The Safari Club International will be meeting in Reno, Nevada this month for Safari Club International’s annual convention. This convention features trophy hunting opportunities and wildlife "trophies" or parts and products derived from wild animals. The Safari Club International has historically promoted and supported the killing of species for no use other than as "trophies." It has recently worked to prevent the protection of gray wolves and giraffes under the Endangered Species Act; most alarmingly, the Safari Club International supported the Trump Administration's revisions to its responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act. These revisions–that the Safari Club International loudly supported–will limit habitat protections, make protecting species from climate change more difficult, and allow economic cost of protection to be a guiding factor in future species protection decisions. These changes are the gravest attack on the Endangered Species Act in decades and the Safari Club International supported them through advocacy and lobbying. The Beach Boys should not endorse this culture of killing and extinction and should cancel their appearance at the Safari Club International convention.

More importantly, the Mayor of Durham, Hon. Steve Schewel, has already verbally expressed his understanding, agreement and support for the establishment of such community Facility during his visit on January 15th, 2020. In just a few short years we have had a population growth spurt which has tripled the size of the North section of the City due to aggressive residential Real Estate Development. However, the children and seniors of these tens of thousands of new Residents have no Community Recreational Facility and therefore play in the street which is unsafe, unnecessary and unacceptable.

Animals are creatures with emotions, feelings, thoughts, and an innate spark of human life which most people do not observe. According to the laws of permaculture and preserving this planet, they must be treated with respect and love. Any acts of cruelty or intentional loss of life must be considered a crime punishable by law. https://pappsy.com/amid-coronavirus-panic-pet-owners-throw-away-cats-and-dogs-from-highrise-buildings-in-china/?fbclid=IwAR0llXX4q5BsZR7NLiVEhncaMN6_j1G0SYzB8vgAG3bJ8hDOPh_AFWnpARI

This experience is nearly universal: a package arrives at the front door and a buyer goes retrieve it. Opening the cardboard box, taking out the foam boards, bubble wrap, and plastic sheets, ripping open the shrink-wrap are all steps one must take to open an average package to reveal the product. By the same caliber, drinks such as milk tea are usually placed inside large plastic bags that serve no purpose other than being a temporary container. This means that purchasing a simple product weighing in at only a few grams, produces about a kilogram of plastic and foam that become potential pollutants for the environment. The producer wastes materials and money on extra packaging, and on top of all that, the process of disposing of such excessive packaging is certainly not an enjoyable process, and wastes time and effort on the consumer’s side as well. Join us in the effort to reduce plastic waste in the environment, help improve the productivity of firms, and reduce consumer inconvenience. After all, how can we clean the oceans if more plastic flows in afterwards? We hope that major companies selling beverages such as milk tea and coffee to the masses can see, and hopefully change their production methods for the benefit of our society as a whole. 这种情况是非常普遍的：包裹到达前门，买家前去取回包裹。打开纸箱，取出泡沫板，气泡包装纸和塑料片，撕开收缩包装纸，这是打开一个普通包装以获得产品所必须实行的步骤。同样的方式，奶茶之类的饮品通常会放在一个大的塑料袋中，这些塑料袋除了用作临时容器外没有其他用途。通过购买重量仅为几十克的简单产品，可以生产约一千克的塑料和泡沫，成为对环境的潜在污染物。生产者在额外的包装上浪费了更多的材料和金钱，最重要的是，处理这种过度包装的过程并不是不是一个愉快的过程，并且同时也浪费了消费者的时间和精力。加入我们，努力减少环境中的多余塑料浪费，帮助提高公司的生产率，减少消费者的不便。毕竟，如果以后有更多的塑料流入，我们如何清洁海洋？签署这份请愿书，以便使出售食品和饮料的大型公司可以看到，并希望改变其生产方式，从而造福于整个社会。

Despite the administration's attempts to take away protection from threatened grizzly bears, these beautiful creatures are still protected by the Endangered Species Act, and they're not yet fully recovered. They can be — if we continue to protect them and let their population grow.

Currently, Publix Grocery is the only pharmacy in the nation that allows customers to bring back their consumer pharmacy bottles for recycling. With much success, Publix customers returned more than 8.2 million Publix Pharmacy vials for recycling in 2018 alone. CVS Pharmacy is the largest retail pharmacy in the nation and is estimated to serve over five million customers daily. Join me in urging CVS Pharmacy to allow customers to return pharmacy prescription bottles for recycling, and prevent unnecessary waste from entering our landfills.

Failure to enforce this law is seen as encouraging the breaking of the law, empowering those who wish to silence protest, thus making the city and police department culpable in the event of injury or death resulting from aggressive action against those who peacefully assemble. Tell our city officials to enforce the law. Demand they make our gatherings safe for all citizens to attend. A city where parents can safely bring their children to rallies to witness the exercising of their First Amendment Rights, without fear of exposing them to violence or foul language .

The very integrity of the United States and the Presidency are at stake. Our core values are being challenged and wrong is wrong. Period.

In 2016 alone, the world lost an estimated 8 percent of its donkeys. Many were stolen, some were skinned alive, and all were part of a black market trade that fuels the Asian ejiao industry [1]. China saw its own donkey population drop from 11 million in 1990 to around 6 million in 2014 [2]. Now that the demand for donkey meat and ejiao, a medicine believed to improve circulation and ease a number of other health issues, has increased, external sources of donkey products are being considered. China reduced its tariff on donkey skins in late 2017 from 5 percent to 2 percent, making it even easier, and more lucrative, for ejiao manufacturers to get what they need, and placing the future of donkeys around the world in peril [3]. In response, donkeys around the world are now being kidnapped or stolen, and skinned alive to fuel this industry. In Africa, where donkeys are used for transportation, and religious custom often forbids eating donkey meat, donkey thievery is especially damaging both to health and culture. "From Tanzania to Peru, South Africa to Pakistan, donkeys across the world are being stolen and skinned in the night, their carcasses found by distraught owners and their skins imported into China," said Alex Mayers, the Donkey Sanctuary's head of programs [4]. Traders can sell a donkey hide for as much as 3,000 yuan (USD $460) today, whereas the same skin would have sold for a fifteenth of that price in 2000 [5]. “For millions of people in some of the world’s poorest communities, donkeys are still the main means of livelihood and sustain families by providing them with an income and independence," Mayers said [4]. "This latest news from China is sadly a backwards step for donkeys and for communities that rely on them." Uganda, Tanzania, Botswana, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal have banned the export of donkey skin and meat products to China [3]. A growing number of individuals are standing up against those exports, too. [1] Horsetalk (2018, January 4), "Trade in donkey skins continues apace, as China lowers tariff."

The 2018 Farm Bill defined hemp as a legal agricultural product. People who maintain irrational "Reefer Madness" grudges against hemp should not be allowed to impede access to hemp. In other words, people who dislike broccoli can't prevent others from eating it. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp should be no different. Organizations that maintain antiquated hemp prohibitions, such as Colorado State University-Pueblo*, are not only out of compliance with federal law, but also absurdly impede access to hemp’s myriad health benefits. Anyone who wishes to consume hemp to enhance health and nutrition should not be prevented from doing so. Therefore, signatories of this petition call for the immediate termination of all existing bans on hemp across the USA. *Colorado State University-Pueblo, which ironically houses an Institute of Cannabis Research, maintains the following ignorance-inspired prohibition on hemp and/or Cannabis: “The use of marijuana on campus, even with a valid medical marijuana license, is prohibited.”

We will not vote for EVIL, even the lesser of two evils. We will not compromise and settle for pretenders who pale in comparison. This is not a game. This is not a bluff. To nominate anyone else the DNC would repeat the same folly as 2016. In order to defeat Trump, Bernie Sanders is the best option, one that will attract record voting highs full of independents, traditionally non-voters, former centrists and right wingers that have 'seen the light' and #FeelTheBern. In order to successfully make change in healthcare, climate change, tax reform, stopping legal tax evasion, gun reform, prison reform, and stopping the wars the President will need to have unprecedented fortitude and courage to remain noble and stedfast in the face of pressure and attacks by very powerful industries. Bernie Sanders is that candidate. No other candidates satisfy our criteria of not being corrupt in their policy decision making, no other has integrity, no other has determination to follow through with the lip service of their platform, such as true Single-Payer Healthcare in the form of Medicare for All. We will also vote out any opposition in local elections, and support candidates that pledge to support his agenda.
