  • RIDE BACK: A Petition to Make NYC More Bike-Friendly
    Bicycling is considered to be a major mode of transportation by many in New York City. Yet, the local government has failed to keep cyclists safe and continues to equate bikes with motor vehicles. We believe it is the best interest not only of cyclists but of drivers and the city itself to advocate for more protected bicycle lanes as well as stricter laws regarding bicycle-related accidents.

  • Mandatory fee's for unwanted public sewer system
    The public sewer dept. used lies and miss information to borrow 34 mil to expand their system to 1670 residences and destroy there working septic tanks. Their system is failing and dumping raw or poorly treated sewage into a creek. We are being forced to pay a high monthly fee if we hook up to the system or not. If one hooks up to the system they will be adding more pharmaceuticals to the drinking water that is already affecting fish and the human race.

  • Save the Northside Community Garden
    We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge our leaders to act now to save the community garden that volunteers from the Saint Louis community have been growing for months. We have just celebrated our three month anniversary of creating a garden of flowers, organic vegetables, and other plants for the community on the corner of Red Bud and Carter in Saint Louis, Missouri. This lot remained vacant for at least 20 years and now is finally being used to benefit all people with free fresh vegetables for everyone in the community. The children of the community have been tending to the garden and learning valuable lessons about agriculture and farming, as well as how to take care of the environment. Unfortunately, we are now learning that there are plans to turn the space into a parking lot for a nearby facility. We are taking a pro-active stance in case something happens to the garden that has become a place of family gatherings, community cook-outs, and a place of peace for everyone who lives here. We urge you to donate the land to the community as a show of good faith, so that we can all continue to benefit from the Northside Community Garden as well as future gardens to come.

  • East Lyme Town Council: Save Niantic Estuary Now!
    The East Lyme Town Council is giving the green light to developersto build condos on the hills along the Niantic River. The problem? The levels of non-point source pollution is rising every year in the water and this development will decrease the beauty of this pristine waterway and only further contaminant the water. I'm calling on Southeastern Shoreline residents and those along the river to STOP the town council from giving away this land to developers!

  • Reverse Global Warming
    According to Bill McKibben in th Rolling Stone article: "Global Warming's Terrifying New Math, we have five times as much coal and gas on the books as climate scientists think is safe to burn. We need a tax on carbon emissions. That would create the incentive to invest in clean energy.

  • Lets minimize second hand smoking. Please stop smoking while walking!
    It's mainly about my concern with avoiding potential health issues that are caused by the smoke inhaled from second hand smoke. People that smoke have decided against their own risks of health problems to smoke, unlike the non smoking population. We are subjected to inhale the smoke that smokers let put at almost every turning corner of the city. I just want the same freedom and ability to choose. I choose to be smoke free. I know that people are their own person and make their own decisions, but when those decisions affect more than just one individual it is viewed as a problem. There are babies (children) that are constantly subjected to this. Smokers should have their freedom to smoke, but in their own home or in a designated area where other smokers are. Walking along in the street with a cigarette on hand should not be allowed at all. It will help with the pollution as well. I'm not a public figure, just a concerned mother. I see how many people die each year just from issues brought on by the effects of second hand smoke inhalation. Did they have a choice? If this law is to be passed it will minimize the number of death from second hand smoke inhalation, and In turn help with the healthcare issues that these conditions cause by bringing the number of hospitalizations down due to this very problem. My community has a lot of smokers, and i choose to stand up for what is right, and we deserve to have clean air to breath as we commute to work, school, and any other place we decide to go without being subjected to endure these conditions. Bad enough we have other issues to worry about with our community and our children; this would help all those that choose to not smoke stay healthier. Thank you for taking the time out to read my petition. i hope you can sign it and support this cause.

  • Kill Carpool and Toll Lanes in California
    Nothing wastes more gas than carpool lanes. Anyone on a crowded freeway can see that 1000 cars crawling bumper to bumper in three lanes and one lane with hardly anyone using it is NOT an efficient way to use the lanes. We pay more in sales tax than any other state and we are third in fuel taxes. How is it fair that the newest lanes on our most crowded freeways are being made into toll lanes? So the richest of us can skip past traffic. Let's stop it now!
