For years, deniers of sound science have rejected everything from global warming to pollutants in our waterways. This approach has led to a significant rollback in key clean water protections: more than 59 percent of U.S. streams and 20 million acres of wetlands are vulnerable to toxic dumping and pollution. Fortunately, the Environmental Protection Agency has taken steps to address this error by relying on sound science to help restore these key protections. The EPA needs to hear from you: speak out for sound science and clean water. The EPA’s preliminary scientific report confirms that streams, wetlands, and floodplains—regardless of their size or how frequently they flow—are connected to downstream waters. The EPA must finalize this report and follow the science by restoring protections to waters that supply drinking water to 117 million Americans. Simply put, we need stronger protections for these critical watersheds. Your ability to fish in, swim in, and drink clean water is at stake! The Clean Water Act is our nation’s best guard against dirty and contaminated waters. Earthjustice has been working to defend and enforce the Clean Water Act for decades. Please join us in urging the EPA to finalize its Science Report quickly; follow its conclusions regarding the importance of ALL streams, wetlands, and open waters to U.S. waterways; and apply sound science to restore protections to these critical and interconnected water bodies.

Petition to the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin regarding American Transmission Company application5-CE-142 (Active) and their proposal to Construct and Operate a New 345 kV Transmission Line from the La Crosse area, in La Crosse County to the Greater Madison area in Dane County, Wisconsin. The project is Referred to as the Badger Coulee Project. In signing this petition I hereby request the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin to drop the proposed "Northern Route" of the ATC proposed Badger Coulee Line, that would adversely and negatively affect the Town of Holland. This would be the second time in the past 3 years that a power line would run through our beautiful community, and it is not needed and not wanted. We do not deserve to become a grid for power line companies to route their power East. By signing this petition, we fully support the attached comprehensive letter of opposition that the Town of Holland Citizens Energy Committee is submitting to the power line companies and to the PSC.

Having a recycling symbol on all recyclable bags and plastics will help reduce the accumulating trash. If an item is not recyclable it should be marked so that people are aware that it will become part of the landfills. This would encourage companies to find recyclable solutions to their packaging.

In the early and mid 90's Proposition A which was sponsored by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors was passed by a majority of the Los Angeles County taxpayers. Part of Prop A a park proposition was used for acquiring land as Open Spaces and to keep it that way for perpetuity (forever) and for upgrading parks. Now, the Whittier City Council wants to turn the Open Space land into an oil field. They are trying to change the "land use" for the land which was purchased with Prop A money. If Whittier is successful then all Open Space land that was purchased with Los Angeles County Prop A money can have their land use changed to oil fields. This could have a ripple effect throughout the State of California by allowing land use changes on land in the State that was purchased with similar propositions. On October 29, 2013 at 9:30 A.M. the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors will be having a Public Hearing on Prop A. The purpose of the hearing is to get public input on changing the "land use" into an oil field. WE OPPOSE THE OIL PROJECT AND LAND USE CHANGES. We urge you to attend the meeting if at all possible. In the event you cannot attend you can make your comments on this petition and it will be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has the power to stop this project. Can't Drill Can't Frack. Location: Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration Executive Office of the Board Room 383 500 West Temple Street Los Angeles, Ca. 90012

Almost all of the packaging used at Five Guys is paper; paper bags, paper french fry containers, paper napkins, etc.; but all of it is just thrown away. If the option to recycle was introduced into the Five Guys restaurants, paper waste could be almost completely abolished. This would not only save considerable landfill space, but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Next week, the Public Utilities Commission Nevada (PUCN) is hearing from the public on the merger of Mid American and NV Energy. We need to make sure the PUCN knows that Nevadans support cleaning Nevada's air by decommissioning our remaining coal fired power plants and making investments now to build Nevada's clean energy economy.

The Solutions Project has plans on how to use cost-effective, clean, renewable energy using current technology to power the country. Shovel-ready projects are already available for the states of California and New York with plans for the remaining 48 states coming fast on their heels. Humans face an unprecedented choice: we either adopt this plan to secure a planet for our children and grandchildren or we can do nothing and continue burning fossil fuels which will guarantee climate chaos .

Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald is planning on allowing fracking on or under our parks. Fracking our parks would industrialize land reserved for recreation and relaxation, bringing dangerous and polluting infrastructure such as pipelines, compressor stations and truck traffic right through our community's public spaces. Fracking is destroying communities around Pennsylvania. We need to keep this dangerous practice out of Allegheny County parks.

These chemicals get into the Respiratory System then, according to Dr. Raymond Singer, a neurologist, the chemicals get into the Nervous System to cause excruciating pain and disability, as stated in his article, Recognizing Neurotoxicity. The chemicals also get into in Vital Organ to disable and cause death. Plus, these chemicals get into Pathway from the lungs to all parts of the body plus the pressure points. These chemicals attack the body to appear as natural causes, for example, cramping, itching, needle like, dart like, spark like, throbbing, sharp and intense pain, burning pain, vibrating in a circular motion, intense drop like, heat, cold, instant sleep, nausea and dizziness, another chemical that causes a lot of pain in the vagina, on the head and on the back, attacks the brain cells to be forgetful and displacement. some of these symptoms can be applied all parts of the body and cause disability and pain. These can be topical or go though the Respiratory System to all parts of the body. For example, starting with the head, top of head, right and left side, back of head, sides of temple, forehead, hairline to the front around the face, eyes, eye lashes, corner of eyes, back of eyes, inside to the front of eyes, (causes blood red spots) watering of eyes, pain in eyes, blurring, nose, nostrils, entrance of nostrils, eyelashes, eye brows, between eye brows, cheeks, between nose and lips, lips, chin, jaws, teeth(front upper and lower plus the whole mouth or individual tooth tongue, inside of cheek, throat(burning and itching turning into a cough that never stops going into bronchitis and pneumonia, upper chest, chest(double needle causing very high blood pressure, this can kill someone with a heart problem), middle of chest, left and right breast,under arms towards breasts, shoulders, upper arms, elbows, lower arms, wrists, palms of hands and top of hands plus all fingers and under nails, stomach, inside of stomach, spark like in stomach, lower tummy. uterus, vagina(more that 20 fumes, between leg and vagina, anus, buttocks, under buttocks, back of thighs, thighs, front of knees, knees, lower front leg, side of legs, ankles, back of feet, top of feet, under feet and toes, toes, big toes, under nails, inner feet, and it goes on and on. All the parts can experience the symptoms I listed above. These chemicals that are created, are focused to any part to disable and cause death to Human Beings and animals. It is urgent to stop the behaviors to destroy life and pollute the environment. We need clean air for Humanity and the future generation. Now, is the time to do a proper Investigation to retrieve the chemicals for testing and assessment, because the authorities have more information about the chemicals in the environment and indoors. Thus, stopping this behavior in Minneapolis, MN, will stop it in all States of America and countries around the World.
