• Governor Sean Parnell's proposal to give more tax breaks to the oil industry
    This a totally insane power grab to create a vertically integrated gas-monopoly with no opportunity for regulatory oversight and operating in secrecy under HB189 blanket confidentiality clause.

  • Democratize Energy in Vermont
    This petition is in support of smaller community owned and based wind and solar electrical generation, as opposed to large industrial corporate owned wind and solar electrical generation. If you favor retrofitting existing structures with solar and wind generation rather than altering ridge lines, animal habitat, water systems and more with large industrial solar and wind, this petition is for you.

  • Save our water from fracking
    AB 591 is a California bill that will require gas and oil companies to notify agencies & nearby residents of potential environmental hazards during the fracking process. Fracking has been linked to climate changing methane emissions and water contamination from chemicals and natural gas but is not required to adhere to the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1986. This bill is currently held up in the California Senate Appropriations Committee. Please e-mail your State senator to sign this bill into law and encourage others to do the same.

  • Protect Wildlife Health In Colorado
    We need to protect the natural movement, daily and seasonal, of wildlife in the US, by removing unneeded fencing, and altering fencing that is unfriendly for wildlife movement on public lands and give incentives to do so on private lands. We also need to make corridors over and under roads so that motorists are safer as well. This can create jobs in rural America, bring tourism to many areas, and increase the health of heard populations, which can increase hunting licences, and bring more tourism dollars.

  • Twenty-year investigation of the harmful effects of diesel exhaust still unpublished.
    Publication of a landmark government study probing whether diesel engine exhaust causes lung cancer in miners β€” already 20 years in the making β€” has been delayed by industry and congressional insistence on seeing study data and documents before the public does. Particles emitted in diesel exhaust are ultrafine β€” "smaller than a virus." These diesel particles, coated with toxic chemicals and metals, can penetrate cells and cause cancer and other diseases.

  • Electric Vehicles are the answer.
    It's just a matter of time before big oil will take all your money. Lets face it EV's are the answer. Our enonomy is hurting because of gas prices and we can do something about it. EV's are being made today with a range of 300 miles and they will get better. It's time to get our politicians out of the pockets of big oil and get Obama to offer the big three auto makers more incentives to produce lower priced EV's. The air you breath will be cleaner and the Oil Co's will hate you for buying an EV.

  • Minnesota State Leaders Support Solar on Our Schools!
    Minnesota currently spends more than $20 billion a year importing polluting energy from other states and nations. There is no need for us to be sending all those dollars out of state when Minnesota has a vast, untapped solar resource. In fact, Minnesota ranks in the top ten for solar energy generation potential, and it’s time to take advantage!

  • Power to the People
    Missouri's proposed renewable energy standard provides a chance to bring clean energy jobs to missouri, control rate hikes from utilities, and keep money in the state that is currently sent to Wyoming for coal. By 2025, Missouri investor owned utilities would be required to have 25% of their energy come from clean, renewable sources like solar, wind, and hydropower. Other states have set identical or similar goals and are well on the way to meeting them, so can we. But to do it, we need the help of volunteers gathering signatures to put this initiative on the ballot.

  • Everybody Needs Safe Water
    Illinois has many watersheds that are not safe for drinking. There are very few inspectors to keep track of all of the water supplies and unfortunately, they often do not follow through with giving citations to communities that are in clear violation of EPA drinking standards and are not aggressive enough about expecting those in violation to make necessary changes to ensure safe drinking water. Contaminants such as vinyl chloride from nearby landfills, dangerous levels of nitrates, water not treated for bacteria, and nuclear plants leaking radiation into groundwater are examples of what people unknowingly drink everyday. Please regulate the water supply appropriately and expect water inspectors to issue citations as needed and not turn a blind eye to them, our health depends on it, as water is a basic human necessity! Please make budget cuts someplace else that does not effect the health and safety of Illinois residents any further!
