• Legalization of Industrial Hemp Cultivation
    Hemp is one of the most useful plants on Earth. For thousands of years, humans have used parts of the hemp plant for food, textiles, paper, fabric, and fuel oil. Today, modern processing technologies have made it possible to create alternatives to gasoline, plastic, and other petroleum products that can help the human race lessen its reliance on polluting and expensive fossil fuels. http://www.informationdistillery.com/hemp.htm

  • Nuclear Wasted
    Congress and the President have authorized spending 8 billion dollars to finance 2 new Nuclear Power plants in Georgia at a time when there is very little regulation from the NRC or the DOE as to how or where to contain the waste from the back end of Nuclear power generation. Additionally as Fukishima has lethally demonstrated the effects of an accident can be deadly and last for generations. Furthermore, the mining and milling of Uranium is dangerous at all stages.

  • Tell the National Restaurant Association to stop using styrofoam containers for carry-out orders.
    Styrofoam has a 2,000 year half-life. It is extremely toxic. It's unnecessary - just cheap. It can't be burned without polluting the air and can't be buried without polluting the ground. Many people take their food home and microwave it while still in styrofoam containers, creating the potential for released toxins going into their bodies.

  • Ethanol in gasoline is bad for the economy and ecology.
    Ethanol added to gas has not lead to a cleaner future, instead it has lead to a higher profit for oil companies. When the EPA forced gas companies to add ethanol, the gas you purchase has reduced your MPG. The EPA's theory that adding ethanol will reduce driving by 10% due to higher prices has not worked. Instead, it has lead to record profits for oil companies because people drive the same distance as before, it just costs 10% more.

  • Plastic Ban
    Plastic is everywhere and globally we use more than 260 million tons of plastic each year. 60 to 80% of total marine debris is plastic. The plastic goes into our oceans and animals like fish and turtles eat the plastic. They then unfortunately die because it is not biodegradable. Plastics don't only hurt the sea animals, but they hurt our environment.

  • No Genetically Engineered Food or Fish
    Say no to genetically modified seeds, and fish eggs, and fish. There are problems with this type of farming. And so labels should apply to all GMO Products, just like irradiation warnings apply to all vegetables and fruits and nuts and grains etc etc England and other countries are making it illegal to work with GMO foods, and so should we.

  • We the Citizens OPPOSE HB1950! Repeal it NOW!
    Pennsylvania's state legislature (and now Governor Corbett) has effectively signed a death warrant for some number of residents, who knows how many. Corbett’s just made it official. Pennsylvanians: Fight back — or suffer the consequences. The fracking industry has written a bill that gives itself legal permission to poison Pennsylvanians-and keeps doctors who treat them once they’re poisoned from telling anyone else what poisoned them. The bill also essentially permits all gas drilling and processing activities anywhere, including in residential areas. -Maura Stephens For more info, PLEASE READ: http://www.truth-out.org/fracking-industry-colludes-pennsylvania-legislature-dangerous-new-laws-head-governors-desk/132923015
