• Recycling Bins In Birmingham
    Having visited other major cities in the UK I have noticed a number of multi-use bins which provide separate containers for different types of waste that would reduce the amount of waste Birmingham has to send to landfill and would dramatically increase the amount of recycling.

  • STOP PLAN TO ALLOW KILLING OF GOLDEN EAGLES
    The federal government is proposing to grant a first-of-its-kind permit that would allow the developer of a central Oregon wind-power project to legally kill golden eagles. Don't allow the greed of big business to legalize the death of these magnificent national treasures.

  • Repeal the Halliburton Loophole
    Among the many dubious provisions in the 2005 energy bill was one dubbed the Halliburton loophole, which was inserted at the behest of then-Vice President Dick Cheney, a former chief executive of Halliburton. It stripped the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of its authority to regulate a drilling process called hydraulic fracturing. Invented by Halliburton in the 1940s, it involves injecting a mixture of water, sand, and chemicals, some of them toxic, into underground rock formations to blast them open and release natural gas.

  • Support Our Clean Water Policies
    In April, the Obama Administration said that clean water is the foundation for healthy communities and a healthy environment. I agree completely, and urge you to make sure that the clean water policies being proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Army Corps of Engineers move forward.

  • Remove tax bias against public transportation
    Unless Congress acts to reinstate the pretax benefits, there will be a bias in favor of automobile commuting, with public transit commuters only able to set aside $125 a month, and auto commuters allowed up to $240 a month. This subsidizes the more polluting automobile over the cleaner and more energy efficient use of buses, trains and automobiles.

  • Stop the XL Pipeline. Let Canada Export It's Own Oil
    The XL Pipeline terminates at Port Arthur Texas. Port Arthur is an export port. Valero, one of the backers of the pipeline, intends to export the refined oil in the form of diesel to Europe and Asia. Trans Canada has already testified that if the product can't be exported the refineries will back out of the deal. Why do we risk our land, our air and get nothing? Tell Congress we aren't stupid. Sign now! We have very little time left!
