We Advocate for the preservation of West Hayden Island, as a state park to give people access to nature and preserve wildlife. Port of Portland wants the city of Portland to annex W. Hayden Is. so that the Port can turn W. Hayden Is. into a parking lot and industrial area. The Port already has sites that are unused. Audubon, Sierra Club, Oregon and Washington Indian Tribes and Metro residents have voiced opposition to development of this site, one of the last remaining, highly diverse natural areas on the Columbia River in the Portland, Oregon Metro Area.

Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors (LFTRs) are safe and can provide energy and water security for the entire world for thousands of years. LFTRs cannot melt down (they’re molten by design), they do not need backup power (as did Fukushima), they produce less than 1% of the waste of current reactors, they use abundant thorium instead of uranium for fuel, they can be used to generate hydrogen (as a basis for synthetic fuels to replace gasoline and diesel), they can be mass produced, they cannot be used to generate weapons material, and they can be used to replace oil as the energy source for the ever-growing desalination needs of the world. For background information of LFTRs, copy and paste this link into your browser's address bar: http://stopglobalwarmingpetition.blogspot.com/

Airborne emissions permitted from some facilities in California subject to the "Toxic Hot Spots" Act (former AB-2588) have been found to deposit and accumulate on surfaces such as roofs, streets and sidewalks as well as into soils where the public is exposed. Some of the deposition/accumulation has been to hazardous waste levels. The Department of Toxic Substances Control and the local air quality management districts must be required to jointly address this problem.

We are concerned about the effects of hydraulic fracturing (fracking) on our environment, quality of life and health. We wish to safe guard our clean water supplies for human, crop and livestock consumption, our starry night skies from light pollution, our roads from destruction, our families from violent lawless behavior, our earth and our health from caustic carcinogenic chemicals, our property from right of way violations and our infrastructure from the devastation of earthquakes.

We are all stewards of the earth, and it is our responsibility to take care of our land and water. Hydrofracking is inconsistent with that responsibility and should not be allowed anywhere in the State of New York.

Generating electricity from solar photovoltaics (PV) will reduce pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in California. It will also create jobs and improve the economy of California.

NY needs to utilize its pristine land & water to create long term jobs in Organic Sustainable Farming and Green Energy > not Fracking. We live on food > not gas & oil. It is time all realize this simple truth which no one can deny and start the process of saving our existence before it is too late. We are at the point of no return and if we do not choose the right direction, life as we know it will end ! Be a true leader and do the right thing for NY and the entire planet. Send a clear message to the rest of the world that to survive, this is the direction we all must take.

Florida's aquifer is being drained at an alarming rate that is unsustainable in the long term. We must act now to protect the supply of fresh water that is vital not only to Florida's ecosystem but also the economy.

The FDA is poised to approve genetically engineered salmon for human consumption. We only have until April 26th to tell them no! This salmon would be the first-ever genetically engineered animal to sneak onto our dinner plates -- and it likely won’t be labeled! Please urge the FDA to conduct a full Environmental Impact Statement that considers the dangers genetically engineered salmon would pose to wild salmon and ocean ecosystems.

GMO ingredients, food & products as well as GE engineered fish have never been adequately tested and are harmful to our & our animals health. Even though GMO's have been used for approx 20 yrs in ingredients such as corn, soybeans & wheat products - they are harmful & have not been adequately tested to prove they are not. My rabbit, cats & dogs when given food with GMO products in them right next to non GMO products will choose the NON gmo food every time!

Hydrolic fracturing, or fracking, by the gas industry, is trying to make a foothold in New York State. The process they use to extract gas from shale, deep in the earth's surface is extremely volitile, never proven safe, & effects all of us through our drinking water, food, & the air we breath. Governor Cuomo has the power to ban fracking in the entire state.

All I have to say about offshore drilling in NC/SC/VA is "VISIT THE GULF", and remember the effects of the recent BP spill there. Our offshore coast is much more prone to weather damage, ie. hurricanes & storms, making the spill possibility alone much more likely. Please do NOT consent to off-shore drilling in NC/SC/VA !!
