NO to chemical industry insider Michael Dourson leading EPA toxics office!Clean and safe water is a human right. Full stop. Michael Dourson has spent his career helping companies like Dupont shirk responsibility for contaminating groundwater with dangerous chemicals known to harm kids and families. How does he make sense working at the very office charged with protecting us? He doesn't. The Senate could vote on Dourson any day. Let’s make sure our voices are heard loud and clear. Our health, our families and our water are NOT for sale to the chemical industry. Join us in telling the Senate NO to Michael Dourson.343 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Karen, MomsRising.org

Save Elephants and Lions - Stop Trump’s Trophy Hunting Plan“When a species' greatest value is as a dead trophy, its days will inevitably be numbered, just as they are when the value of their parts -- like ivory tusks, tiger skins, or rhino horn -- make protection from poachers nearly impossible."322 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Z.

Save The Elelphants even if Trump Won'tOne of the most beautiful creatures in the world is the elephant. Nothing in the world like these majestic giants. Horrifically our president signed legislation just today allowing ivory imported into to our country agan, reversing important legislation to protect the dwindling numbers of elephants. I don't know about you but I don't want my kid saying to me one day., "Daddy what did elephants look like, and how did they make that trumpet noise and shoot water out of their trunk?" This is not something that can wait until another day. Elephants could be no more if we do not stand up and fight Trump now for allowing ivory in our country again. His actions benefit no one but his trophy hunting son. Elephants are near extinction already. Lifting the band on ivory will only multiply the slaughter of elephants. This goes beyond politics. Extinction is forever and that day should never come for elephants. This must be stopped now. Tell Washington to keep ivory out of our country forever.97 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Billy Park

Tell Kate Brown to Speak Out Against Jordan Cove Now!Governor Brown's reelection website says she is "Oregon's Progressive Champion" and "She is standing up to anyone who would take our rights away, threaten our access to affordable health care, or pollute our air and water" yet she refuses to oppose the Jordan Cove Fracked Gas Pipeline. This proposed pipeline and export terminal would become one of the largest polluters in Oregon, use eminent domain to take property rights from private land owners so a Canadian company could sell cheap fracked gas to Asian markets, disturb Native American territories and burial grounds, endanger 400 waterways, estuaries, and salmon habitat. And that's the best case scenario; if there are accidents or mishaps which are the rule not the exception with pipelines, the damage could be catastrophic. The Democratic Party of Oregon's platform already says it is a legislative priority to keep this fracked gas pipeline from being built, yet our Democratic governor refuses to stand with her Party on this issue. Governor Brown, will you stand up for the rights of Native Americans and the health of our environment for current and future generations?

Recycling Cans Outside of FSU LawA plastic bottle can take 450 years to decompose. If it is sent to a recycling plant, it can be downcycled into something new. Aluminum cans can take 200 years to break down. Glass bottles have an undetermined amount of time. Both are infinitely recyclable if sent to a recycling plant. Yet, everyday these items appear in the landfill bins outside of FSU Law! Sign the petition to add recycling bins outside of FSU Law, around the patio, and around the green!62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laurel Tallent

Don't let House Republicans "invalidate" the Endangered Species ActDemocrats and conservationists say the bills introduced by Rep. Rob Bishop would whittle away the Endangered Species Act's ability to save wildlife from extinction. Unlike previous GOP attempts to weaken the Endangered Species Act, Bishop is poised to realize his ambition because of Republicans' control of both chambers of Congress and the White House. A Senate committee that previously held hearings on modernizing the Act is preparing companion legislation, and a president who favors oil-and-gas development on federal land is more likely to sign it into law.542 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Gary Hill

Support Renewable Energy Jobs in North CarolinaI am a concerned citizen that advocates for a better North Carolina. It is up to everyday citizens to fight the effects of climate change. Changing the way we produce and consume energy would go along way to stopping global climate change. I am creating this petition to demand the NC General Assembly to take action on a state level to encourage renewable energy while also creating a new high wage industry in North Carolina.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Logan Rains

STAND UP FOR CLEAN WATER IN WVAs one of the participants in the Federal 401 Lawsuit against WV DEP that demanded that WV DEP do its job and protect WV Citizens and it's Water Resources, I am more than appalled at the actions of WV DEP Chief Austin Caperton and WV DEP in reinstating the Stormwater Permit without adequate review for the MVP and by giving up their authority to protect our waters through the 401 water quality permit for both the MVP and the ACP. This is far and beyond the MVP or ACP or any pipeline, This is about whether West Virginians deserve Clean Water. You either stand up for clean water or you do not. I demand that Austin Caperton either resign or that Governor Justice fire him ASAP for his total disregard to WV citizens. I implore you to join me in that effort. WV DEP has some really great employees that are truly concerned about the environment, but the leadership needs to change and allow them to do their jobs. I call on all our lawmakers to publicly stand up for WV Citizen's right to clean water and a clean environment. Anyone that does not take this stand needs to be removed from office by the citizens of our state. Sincerely, Maury Johnson Greenville, Monroe County424 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Maury Johnson
