Burning is optional with other alternatives to leaf disposal, breathing is not. Please sign IF you live within Morrison city limits and share on your page if you support a Leaf Burning Ban.

  • Amazon reuse your cardboard boxes
    We need to conserve resources (ie forests) and energy. Boxes used only 1 time, then recycled or thrown out, wastes resources, energy or adds to landfills. Carboard boxes should be used multiple times. With the ever increasing use of delivered goods, mainly by Amazon, carboard use is increasing. We need to reuse resources. Amazon should start a cardboard box reuse program, which could set an example for other on line services.

  • Young Voices in Climate Change
    I'm Zepplyn Berry, I'm 11 years old. I am sick and tired of no one caring about my future. Instead, they destroy it by spending money on stupid things that are killing the environment and the Earth. Climate Change is real, it's not something you can dismiss like other problems. This is for everyone and anyone who needs this to change NOW. Parents? Ask your kids, how do they feel about this? If they agree, please have them sign here. This doesn't affect me now. But it will when I decide I want to grow up and can't because I know that the generations before me have destroyed the world. Climate Change is a REAL thing. It's not going away, so don't treat it like it is. But it can go away if we decide to do something. y signing my petition, you are making a promise, to do something. Plant a tree, donate to an organization, look up environmentally friendly alternatives to things in your life. And for those of you who think this is beyond repair? We are not, because it is people like you who can make a change. All you have to do is start. That is the hardest part. After that it's easy. So help me and help your world.

  • Speaker Turzai: A Climate Denier Has No Place Chairing the Environment Committee
    Daryl Metcalfe is an outrageous PA legislator whose over-the-top behavior finally forced the House GOP leadership to remove him as chair of the powerful State Government Committee. So what did they do with him? They made him chair of the Environmental Resources and Energy Committee. This petition is a companion to the letter we are submitting to Speaker Turzai calling on him to remove Metcalfe from his seat as Chair and from any seat on the committee. Here is the letter in full: Speaker Turzai, We, the undersigned, call on you to remove Representative Daryl Metcalfe from his seat as chair of the Environmental Resources and Energy Committee and from any seat on that committee. We have little time left to address the climate crisis. Representative Metcalfe’s record of unabashed climate denial, obstructionism, and unprofessional behavior makes him a wholly inappropriate person to chair or even serve on the committee that should be leading the efforts in the House to address the most important issue of our time. Representative Metcalfe’s views on climate change have been well documented over the past decade. Here is his reaction in 2009 to Operation Free. "As a veteran, I believe that any veteran lending their name, to promote the leftist propaganda of global warming and climate change, in an effort to control more of the wealth created in our economy, through cap and tax type policies, all in the name of national security, is a traitor to the oath he or she took to defend the Constitution of our great nation!" Mr. Metcalfe's email reads. "Remember Benedict Arnold before giving credibility to a veteran who uses their service as a means to promote a leftist agenda. Drill Baby Drill!!!" (Post-Gazette, October 20, 2009) In February of this year, soon after you made him chair of the committee, he said the following and posted it on his Facebook page, “Just to be on record, I enjoy my vegetables, and plants need CO2, so I want to make sure we have plenty of CO2 out there so we have green grass and green vegetables growing... We need CO2, we can’t eliminate all CO2. We are going to have an interesting debate for those that want to reduce something that is actually needed by our environment. And claiming that they are improving the environment.” (Representative Metcalfe’s Facebook page, February 2019) In fact, Metcalfe has used his Facebook page and the Metcalfe Minute videos he posts there to expound on his views of climate change more than once,” In reality, the very real threat to responsible environmental stewardship and effective energy management comes from radical Progressives who are generating fake fear (a.k.a. "man-made" climate change) to take more money from the people who actually work for it!” (Representative Metcalfe’s Facebook page, September 2019) Here’s a post from August, “Climate change? Of course it does! Although, it is not and does not threaten the existence of life as we know it! The leftist, big government, we know better than you, nanny state, tyrant types are spreading their lies to instill fear amongst the masses in hopes of mobilizing some of them in their effort to rob us of our wealth and liberty! They would tax the oxygen we breathe if they thought they could get away with it, but have settled on attempting to tax CO2. Let’s stand together and fight for TRUTH to dispel the error!” (Representative Metcalfe’s Facebook page, August 2019) His rhetoric and behavior were no different in the three-hour hearing he held on October 28th wherein he shared similarly ignorant views, shushed and threatened to remove an invited University of Pennsylvania climate scientist who countered one of the climate deniers also invited to testify, interrupted Democratic committee members when they tried to ask questions, and reached over and shut off Representative Greg Vitali’s microphone when he disagreed with something he was saying. It is your responsibility to make sure the representatives you assign to chair and sit on committees are up to the task. Clearly, Representative Metcalfe is not. We call on you to use your authority as the leader of the House GOP to remove Representative Metcalfe from the Environmental Resources and Energy Committee in consequence of his false and dangerous beliefs and inappropriate actions and replace him with someone who acknowledges the crisis we face and is prepared to act accordingly.

  • Protect Apache holy site from Resolution Copper
    My name is Wendsler Nosie Sr. I'm the former chairman of the San Carlos Apache Tribe and a member of Apache-Stronghold. Five years ago, powerful politicians knelt at the altar of greed and arranged permits for Resolution Copper, a multinational corporation, to drill and extract copper beneath sacred holy lands of the Apache. For thousands of years, Apaches have come to Oak Flats to pray. Today, we face the possibility that our holy ground will become a giant crater. We condemn the immoral, racist, and unconstitutional seizure and sale of Oak Flat. Oak Flat is one of the most holy places in the Apache religious tradition, likened to how Christians and Jews regard Mt. Sinai. Resolution Copper's plan would create a crater below Oak Flat two miles wide and 1,000 feet deep. The U.S. Forest Service has moved forward with an environmental impact statement and has refused to consider the Apaches' religious freedom claim, which would stop this destructive mining project. They have declared war on our religion. And a threat to the practice of any religious tradition in the United States is a threat to U.S. Constitution and the religious liberty of all people of faith. The forces that seek to exploit Apache holy land for profit are the same forces that pass racist voter suppression laws, militarize our borders, deny health care to millions, poison our water, and pretend to promote a "pro-life" agenda. This is why we call for a moral revolution of values with the Poor People's Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival. We denounce this sinful and unconstitutional seizure and sale of Oak Flat.

  • Say no to toxins in your to-go cup!
    Cumberland Farms needs to stop serving coffee in foam cups. We all know how detrimental this product is to the environment and to the human body as well. It's unfathomable that in 2019 Cumby's is still exclusively using these toxic, polluting single-use cups, especially when their competitors have switched to more eco- and bio- friendly options. Their customers deserve better, as does the environment. From HealthBeckon.com -- "The ‘styrene’ present in Styrofoam cups and other such containers has the ability to percolate the food or beverages carried in them. The foods can be anything, ranging from hot or cold drinks, snacks, alcohols to acidic eatables. Styrene is a suspected carcinogen and neurotoxin. It carries a host of other adverse health effects like: Irritation and mucous secretion from eyes and nose. Increased levels of fatigue and decreased concentration ability. Increased levels of abnormal pulmonary function and cancer. Disrupts normal hormone functions resulting in thyroid problems and other hormone related problems. Styrene has unpleasant effects on the environment too. And the most unpleasant of those is the fact that styrene takes about 500 years to decompose. Much of the food packaging we eat from today might be disposable, but not decomposable; at-least not for another half a millennium. When polystyrene waste meanders down the drains and waterways to merge with the big seas and oceans, it carries the prospect of killing the marine life. On the other hand, the mere process of polystyrene manufacturing pollutes the air to a very large extent." Sign and share this petition asking Cumberland Farms to switch to a hot beverage containers that won't poison its' customers and OUR earth.
