CONGRESS, PASS EXTENSION OF WIND POWER TAX CREDITThe tax credit for wind energy is set to expire at the end of this year if Congress doesn't take action. Unlike fossil fuel subsidies, which are long term and have never expired, subsidies for renewable energy have been terminated three times in the last two decades. It is time we become serious about fighting climate change. Supporting renewable energy will not only decrease our CO2 emissions but will also support our economy and help us move toward energy independence.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Andrea Storrs

OPT OUT: CREATE DO NOT MAIL OR CALL LISTS FOR POLITICAL ADSAccording to the Washington Post, by the end of September more than $200 million had been spent on print ads by the two primary Presidential campaigns alone. Hundreds of millions more have been wasted on Senate and House campaigns. They're junking up our mailboxes, swamping our landfills, and wasting natural resources. Most people pitch them without even looking at them because none of the ads can be trusted to provide unbiased facts. We need a way to OPT OUT.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by S. Downing

We demand one more debate on Climate ChangeClimate Change was not addressed at all during the 3 Presidential debates despite the fact that it's both a pressing domestic and foreign policy issue. We demand that President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney agree to one final debate before election day on one subject, climate change.134 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Raven Brooks

Take Back the Tap at ClarkWe are a group of students working to ban the sale of bottled water on the Clark Univeristy campus. -Bottled water creates unnecessary waste; 86% of bottled water ends up in landfills. - Bottled water is typically more than a thousand times more expensive than tapped water. - The PET plastic used to produce bottled water is produced using the chemical benzene which is correlated with the development and other health problems. Please sign the following petition to show your support and make a difference on our campus. Thank you233 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Tiffany Kline

A Costly Bill Putting Our Economy and Rivers at RiskCongressman “Doc” Hastings introduced legislation that would stop river restoration in communities nationwide, hurt local economies, and strip away wildlife protections all to benefit a handful of special interests. This “Dangerous Dams Protection Act” would do sweeping damage to rivers across the country. It would: * Harm rivers and wildlife and threaten public safety by prohibiting federal funds to be used to remove or study the removal of any hydropower dam - even unsafe dams that the dam owner and the local community want to remove. * Slow job growth and hurt businesses by bringing river restoration to a screeching halt and stopping growth in commercial and recreational fishing. * Create an expensive new subsidy that would not only allow private groups to build new dams, whether or not they are in the public interest, but taxpayers would have to reimburse the full cost. This irresponsible bill could be up for debate this month. Will you tell your Representative to oppose this destructive vision for rivers and hydropower – one that is at odds with mainstream thinking about hydropower policy?224 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jeff Wiedner
