I have a relative who is fighting Fracking. It has caused her and her neighbor's homes to shift on their foundations/slabs and threatens their neighborhood with carcinogenic chemicals. Yes, it is happening 1/2 mile from homes in a very prestigious neighborhood where the average price was $700k. How would you like to have your home and life threatened with the greatest abuse to the environment known?

Stop Fracking in California!

Idaho Power, Idaho's leading energy company, wants to stop rewarding their customers who use alternative energies to power their homes, businesses and farms. Ranchers like Roger Findley of Idaho have installed solar panels and wind turbines to offset carbon gas emissions and have earned monetary credits through Idaho Power utilizing these methods. Idaho Power is planning on putting a stop to this and will make a final decision this summer. Please sign our petition to keep incentives for alternative energy in Idaho.

Every Day airplanes by the dozens dump toxic chemicals "Chemtrails" and compounds into the air we breath. It is responsible for many of the illnesses we face today & needs to be seriously addressed!

For the first time in 30 years, New Mexico may open its doors to uranium mining. Uranium mining can cause permanent damage to our water supplies through the leaching of radioactive materials into groundwater, not to mention the fact that it takes millions of gallons of water a day to operate a mine. Worse yet—they want to mine on Mt. Taylor, a mountain sacred to the Navajo and Pueblos and the highest point in the Cibola National Forest. Allowing mining anywhere near the mountain would be devastating. Please sign the petition below and show the U.S. Forest Service that New Mexicans do not want this type of destruction in our state. Public comments are open until May 14.

The political group founded by Mark Zuckerberg, "Fwd.us", is spending more than a million dollars running ads to support candidates who voted the wrong way on drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and on the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. And Facebook is reportedly rejecting ads that criticized Fwd.us for taking this action. This is absurd. Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg should not be supporting dirty energy and the political allies of dirty energy companies. Sign our petition to make sure Mark Zuckerberg hears how much we dislike this!

Get the EPA to outlaw the use of neonicotinold insecticides. It is killing the bees.

We must end the silence surrounding the damage and destruction that we are causing the earth.

Fracking is the use of high-volume, hydraulic fracturing of the earth to release natural gas for use in energy. Horror stories from other states about open pits of toxic wastewater, secret brews of toxins injected into the earth, air emissions sickening neighbors, and contaminated drinking water are just a few of the impacts seen elsewhere. The prospect of the gas industry coming Illinois to extract gas from beneath our state using high-volume hydraulic fracturing has caused a great deal of controversy and concern, especially in parts of Illinois where leasing for drilling rights has been underway for well over a year.

According to Dr. James E. Hansen, former head of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies and its most famous climate scientist, a bi-lateral carbon tax is our last best hope to stop the irreversible effects of global warming. The carbon tax would steer consumers and businesses toward products and energy sources having low carbon foot prints such as wind and solar power, locally grown food, electric vehicles and 4g nuclear power solutions which would replace aging backbone coal fired plants. Market forces and new technologies would determine future product winners and losers over the transitional period of ten years as the carbon tax increases at a predictable rate. If the US and China implement a unified carbon tax the rest of the world will follow or pay import duties to the world's two largest economies. Consumers can use the Carbon Dividend to offset the higher price of energy.

The Valles Caldera National Preserve in New Mexico will lose virtually all protections in 2015 if Congress doesn't include it in the National Park system as a National Preserve. It's urgent that Congress pass Senate Bill 285 as soon as possible to secure the Preserve's future. New Mexico's economy will benefit and this spectacular place will be protected for all time.
