The new led and other light bulbs give me a headache and have mercury in them. I want to purchase the old regular light bulbs that I have used all my life. The EPA has required stores to stop selling these and only sell the new ones.

Fracking is an unregulated, lethal, toxic gas/oil extraction process exempted from the Clean Air, Clean Water, Clean Drinking Water, Superfund, Environmental Policy Acts. Exempt means they are not liable for and are immune from any claims of any damages or harm inflicted on the environment, homeowners, landowners, municipalities, food crops, farm animals, ground water, aquifers, rivers, streams, air, ecosystems as a result of their operation which has a history of devastating and deadly accidents, spills, and explosions.

The gas and oil industries have their eyes on at least 17 counties in southern Illinois, as prospects for fracking. Myths about “clean” energy must be dispelled. Those living in the vicinity of where fracking is done have suffered deaths of their animals, have unexplained illnesses, constant headaches, nausea, and deaths. The unleashed methane has caused water faucets, when turned on, to become “blow torches,” and even homes to explode. Wells have exploded. Millions of gallons of water coupled with toxic chemicals are used to inject into rock formations to break them up, the “run-offs” of which foul our waters . . . .and where is the end to water befoulment? Fracking also can cause earthquakes. Fracking is just plain dangerous to our environment period!

The neglect of our local riparian habitats must stop. Implementation of BNWR's mandated purpose must occur through a broad and transparent application of water management- going beyond the present insufficient regard as proposed in the initial Comprehensive Conservation Plan- Environmental Impact Study (EIS)

We don't know what fracking will do to our water supplies. We don't know what the chemicals fracking uses will do to our soils. Our bountiful agriculture and healthy citizens are more important than riches for a few.

I am oppose to fracking in Illinois because of detrimental effect to our environment.

It poisons water and has been a major factor in climate change.

We are all affected by the hidden costs of fossil fuels and nuclear power. They are bad for our environment, for our health, and for our ability to compete with regions switching to more secure and sustainable energy systems. The faster we switch to renewables, the sooner we will avoid these costs.

deny everything and sent on a 40 mile one way trip.

With renewable energy available at so little environmental cost, why on earth would we allow ignorant and destructive practices like fracking?

Want Das Williams to publically support a ban on fracking.

We know that fracking will waste millions of gallons of drinking water and inject millions of gallons of chemicals into California's lands and waterways. Our lands generate billions of dollars in revenue through agriculture. Our water supply is diminishing. We must protect California's water and food supplies.
