• Preserve Neighborhood Character
    We want reasonable, green, development at 480 Potrero that fits the neighborhood character. The current design is too massive, does not provide enough parking, does not protect the Verdi Club, does not provide green open space for new residents and does not fit the neighborhood character.

  • BLM: Please keep oil and gas leases out of the San Rafael Swell
    The San Rafael Swell is one of Utah's most unique landscapes. It covers 2,000 square miles of narrow canyons, hoodoos, towering cliffs, and breathtaking views; it is truly an desert paradise and an outdoor lover's dream, visited by thousands of tourists every year. Recently, the Bureau of Land Management announced its plans to lease 80,000 acres in and around the San Rafael Swell--including areas that have been proposed for wilderness designation. These leases will hit the auction block on November 19th. Please sign this petition in support of protecting the San Rafael Swell from oil and gas development. Let the BLM know that these 80,000 parcels need to remain untouched.

  • Fukushima is Not Just Japan’s Problem: An International Group of Nuclear Experts Must Be Assembled
    The danger of huge releases of radiation during impending operations at the Fukushima Dai'ichi Nuclear Power Plant requires the utmost cooperation, skill, and finesse of the finest scientific and engineering minds from around the world. The United States must take the lead at this critical time to see that such a group is gathered and in place when the fuel rods are moved. The continued viability of life on Earth is at stake. It is a global issue.

  • Students For A Tar Sands-Free Northeast
    Because Trailbreaker is an old pipeline and Tar Sands is far more corrosive than other oil, the chances of a spill are almost inevitable. Such a spill would be catastrophic to the watersheds of Maine. New England has the opportunity to take a stand against this and continued climate change.

  • Support Carbon Neutrality
    Benjamin Franklin is attributed with saying: "If we can keep them asking the wrong questions, we'll never have to worry about the answers". Those who would argue against a carbon tax will tell you that it would kill jobs, crash the economy or ruin our trade opportunities. Only we can decide what we want the future to look like and what the inheritance we'll leave our children will be. Will we be remembered for our creativity or our destructiveness? Science has informed us that by the year 2047 we will have created an inhospitable climate, we can't wait to for business decisions to catch up with science. We must act now.

  • Monitor radioactivity from Fukushima
    This is a catastrophe for the Japanese people and potentially for the rest of the world, certainly for those who border the Pacific Ocean. We must help the Japanese prevent a worse disaster.

  • Rescind Use of Federal Lands for Hydraulic Fracking of Natural Gas
    Hydraulic fracking has terrible environmental consequences: depletion of fresh water, adverse effect on agriculture, inducing silicosis in workers involved in fracking process, releasing toxic substances into the air, admixture of radioactive cancer inducing radon with the extracted natural gas, and also inducing earthquakes. Even more seriously, fracking releases into the atmosphere green house gas methane (major component of natural gas) which is 100 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20 year period in destabilizing the climate resiliency. Ensure no public funds are used to finance any further fracking for natural gas on federal lands.
