Tell the Army Corps: Reject Pebble Mine!Pebble Mine would be disastrous for both Bristol Bay and the communities its waters support. The mine would pollute the water and air and could even wipe out the wild salmon population that is central to the local economy. But instead of considering those impacts fully, the Army Corps is trying to rush through the permitting process. We can’t let that happen.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Tell Congress: Vote NO on rolling back critical environmental laws!Congress is close to voting on the Farm Bill -- a massive piece of legislation that sets priorities across our entire food and agricultural system.

Tell your Senators: Don’t make it easier for pesticide companies to poison our food system!Bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides. Monsanto’s monarch-harming Roundup®. Dow’s Agent Orange pesticide. All these toxic chemicals and more could soon find their way into organic agriculture -- if some members of the Senate get their way. They’re trying to sneak this attack into the Farm Bill -- a massive piece of legislation that touches every aspect of our food system. Your Senators can stop this attack on organic agriculture in its tracks. But they need to hear from you today!3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Tell Congress to reject the new Farm Bill and stop Big Ag from destroying our food system!Last month, Republicans in Congress unveiled their Farm Bill. This bill would be a disaster for our food system. It would harm our environment and public health. And it would allow pesticide companies to keep poisoning bees and butterflies. This bill is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Ag. We need your help to push your Representative to reject it!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

South Boston: More Public Trash CansRecently a construction site nearby added a trash can in front of a porta potty they set up on the street. The trash can is constantly full and it shows the need for public trash cans to be located across the neighborhood not just on the main streets like Broadway and Columbia Road/Day Blvd.195 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Heather Ward

Thundercloud Subs: Stop using polystyrene cupsI love Thundercloud Subs, but am disappointed by their use of polystyrene cups. Plastic pollution is a growing problem, responsible for country-sized swirling gyres of plastic waste in our oceans and growing landfills in our country’s interior. This pollution is damaging our ecosystems and endangering public health. This pollution is damaging our ecosystems and endangering public health. Polystyrene foam, commonly referred to as Styrofoam, is among the worst forms of plastic pollution. Like all plastics, it does not biodegrade but breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, which means every bit of polystyrene ever made is still out there.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Luke Metzger

Make the Town of Hickory Creek Beautiful AgainWe understand the first amendment and respect one's right to express their opinion. With that stated, recently an absurd number of negative signage has littered the landscape of our town (mini billboards). It is our hope that a city ordinance limiting the size and scope of signage can be put in place to prevent this from getting out of control in the future.88 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Akerblom

Ban Single Use Plastic Bags In ColoradoColorado should be leading the pack, working towards stopping environmental degradation. Banning plastic bags is a good start. The United States uses about 12 million barrels of oil in plastic bags each year. This endangers our fragile climate and our national security. These bags ultimately wind up as wasted space in our landfills at best, and as pollution in our wildlands at worst -- choking Rocky Mountain wildlife, clogging the Arkansas and Colorado Rivers, and filling up the Pacific garbage patch. I voted for the ban on plastic bags in California when I lived there. As a proud Colorado resident, I believe it is time for Colorado to also do the responsible thing! To do what the scientific evidence deems necessary. Ban plastic bags! Stop the unwarranted use of fossil petroleum. Protect our environment! Keep Colorado Beautiful and help keep more plastic from going into our oceans... Semper Fi Isaac”IKE”McCorkle Combat Wounded USMC RETIRED242 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Isaac Mccorkle
