Connecticut must lead on climate and clean energyFor the first time in five years, Connecticut voters like you have the opportunity to weigh in on Connecticut's comprehensive energy strategy. With America facing more devastating impacts of climate change, it's time to call for a clean energy future that serves our economy, our families' health, and our climate. Governor Malloy's draft Comprehensive Energy Strategy (CES) lacks commitment and misses the mark on building a bright energy system. Public comments close Sept. 25. Sign now to let Governor Malloy and his staff know that you're ready for Connecticut to go big on clean energy. In a recent poll, more than 3 in 4 Connecticut voters said they support expanding the use of solar energy. Across all demographics and party lines, supermajorities of Nutmeggers support transitioning to a clean energy system that benefits public health, reduces electric bills, and spurs a clean economy that creates jobs and local investments. The CES can be improved to deliver on that promise - one that the vast majority of Connecticut families and businesses believe in.74 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sean Garren

Attorney General Sessions: Stop the Hunt for Baby Lily!FBI agents are raiding animal sanctuaries with search warrants in a search for a baby pig rescued from a factory farm. This is not just deeply immoral - we have a duty to help animals who are being abused - but an incredible waste of government resources, in a time that our nation is in crisis due to natural disasters. We're asking Attorney General Sessions to instruct the Utah US Attorney and FBI offices to stop the harassment of animal rescuers, call off the hunt for Lily, and prosecute animal abusing corporations!1,190 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Wayne Hsiung

Sign the Petition: Dump Trump’s New Toxics ChiefTrump’s latest appointee, Michael Dourson, spent his career helping Big Tobacco, Teflon makers, and other corporations downplay the risks of their chemicals. He doesn’t belong at the EPA where he would have the power to greenlight toxics like asbestos, lead, and BPA —substances that have been linked to cancer, delayed mental development, and major reproductive harm. Trump is showing again that our health doesn’t matter to him, especially the people of color and low-income communities who will be hurt the most by gutting our toxics laws. Sign the petition to tell the nomination committee chairs to #DumpDourson.154 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Virali Modi-Parekh

CA State Assembly : Fight Climate Change and Pass Bill AB-1184This landmark legislation offers a true level playing field for zero-emission vehicles in the competitive market of CA. The people of CA care about climate change and want the opportunity to participate in this fight. By allowing us to purchase zero-emission vehicles for the same price as Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles you will help spur economic growth and fight climate change at the same time.860 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Benjamin Sullins

Climate Change is the Elephant in the Houston disaster room!We in the environmental movement know that "local" disasters, Hurricanes Harvey and Katrina, are directly tied to the ongoing global climate apocalypse of human-caused global warming. Only the media and the government are covering up this biggest news of the millennium, and worsening its effect as the waters rise around us. Be a hero and reverse this flood of ignorance!.56 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carol Long

Congress: Fund NASA and NOAA hurricane-tracking satellites and climate scienceClimate scientists have long predicted extreme weather events caused by climate change. But Congress is defunding satellites necessary for understanding the origins, frequency, and severity of killer storms. Shutting down science when the weather is killing people is like shutting down medical research when you discover ebola.1,523 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Joe M Lamb

Keep Seismic Testing out of MonroevilleThe fracking industry is targeting Monroeville for seismic testing - the first step to oil and gas drilling. This process involves setting off explosives in deep holes on the ground, or using “thumper” trucks to drop a weighted plate to the ground. Both methods create tremors that can damage property and buried infrastructure. Seismic testing is not safe for our community, and could potentially open the door for fracking in Monroeville. On August 8th, Monroeville Council introduced legislation to protect residents by regulating this seismic testing. Please sign to urge the Monroeville Council to pass the legislation.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Miranda Carter, Food & Water Watch
