If we don't have a healthy planet, everything else is moot. We need to STOP producing greenhouse gases and get serious about increasing penalties, enforcement of regulations, and changing from an energy dependency on fossil fuels. We HAVE to act on climate change, no more talking. Scientists have been talking about this for more than 40 years! Listen to them! Federal, State, Counties of EVERY state and all countries need to CHANGE!

We should enact a law requiring the source of energy to be revealed to the consumer. As a consumer, I do not want to purchase gasoline that comes from tar sands oil or natural gas obtained through hydraulic fracturing. However, I do not know when I go to the pump for gas, or pay my monthly gas bill to heat my home, where this energy is coming from.

We need better Public Transportation in The Bowie area of Prince George's County. We have limited transportation and limited transportation time schedules, this effects me personally because I do not drive I must depend on Public transportation; I am also disable I feel that we have a County Bus that does not even run in this area yet is all around this area. We also need longer hours and extended days. Better Public Transportation will ease the traffic problems, we can have cleaner air, and will provide better revenue for this area and Maryland in general. Elderly will be able to get to there shopping better and with the bus coming though the communities the Elderly will not have so far to walk and will cost them less then "Cabs, Metro access, etc. The roads in some of our communities are in bad need of repair and some of the major road could stand some repairs these conditions need to be address soon so they don't become worse.

In the past decade the Rails - to - Trails conservancy has taken a dangerous leap from advocating trail conversion on already abandoned rail coridors to advocating the abandonment of intact, functioning rail corridors for the purpose of trail use under the guise of "railbanking". This is of major concern to anyone with a stake in the green movement - and anyone who cares about the economic future of our nation. Rail is the most efficient means of transportation we've got, and we need to save every mile of railroad we have in America!

Profits from the exploitation and pollution of the commons is the driving force of the "socially enabled capitalistic system" that disregards Earth's life support systems in the equation. A failed paradigm from the past. Stop it.

We need governmental leaders and businesses to value a triple bottom line of People, Planet, and Profit. Profit maximization at the expense of People and Planet does not work for the economy of the 21st century and affects our society and environment. There is no longer a debate on climate change, it is real, it is here, and it is caused by human activity. If we continue to burn coal and oil to provide our energy and fuel our economy, and continue to use and dispose of our resources irresponsibly, there will be dire consequences to our ecosystem, our health, and inevitably our economy. Global temperature is rising from carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere and the world’s access to healthy food and water is diminishing. Warmer air holds more moisture than cold air which increases evaporation, resulting in more drought, flooding, storms, and more frequent and powerful “extreme weather events.” This pattern of global warming and climate change can still be reversed, but we need to act now by supporting policy and businesses that favor a triple bottom line. Will you support a petition, a business, a politician, or a country that leads its people, businesses, and policy to be more sustainable? Will you learn, share, and talk to others about sustainability? Will you create, support, and grow businesses that are humane, creative, and environmentally responsible? Will you govern in a way that you’re supposed to; by supporting and sustaining the conditions of human life - in an environmental and fiscally responsible way? Our goal is to reach 1,000,000 signatures by January 17th so that the President will address it in his Inauguration Day Speech on January 20th. Be bold and STAND UP FOR SUSTAINABILITY.

Help us save the California Delta - the largest freshwater estuary West of the Mississippi, critical to the Northern California environment (the most important biological asset on the west coast, home to 750 species of fish, birds and other animals), recreation, local Delta farmers and Delta economy. Water exports have increasingly affected Delta water quality, resulting in a salmon fishery closure in 2008/2009 with significant economic losses, all to benefit the desert farmland's big agribusiness millionaires. I live on the Delta and love it - it's my backyard. Current plans will cause the demise of salmon and other fish and fowl and will harm the Delta economy and the health and quality of Delta water.

St. Johns County is seeking support from the State of Florida to build a needless six lane highway through pristine marshland that is estimated to cost well over 200 million dollars.

Encourage Chevron/Standard Oil to update their Richmond refinery for safety and health of their neighbors and their employees.

It's the end of November and my azaleas are blooming in NE Kansas, for the 5th year. Also our temperature will reach 70 degrees this week. Something is wrong. Could it be climate change caused by man's use of fossil fuels?
