The Rocky Mountain Front in Montana is one most ecologically rich and pristine areas left in the lower 48 states; from the Blackfeet Indian Reservation and Glacier National Park south to Augusta, Montana. This pristine landscape and some of the highest water and air quality in the nation is currently threatened by indiscriminate oil and gas drilling using unregulated hydraulic fracturing; which involves the use of highly toxic chemicals and large quantities of precious surface and ground water for drilling. Chemicals such as benzyl chloride, benzene, toulene and many others and unregulated placement of well pads near rivers, lakes, streams and rural residences pose a direct threat to the health of people and environment. We petition a ban on fracking on the Rocky Mountain Front, Montana.

The US Geological Service released in report in 2012 which found natural gas in the Hartford Shale of Western and Central MA. We must not allow environmentally damaging fracking in MA.

Some 1/3rd of all land is desert, and most of the 920 million people living in or near those deserts are on the "brink-of-starvation." A number of current conflicts were caused by hunger issues.

This petition is about getting Congress to support a new green energy technology opposed by "big oil" and "big coal."

SUGGEST and or ENFORCE that all businesses of every kind; schools, churches, gas stations, grocery stores, apt. complexes etc., make available to consumers etc. RECYCLE BINS to be able to RECYCLE when they are NOT at home or feel the need to take items home to RECYCLE.

Arch Coal's Adkins Fork mountaintop removal (MTR) coal mining permit would destroy an important part of the Blair Mountain battlefield in West Virginia, site of the largest labor uprising in US history. MTR is destroying our health, heritage, environment, and communities. Appalachians deserve a better future.

Hydraulic Fracturing is an issue going on all around the nation. Shale gas is the next best thing for America relieving us of our dependence on foreign oil. But to do so by trampling the health of the citizens is NOT okay! We have a fundamental right to clean air and water. We have a right not to be burdened by earthquakes cause by the fracturing of underground shale! We deserve to be free from harmful chemicals and radiation in our own drinking water. I know people who have been personally affected by it and when I heard it would start in Ohio, I became very scared. I have done a lot of research on the topic including one on why do so is unethical. It pains me to read about what has happened to people. The health of the citizens needs to come above natural gas.

Our 300 tree apple orchard, with30 varieties has been lost to the use of herbicides on roadsides and by power providers. It took 25 yeasr to build an agribusiness which produced 500 to 800 bushels per year. Even more serious, the quality of all Missouri water is affected by the fact that every road and every right of way in this state gets chemical treatment, sometimes several times a year.

Jamba Juice uses styrofoam cups in the majority of their stores. I have seen a petition before asking Jamba Juice to stop using styrofoam and it has worked in the past in a few stores. Now we need to get them to take the initiative to end the cups nationwide!

The issue of human-caused global warming has been largely ignored by the national government because of the influence of powerful energy-guzzling corporations. Some politicians still deny its very existence. The truth is that global warming and the accompanying damage, already evident in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, threatens our very way of life. Opponents maintain, however, that the US would suffer an economic meltdown and incredible loss of jobs should an attempt be made to shut down the gas and coal industries. The solution to global warming while maintaining a healthy economy is simple, if controversial: the US government must nationalize coal and oil corporations and gradually redistribute jobs and investments to renewable energy industries like solar and wind.
