The leadership of Animal Services is not merely a bureaucratic position; it is a role that directly impacts the safety, health, and lives of the most vulnerable animals in our community. This petition is vital because the current climate of unprofessionalism and administrative neglect has compromised the fundamental mission of the department.

People should join this movement because it offers something Indianapolis is missing: a real, practical, humane path forward. This campaign isn’t about blame or politics — it’s about building a city where everyone has the chance to be safe, stable, and part of the community. This is a great opportunity to build stronger neighborhoods. Community gardens, greenhouse projects, beautification work, and small‑business partnerships all create:  • cleaner streets  • safer parks  • more local pride  • stronger relationships between neighbors  Not everyone can donate money or volunteer every week.  But everyone can:  • sign a petition  • share information  • support fair‑wage programs  • advocate for humane policies 

You may hear arguments to the contrary, but data centers do increase demand for electricity, either at the center itself or passed on to local electric companies and residents foot the bill.  Some will argue that there is no demand on water. DCs need lots of water to cool their systems.  The Southwest Florida Water Management District has declared a Phase III Extreme Water Shortage in effect from April 3 through July 1.  Do we really need to put any additional strain on our water supply?  A huge data center will completely disrupt the quiet, natural environment of our county. Hundreds of servers operating together create a constant hum. Cooling systems can produce low frequency drones that can travel several miles. Emergency backup generators create additional noise and air pollution when in use. Nighttime security lighting will disrupt animal sleep cycles and migration routes. What will this do to the remaining wildlife in the area? Data Centers tend to raise the temperature of the surrounding areas from 3 to 10+ degrees over several miles. Over 30,000 residents of Citrus Couty live within 5 miles of the potential build. Hernando, Forest Ridge and Citrus Springs Elementary Schools and Citrus Springs Middle School are within 5 miles of this site. All residents of Citrus County will be impacted by these changes. Please contact your County Commissioners and tell them, "Stop rezoning at the Holder Industrial site." Go to https://www.citruscounty.gov/government/county/_commissioners/index.php for county commissioner contact info. We are running out of time to stop this intrusion.  Please send a direct link to this petition at https://sign.moveon.org/p/nodatacenterforcitruscouny to all your friends.

Every time I drive at night, I am confronted with the same problem: how to maintain safe driving when I can barely see the road because of LED headlights. I understand that it is not the driver's fault, as most modern vehicles now come equipped with them. However, that does not change the fact that they can create unsafe situations due to the excessively bright and distracting glare. As an everyday driver—or even as a pedestrian—you have likely experienced at least one moment where you had to squint your eyes or make an educated guess that you were still on the road because of how bright LED headlights have become. Something needs to be done about this issue in order to keep our roads safe for ourselves and for future generations.

Why This Campaign Matters Plastic pollution is one of the most visible and preventable problems in our community. Disposable plastic bags clog storm drains, litter our neighborhoods, harm wildlife, and break down into microplastics that end up in our waterways and soil. Frederick County spends time and resources cleaning up something that doesn’t need to be created in the first place. A small, avoidable 5¢ fee is one of the simplest and most effective tools available to reduce plastic waste. Communities across Virginia have already seen dramatic reductions in litter after adopting this policy. The revenue stays local and can only be used for cleanup, environmental education, and providing reusable bags to residents who need them. This campaign is about taking a practical, commonsense step that protects our environment, reduces waste, and strengthens our community’s long‑term health. 🤝 Why Others Should Join This Effort This campaign is about more than plastic bags — it’s about showing that Frederick County cares about stewardship, responsibility, and the kind of community we want to leave for future generations. When more people add their names, it sends a clear message to Board of Supervisors that residents want action, not just talk. Every signature demonstrates that Frederick County is ready for solutions that are simple, fair, and proven to work. Joining this campaign means: • Supporting cleaner streets, parks, and waterways • Reducing long‑term environmental and financial costs • Helping ensure reusable bags reach residents who need them • Showing City Council that this issue matters to the people they serve Collective action is powerful. When neighbors stand together, we can move our county toward policies that reflect our shared values and make Winchester a cleaner, healthier place for everyone.

The original permit specifying that the facility will process petroleum soil was issued more than 30 years ago. We agree with the CEO that this does not reflect the full scope of ESMI/Clean Earth's current business. Therefore, it is logical that the company needs to either apply for a new permit or return to the original scope of work.  We disagree with the letter that the company's lawyers submitted to the ZBA in February demanding that this determination be revoked. The letter describes how the ESMI facility has gradually increased their scope to include the treatment of various materials including paper pulp, PCBs, sewage sludge and more. The letter asserts that all of these were reasonable extensions to the existing permit and have been allowed up to this point. They state that the original permit allows them to operate "without restriction", "without limitation" and ask why things should change now that the company is planning to add PFAS to the list of contaminants. The letter theorizes that the decision to suddenly impose a strict interpretation of the code is politically motivated and was prompted by "out of state environmental activists." This is simply not correct. We, the people who live here, pay taxes here, and raise our families here, agree with the Code Enforcement Officer's opinion and reject the reasoning of ESMI/Clean Earth. We request that the ZBA keep Fort Edward safe by denying this appeal. We believe that failing to do so would set dangerous precedent, undermine the authority of the village, and lead to possible harm to health and human safety. 

Heat affects everyone’s health, safety, and ability to learn on campus. As temperatures rise, shaded and sustainable spaces are becoming a necessity, not a luxury. By working together, we can push for changes that make California State University, Northridge a safer and more comfortable place for all students.

This club will provide students with unique hands on opportunities to develop outdoor skills, deepen their understanding of local ecosystems, and foster a lifelong appreciation for respecting wildlife. Through structured lessons and field experiences, members will engage with real-world science, practice ethical outdoor recreation, and contribute meaningfully to local conservation efforts. We believe this club will enrich our school community and connect students with the natural world in powerful and lasting ways. it is good for students who enjoy the outdoors, nature, and fishing, and want to be a part of something.

Normally, our cookie season runs from January to March, when temperatures are the coldest. Many of our local businesses will not allow our girls inside, which forces us to stand outside and deal with freezing cold temperatures like wind, snow, ice, etc., as well as having to cancel booths due to bad/unsafe weather. Parents have concerns about their girls getting sick, which makes them hesitant to sign them up for these outdoor booths. And the girls are losing out on cookie selling opportunities. The girls and our volunteers also know first-hand what it feels like to lose feeling in our hands, fingers, toes, etc., despite how many "hot hands" we use, especially the girls who work a full day just to try and meet their goals. Our girls continue to push past the extreme discomfort of being outside, in the cold for hours, and work hard to sell as many cookies as they can, to earn money for trips and activities, as well as cookie prizes. But our hope is enough people will sign this petition so we can get Girl Scouts of Eastern PA, or maybe even Girl Scouts of America, to move our cookie season to slightly warmer months. Thank you in advance for your support of our cause! 

Keep Novelty Road Rural

If we allow Joplin City Council to strong arm us into this potentially damaging data/Bitcoin Mining Center, then our voice will have been silenced. A twelve month moratorium will give those of us opposed to this "snake oil sale" time to conduct an environmental study, identify potential at risk flora and endangered species, research past environmental impacts of these highly controversial, and largely opposed - Data/Bitcoin Mining Operations - here, and abroad. Data suggests that these centers are just another cog in the corporate greed growth wheel, that trickles down few benefits for those of us living here. One must ask - why are we allowing a potential Chinese Data Center - or any Dra Center for that matter, to locate in our backyard? Time to stand up, show up, and speak out. Don't let City Hall silence our voice!
