Make 75% Pure Salvage Built Housing Tax FreeI want your help in building housing for the new society of 76,000,000 downsizing baby boomers out of 100% American grown trees, 100% American Mined ore, with hardware, doors, windows, and everything else made by our forefathers, salvaged from our treasure troves of natural resources, with the human energy of people doing the work who all happen to live in America. Let us abandon subsidizing the global corporations and foreign countries and let people build Tiny Houses from Salvage materials that should never be taxed for the rest of the time they are in service as a home rather than being in the landfill. Change the zoning laws to accomodate downsizing and sharing our ground with others who want to downsize instead of restricting land use through zoning that prohibits the movement toward saving our country and planet by reducing our carbon footprint, our taking from the planet.164 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Brad kittel

A World Free of Military and Military WeaponsThe greatest obstacle to environmental progress and a humane society is the fact that over half of human financial resources are spent to maintain military organizations and their weapons and, worse, their wars. If no nation has a military then no nation needs a military. That money can be spent on a better world for all. world instead of death and destruction.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ken Cohen

Stop Agent Orange-resistant cornDow Chemical used to manufacture Agent Orange, an herbicide and defoliant, for use in the Vietnam War. The nation of Vietnam estimates that 400,000 people were sickened by this long-lasting chemical, while 500,000 children with birth defects were born to exposed parents. Now, Dow is asking the USDA to approve genetically modified corn that's resistant to Agent Orange. What's worse, this corn is being offered to replace corn resistant to pesticides like RoundUp. Intense RoundUp use has created superweeds that RoundUp can't kill. So now they need something different to spray on the crops, at least for a while, and they want to try making the food we eat resistant to Agent Orange, which seems like a terrible, goddamn idea.31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ellen E.
