TERMS: From the Discovery Center to the falls will be a designated zone allowing commercialization. This area of the gorge is already commercialized.

The Western Environmental Law Center and a coalition of conservation groups have challenged this LNG project for years, and we secured a great victory when the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) rejected the Jordan Cove-Pacific Connector project in early 2016 after it was determined that the drawbacks of the pipeline outweigh its public benefits. Now it’s back thanks to the Trump Administration’s plans to allow fossil fuels to further exploit our natural heritage, our communities, and our climate. The Western Environmental Law Center is a nonprofit, public-interest environmental law firm. Our expert attorneys are ready to use the full power of the law to stop the dangerous and destructive Jordan Cove LNG Terminal and Pacific Connector Pipeline project. WELC will be submitting all signatures and comments below to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on July 10, 2017.

Did you know that the Department of Transportation is regularly spraying more than 600 gals of Roundup and other harmful chemical herbicides along Highway 68, a 24-mile Rio Grande River corridor? I saw it happening and stopped the driver, and got some details on the spraying. Then I asked him if he knew that in this area we have all kinds of migratory birds (including the bald eagle), all sorts of fish and that people swim, raft, fish and live here. This water is used to grow our food. This River is our Life line. It's the Life line of the entire area and for all the creatures large and small. Water is precious. Water is Life. It needs to be protected, not poisoned. "Glyphosate may well be the most toxic chemical ever approved for commercial use, as it is now linked to kidney disease, antibiotic resistant bacteria, inflammatory bowel disease, depression, ADHD, autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, multiple sclerosis, cancer, cachexia, infertility, and developmental malformations. It destroys the microbiome of humans and plants, which is the root cause of many modern diseases". Ban Round Up In Our Town

On June 1, 2017, the current president declared that America would no longer abide by the agreements of the Paris Climate Accords. This is an agreement that was made to mitigate the affects of greenhouses gases on global climate change. It has been signed by 195 countries. This is a move that purports to put America first but in reality puts the Earth last. It is now up to the governors of the 50 individual United States of America to do what Trump will not. This issue is particularly important to the state of Louisiana. Scientifically recognized maps show our state being mostly under water in the very foreseeable future. This may or may not be a preventable future but the least we can do is slow it down.

We need to become better caretakers of the planet. Reducing our carbon footprint can only help our lives, it will not hurt us. Generations of people in the future will be thankful for our courage and commitment. This is a non-partisan effort that should be embraced by everyone.

Climate change is a serious crisis that impacts every one in the world. If we do not begin taking the actions needed to save our planet, it will become uninhabitable for ourselves and future generations. Although President Trump has decided to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement, several states have come together to create a coalition committed to the carbon reduction efforts required by the agreement. Please help me in urging Governor Bryant to enlist Mississippi in this coalition in order to save the planet from climate change! If we don't start taking efforts to combat it now, it may be too late. Climate change is real. We cannot deny it any longer.

As a resident of a coastal state with a thriving tourism industry, I am extremely concerned about the impact that rising sea levels due to global warming will have on our economy. We can and should take every opportunity to reverse the trend of climate change through sustainable environmental practices.

The city of Kent has a unique opportunity to lead the country in clean energy development. Kent is the 4th largest manufacturing/distribution center in the country and stands to gain a lot from leveraging our strong capabilities to innovate in the field of renewable energy. Join the mayors of Seattle, Bellingham, Edmonds, Everett, Olympia, Redmond, Snoqualmie, and Tacoma in curbing greenhouse gas emissions while also growing our local economy.

For now, and especially for our future: Join! For your children, grandchildren, and on: Join!

I am starting this petition because Kentucky is embarrassed in the media too often. Let's be on the right side of history.

It is essential that we join together to keep our environment safe. Global warming is real, it is a threat to South Dakota's children and grandchildren.
