This petition was created for a school project but because we are so compassionate about our love for animals we think it is much more important for animals to avoid pain than it is to get a good grade.

Whatever the cause of this extinction, humans caused it and humans need to clean it up....and it's not that difficult: • Leave the dinosaurs in the ground, count more than cash crushing life on earth, to stop causing hell on earth… • Harvest free, infinite flows & cycles of nature, 100% Renewable Energy (efficiency & storage) 100% Doable by 2030 (IRENA 2016), by 2050 (100.org 2015)….if we redefine our word “economic” as more than mechanical rates of fossilized cashflow floods crushing life on earth….if the fossil fuel industry and war profiteer industry would stop causing hell on earth and help harvest free infinite flows of free infinite energy for all power all energy needs on earth so we can play instead of suffer…… to share to fill in hungry voids of the negative to lift all up to light instead….obvious or not, counted in cash or not… • Plant, Protect, Grow, Replace the Green Cooling Photosynthesis of Nature that humans have crushed for the last 150 years of fossilized, cash-driven industrialization/urban sprawl…and the last several thousand years of erroneous human assumptions that humans need to crush nature’s productivity to consume…crushing of photosynthetic cooling causing global heating because Heater Cliamte Carbon Heating has become dominant on earth in human worlds and beyond, such as “urban heat islands” o Green cooling photosynthesis simultaneously converts heater climate carbons to cooling o2 + cooling living carbons circulating cooling flows of cooling o2 and also cooling water as h2O as both circulatory within plants and as water transpiration to participate in whole earth cooling of climate, oceans, green watersheds ….. o If humans caused desertification,then humans can reverse desertification with photosynthesis

A Remington Research Group poll in December 2017 found that a large majority of Americans favor banning imports of elephant and lion trophies, 78% to 15%. By political party, 76 percent of Republicans, 84 percent of Democrats, and 75 percent of non-partisan voters favor a ban. President Trump and Secretary Zinke need to listen to the American people!

As a civic action project for our government class, we plan to make community places cleaner. Through other student's studies here at Athens high school, we noticed there was a large amount of plastic bottles littered in our community parks, so, adding recycle and trash bins will benefit the environment and help keep public places clean.

GMO foods are poisoning and killing people. The food in the US is dangerous to eat.This practice has been stopped in other countries. America demands our food is no longer poisoned.

East New Orleans does not want a Power Plant located in their area.

We are starting this petition because throughout the years we have noticed that there are a lot of unnecessary houses that are being built. People should be concerned about this issue because this will cause a huge increase in pollution rates and a huge decrease in the amount of organisms that live in New York.

Paint contains toxic chemicals including Volatile Organic Compounds such as toluene and benzene; metals like lead, silver, mercury, and cadmium; binders and solvents like methylene chloride which affect the ecosystem of beautiful Sausal Creek and the San Francisco Bay. Just 1 gallon of paint can contaminate 1,000,000 gallons of water. The Rock in Marj Saunders Park at 5801 at Ascot Drive in Oakland has been painted continuously since the 1950s, allowing as much as 50 gallons of paint per year to enter our watershed negatively affecting our ecosystem and health. Not only is this an environmental problem, it's ugly and it's illegal. The City should enforce its own laws and protect our ecosystem and public health. I am a 6th-grade student at Bentley School and I live near the rock. Signs actually encourage this behavior! I don't think people should be harming the environment, including our fish and wildlife, on purpose. We should be setting a better example for kids like me and not celebrating pollution. Painting the rock should be stopped, and the area should be restored to its natural beauty and protected from further pollution.

National Geographic is one of the top circulating magazines in the US with around 42 million magazines mailed annually--each and every issue wrapped in plastic. The Polybags used, made of polyethylene #4, is a common plastic, recyclable with grocery bags made of the same or similar (#2) material. But, according to the National Geographic article titled "A Whopping 91% of Plastic Isn't Recycled"-well, you get the gist. This "environmental" magazine has published dozens of articles on the hazards of plastic bags--there is no room for this level of hypocrisy in our country's 8th largest circulating magazine. So let's encourage them to set a precedent and to stop mailing their publication in plastic bags.

We in Massachusetts must do everything we can to protect our coastal waters from oil spills and activities that threaten marine wildlife. The waters and shores and fishing and tourism industries are vital to our economy and our people.
