to show them that it's not! Many animals are dying or becoming extinct because of the horror that's happening in the Arctic. If you look at what some gas companies are doing, you'll see it's all because of money and resources. They're willing to kill life to get what they need to make their company more successful. But what's more important, the life of these animals and the value of the Arctic or which company has the best oil?14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Melanie Haber

Tell Bureau of Land Management: Deny CO2 Extraction on Federal Land in Huerfano CountyCO2 EOR is a tertiary method of oil recovery. The secondary method is forcing oil upward by water flooding. After EOR, oil companies attempt to retain the CO2 beneath the earth in a process called Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). The current trend is to gain Federal tax credits for CCS, and in some cases, plan to trade carbon storage credits for cash. CCS is a complex and difficult process due to the corrosive effects of CO2 on cement casings, metal valves, and pipes. Tell the BLM to leave the CO2 in the earth where it has safely existed for 25 million years, instead of using it to produce even more oil, which in turn creates even more CO2 greenhouse gas when the oil is used. Thank you for aiding Green Rockies Emerging Ecology Network (GREEN) in our efforts to protect the environment.95 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Edes

Stop Microwave Radiation and Wifi in California's Public Schools!Remember the old commercial: Tell two people who tell two people who tell two people and so on .... We must influence change and demonstrate that it is the people that have the power! Our children's health and safety are at stake. You will not see this issue discussed in mainstream media, we need to push this very relevant conversation in the direction of our elected officials. With your help we can make a change! THE POWER OF COMMUNITY! The microwave radiation from wireless devices has never been safety tested on children. The current regulations for the amount of radiation that children can be exposed to was set by the US army and was based on keeping recruits safe from short term exposure. Current guidelines are based on the premise that the microwave radiation is safe so long as it does not heat an average sized army recruit [6ft 1inch tall. 210 lbs] more than one degree centigrade in 6 minutes. Safety limits have not been adjusted for density/body weight of children. In addition to ZERO studies on the safety of long term microwave radiation exposure on children, there are also no studies on the compounded impact of metal/microwave radiation [braces, under wire bras]. According to Health Canada there are studies showing that microwave radiation reflects and is absorbed by metal. The World Health Organization has classified Wifi and like Radio-frequencies as a type 2B Carcinogen. We need to keep driving the awareness and alertness of the growing public concern about microwave radiation in our environment. Certainly in Europe, there is a great deal of change. Parents are demanding safe schools for their children - wifi free schools. France for example has eliminated wifi exposure within their schools. Please visit www.wifiexposure.com for more information about this and other initiatives taken within the European Communities and around the world. I would like to present our Petition to the Governor of California, the California Senate, and the California House of Representatives with as many signatures as possible, representing the growing numbers of Californians who want to err on the side of caution for their children and use hard wired connections to computers in schools. This cautionary approach would also protect teachers and non-teaching staff in schools. Please check out this video regarding the very real health and safety concerns regarding WIFI in schools: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvkxO8xLqMQ342 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Anura Lawson

Help Save Lake ErieThe Corp of Engineers dredges, annually on average 800,000 cubic yards of sediment from the Maumee River and the ship channel. This sediment contains phosphorous and nitrates from farms and sewage treatment from as far away as Indiana. The Corp then uses “open lake” dumping in Lake Erie to dispose of these dredged sediments because it is the “least expensive method of disposal”. Explain that to those who during the latest Toledo water crisis lost wages, businesses that lost income, and the continuing increased water treatment costs due to toxic algae, to be borne by Toledo water users. Dredged material dumped into Lake Erie visibly contributes to reduced water quality and provides the necessary ingredients for algae blooms. Continued phosphorous and nitrate loading of Lake Erie by the Corp of Engineers will not help improve water quality. We need now to permanently keep dredged material out of Lake Erie and not use it as a garbage dump.3,577 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by David Neuendorff
