• STOP PRIVATIZATION OF WATER
    My petition is to heighten the awareness of the problems of Water privatization and the need to act stop and or prevent it before whole communities are being displace as is happening in other parts of the world. It is important to sign this petition because most Americans cannot afford to buy their water from large corporations. In other parts of the world whole communities have been deprived of their own natural water resource, being told that privatization of water is a cleaner, more efficient method of delivery. Unfortunately, this is often not the case, while the Corporations co-opt their water resources.

  • Label BioSolids' Products
    BioSolids, a term created by the waste management industry to disguise the negative connotations of "sewage," can be sold as fertilizer without listing ingredients. These products can even be described as "Natural." Many people remain in the dark about the potential threats to their health that BioSolid Products can produce. In the least, they should be aware that sewage is an ingredient in the fertilizer that they are using in their home garden.

  • Stop Sending Out Obnoxious & Offensive Videos
    While I fully support the campaign to get KFC to stop using rainforest products in their packaging, I find the video created and distributed by SignOn.org to be offensive and obnoxious. It will do more to HURT this campaign than to help it. Convince SignOn.org to STOP SENDING THIS VIDEO AND RETRACT IT IMMEDIATELY.

  • Support Educate - Cold Fusion/LENR
    Political support would have been crucial two decades ago in developing the basic science of cold fusion energy by procuring funding for a coordinated plan of research. It is essential as these products reach commercialization this year.

  • END THE ATTACK ON U.S. WILDERNESS AND THE 1964 WILDERNESS ACT: KILL HR 4089.
    On April 17, 2012, the U.S. House of Representatives passed HR 4089, the Sportsmen's Heritage Act, supposedly to protect and enhance opportunities for recreational hunting, fishing, and shooting. This bill is a thinly disguised measure to gut the 1964 Wilderness Act and protections for every acre of the National Wilderness Preservation System. Supported by the National Rifle Association, the bill would allow the dismemberment of wilderness through road, dam and building construction, as well as extensive habitat modifications. We are petitioning Senate Majority Leader Reid who can prevent this destructive legislation from going any further. This petition is in partnership with The REWILDING INSTITUTE. http://rewilding.org/rewildit/

  • The Copper Smelter will continue to pollute water supply for decades
    This petition is about a former company here in El Paso Texas. The copper smelter shut down filed for bankruptcy and left a mess. The courts awarded $52 million dollars for this location and two others, Corpus Cristi, Tx and parts of Amarillio a refinery still in operations so through the courts they financed their own company.. The smelter, however, is in the worst condition. The smelter was caught incinerating nerve gases. The EPA documents stated it as a shame because there was no copper ore contents in the loads being brought in and contained nerve gases.

  • Truth for the Environment
    Much has been made of the harmful effects of carbon dioxide upon Earth's environment - global warming a.k.a. "climate change." In fact, CO2 is a life-giving gas which should never be thought of as a pollutant. The supposition is that carbon dioxide warms the world, but that is not true. Even if it were true, the premise behind this way of thinking is that a warmer world would be a bad thing, and that isn't true, either.

  • Use American Natural Gas, Not Arab Oil
    Since the Oil Embargo of the 1970's I have listened to members of Congress lament the fact that the use of FOREIGN OIL was America's only hope to remain a modern, industrialized nation. That is not the case today due to America's abundance of natural gas. A program to encourage immediate use of this resource will create American JOBS, JOBS, JOBS, save American lives now being spent keeping the shipping lanes open for FOREIGN OIL and provide a huge assist in balancing our national budget.

  • Take away the proposed recycling charge
    York County VA Board of Supervisor announced that they are levying a charge on those who recycle each week. How can the County NOT be making money when we sort and present this marketable materiel to them at no charge? Is recycling not a worthwhile venture to be supporting in this time and place?
