TransCanada representatives are distributing business cards that display the FFA logo. This implies that FFA supports building the Keystone XL pipeline, which threatens America's agriculture economy and risks the safety of the Ogallala Aquifer, which provides 27% of America's agricultural irrigation water. TransCanada has bullied farmers and ranchers in Nebraska and other states, and their actions are not worthy of the high standards of leadership FFA cultivates in young people. TransCanada's donations to FFA will be used in educational curriculum that will influence the minds of countless young people across the country. TransCanada's sponsorship is a blatant attempt to buy support by exploiting FFA's positive image and reputation in rural communities.

Do you know someone who wants to go solar—but they can’t because they live in an apartment, they rent, or their house is shady? Ever think it would be cool to own a ‘share’ in a community solar array down the street, on a parking lot or maybe on the roof of a local school? Well, the DC Council has introduced a bill that would make that possible! It is called the Community Renewables Act of 2012. The legislation, if its passed would allow anyone who pays an electric bill in DC – to virtually net meter solar output—anywhere in DC-- to their bill. Right now--people who own homes or buildings can install solar--this new law would let anyone in DC go solar! It is only fair!

Electronic Fog Sirens sound 24/7 in many marine areas causing chronic noise disturbance for millions of people. They've been rendered useless by other technologies,are highly inaccurate, and even the coastguard considers them "obsolete". We're calling on President Obama to follow the lead of other nations by retiring these unneeded sirens so that our basic right to live peacefully and get adequate sleep is respected.

If the Canadian tar sand is exploited for oil, together with our continued use of fossil energy, the carbon dioxide level in the air is expected to rise to a degree, compatible with levels 2.5 mill years ago, when the sea level was 50 feet higher that it is today. This outlook does qualify for a crisis for our grandchildren's survival and bodes very badly for our immediate future. We must urgently address our energy policies.

Global climate change and what it will do to our grandchildren and all mankind.

We need pollution free and waste free clean energy like the Wind Turbines Cleveland, Ohio was promised offshore Lake Erie! Plus we need the ten's of thousand of jobs they will create in our area manufacturing, delivering, building and maintaining them as well!

Hemp oil and fiber could solve our economy. We need freedom to farm.

Adena Springs Ranch wants 13+ million gallons/day of water to irrigate 10,000 acres of pasture to feed 30,000 cows. That’s more water usage than the entire City of Ocala! Right out of the aquifer that feeds iconic Silver Springs that is already suffering a 50% reduction in average flow—this project will reduce it even more. Manure and urine will pollute drinking water supplies and runoff will end up in Silver Springs and the Silver and Ocklawaha Rivers, both designated Outstanding Florida Waterways. In a presentation to the Alachua County commission, Robert Knight, the founder and director of the H.T. Odum Florida Springs Institute, a Gainesville-based nonprofit organization, said the springs that feed into the Santa Fe River, including Poe and Ginnie springs, have drained at much steeper rates than the decrease in rainfall would warrant. That, Knight said, meant the culprit was human pumping. Voice your opposition to the super consumption request and help protect our drinking water, springs and rivers!

We need to ban Hydo Fracking our land for gasoline using known carcinogens that pollute not just our great lakes, but also drain and poison our many inland lakes. Hydo fracking has already proven in other states to cause serious damage to drinking water, human health, livestock and wildlife, freshwater aquifers, rivers, and air quality.

Action is needed to protect American families from toxic chemicals. Early puberty, childhood cancer, infertility, and learning and developmental disabilities are rising at alarming rates. Studies show links between toxic chemicals we’re exposed to every day and many of these negative health trends. Almost all pregnant women in America contain toxic chemicals in their bodies. The laws on the books do not protect the health of our kids and families. This is unacceptable. Tell Congress to Act Now.

On Saturday, March 17, 2012 PA Representative Brian Ellis, sponsor of Act 13, publicly announced that he had brokered a deal with Wal-Mart to donate 2,000 gallons of water to the families whose well water went bad since natural gas drilling began in their rural community. Although 2,000 gallons will not last long, the community struggles to make due on a daily basis and depends on each and every gallon. Despite repeated phone calls from community members they are yet to see a single gallon of what was promised them.
