• Regulate coal ash!
    My family and friends have suffered from an inordinate amount of asthma attacks,cancer and heart problems due to coal-fired electric power plants and the coal ash that is openly stockpiled next to the power plants. This coal ash from coal-fired power plants continues to pollute Kentuckians and many other Americans living in areas where coal is burned to provide electricity. Coal ash is toxic and should be regulated by the US EPA asap!

  • Ban Chemical Aerosols Polluting Our Air
    There is a huge program now in progress to spray metal dust from high flying jets that settles on populated areas and causes extensive air pollution. It is being done nation wide and the materials used are toxic. The clouds of dust linger in the sky for many hours and settle into gray haze near the ground where we then must inhale the pollutants. This practice is outrageous and must be stopped.

  • Governor Cuomo: No Hydrofracking in N.Y.
    Governor Cuomo of New York has the ability to stop the gas companies from hydrofracking in New York State. Gas Lobbyists are working diligently to pressure him into approving hydrofracking in the Marcellus Shale Bed which endangers not only the environment, but the lives and health of its citizens. There are more environmentally friendly ways of meeting our energy needs such as wind and solar. Tell Governor Cuomo not to approve hydrofracking in the state of New York.

    Once again, Mount Tom -- not only an icon of the Connecticut River Valley but one of Massachusetts' most important natural areas -- is being treated as a potential site for intensive commercial development. Multi-story, brightly-lit buildings and overwhelming traffic should never despoil this keystone of the area's landscape, outdoor recreation, wildlife corridor, and rare species habitat -- a decades-long focus of local, state, federal, and non-profit land conservation efforts.
