I am a professional biologist and ecologist with a long career invested in environmental conservation.

I am starting this Petition because of the neglect of our environment to the point of disaster when the oil, gas, & nuclear industries have known and suppressed advanced energy technologies for years; but because of their greed, have continued to destroy our environment without regard of its inhabitants - or the earth itself.

Using natural sun energy to power towns. Place solar panels on unused space like roof tops in Nevada, Arizona, Florida and other sunny areas to save on electricity and the environment.

Without water, people,nature,creatures,etc cannot live.

The Ravalli County commissioners are trying to get local federally administrated public lands turned over to county control. These lands are held in trust for all Americans and should not come under the control of a county government. This could ultimately lead to these lands ending up in private hands.

Energy is one of the leading causes for economic, political, and environmental crises in the world. By circumventing all need to deplete the earth of essential resources, and providing a means for the entire world to have free, clean, dependable energy, we can change the world into what few have even dreamed of. The technology already exists; all that is necessary is public and financial support, most easily navigated through public office.

Our communities are the toilet for the turbid water releasing for NYC. We must preserve our rights to clean water too! NYC has plenty of money to use another alternative than the cheapest one which is to use our Esopus Creek for their toilet bowl.

Hello, After the huge Typhoon hit the Phillipines, we now know it is due in part to the burning of methane at every frack well, when it is now a fact that the Bakken Shale methane flaring can be seen from outer space. This dangerous process of harvesting natural gas needs stopped NOW.

If this project is allowed to go forward we will be left with undrinkable water for our children and grandchildren, unwillingly contributing to the ongoing angst of our northern neighbors in Inyo and ultimately left reeling, like everyone is left to do when they’ve been ravaged by any project of this kind.

In the U.S., devastating storms are called “natural disasters.” In the Philippines, it’s just called “weather.” I learned from my mom and dad about the remarkable resilience of Filipino people that keeps them calm in the face of disaster. The Philippines is a republic made of more than 7,000 islands sitting on the Pacific Ring of Fire, making it prone to both earthquakes and typhoons. In the Philippines, folks just learn how to cope, say a little "bahala na," and work together to rebuild. It takes a lot to faze Filipinos when it comes to weather. But now, in the wake of Super Typhoon Haiyan, I fear my people are fazed. What happened to the Philippines four days ago isn’t just frightening -- it’s a clear sign that climate change is real. The climate CHANGED, and Haiyan is proof. We must not simply “feel” for the Filipino people, but we must also “do.” Please support Saño’s hunger strike and demand action from UN Climate Change Conference delegates. As folks living outside of the Philippines, this our chance to to keep the flame of resilience alive -- for Filipinos, all people, and our very fragile planet.

Horrific and historic natural disasters are becoming the new norm. Drought, floods, and fires rage. We need to be building an all-encompassing renewable energy infrastructure dealing with anything that emits a greenhouse gas including boilers, vehicles, whatever you can think of. The EPA's and President Obama's current plan to slightly curb emissions from power plants is not nearly good enough. George Carlin once intimated that the planet was just fine before humans were here and that it would almost certainly be just fine after humans are gone. At this crucial point it is not just about saving this planet, it's about saving the inhabitants of this planet. (That's us. All of us.)
