  • SAVE THE RIGHT WHALE FROM EXTINCTION
    The people of the Georgia Coast call on you to protect the North American Right Whale. Right Whale mothers swim the length of the Atlantic Seaboard to bear their young here in their only known calving grounds. They are the most vulnerable members of a species that the State Legislature named “Georgia’s State Marine Mammal.” But the Right Whale is in serious danger of extinction at the hands of the U.S. Navy. The Navy is building a submarine warfare training range adjacent to the nursery of the most critically endangered of the large whales. Underwater explosives and sonar from surface ships and helicopters used in routine training exercises are extremely harmful to whales and dolphins. In 2005, 36 whales from a population of many thousands beached themselves on the Outer Banks after just a few days of sonar from the USS Teddy Roosevelt. The Navy says it will use sonar and underwater explosives 470 times a year over the 20-year lifespan of the warfare range. If 36 whales wash up dead on our beaches, that is 10% of the population. NOAA has said that the death of only one whale threatens the existence of this species. The massive whale and dolphin “takes” predicted by our Navy in the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the Gulf of Mexico---5 million instances of temporary hearing loss, 15,000 instances of permanent hearing loss, almost 9,000 lung injuries, and more than 1,800 deaths from sonar and underwater explosives over the next five years are cruel; and they are unnecessary. The Navy could prevent death by vessel strike by installing smart buoy systems and cellphone apps to detect whales instead of binoculars. In fact, it is only by using modern satellite technology, underwater drones, and simulation techniques to train personnel that we can maintain our place as the best Navy in the world. 20-year old sonar technology is useless against modern enemy subs coated with sonar-repelling paint. By converting to modern technology, we can reduce the toll on marine life without compromising national security. You are our leaders. You have the power to stop this inhumane slaughter. We urge you to use your influence to stop the Navy from removing from the earth a magnificent creature that has been here 50 million years.

  • Jupiter Country Club and Toll Brothers have forced us to unusable plastic cups.
    The fact that Toll Brothers made the change to the plastic cups unilaterally has been an affront to the members of Jupiter Country Club. There are several reasons why the club should switch back to the Foam water cups. 1. The plastic cups are more than twice as expensive as the foam cups 2. The plastic cups do not provide any insulation for the water and ice. Therefore within 15 minutes all the ice in the cup has melted. 3. The plastic cups are awkward to use with the ice and water dispensers. This means it takes longer to fill the cups and ice and water are spilled around the machine. Members are clearly frustrated by this. 4. The rigid plastic tops to the cups collapse the straws making them unusable. 5. Foam cups can be recycled just as egg cartons and meat trays are at our local supermarket. We demand that the club switch back to the foam water cups as soon as possible!

  • Winnipeg Free Press: Don't Publish Climate Denial
    Newspapers need to stop publishing letters that deny climate change. Such letters do not add to the discussion, and prevent us from moving forward to address the serious consequences of climate change.

  • Pea Pod: Better Management and Working Conditions
    I am currently a shopper for Peapod and not only have i experienced discriminatory behavior i have also witnessed it numerous of times. everyone should be concerned about this issue because the working conditions of Peapod in New Hyde Park is inhumane and the way that the workers are treated is terrible and unjust. The morale has left our store. People are not happy to come to work. We feel our voice is not important and our management has failed in the eyes of majority of the Peapod employees. Therefore we ask for help on a corporate level to help us improve the perception of Stop and shop/Peapod values on the employee level. Some of the issues are: Abuse of scheduling,Overlooking known issues and concerns, Unprofessional actions towards employees (***open conversations in front of other coworkers pertaining to confidential information **), and racist attitudes towards the minorities.

  • Give the Pizza Hut Manager His Job Back!!!
    Tony and his employees deserve a holiday off, especially after they've been promised as much the whole year. This is a change from past years, when the store was closed on Thanksgiving. As a customer and a person who values time with family, I'm fine with Tony wanting a holiday off for himself and the rest of the Pizza Hut staff. Stand with me and implore Pizza Hut: give Tony Rohr back his job!

  • Tell NOAA- NO to Shark Fins! Support Congressman Huffman's campaign to save sharks.
    We have worked hard to protect US sharks from overfishing and sharks threatened with extinction posed by the shark fin trade.. US fisheries managers should manage our shark populations, not succumb to pressure by shark fishers and the shark fin trade. State shark fin trade laws do not interfere with the Magnusen Stevens Act. We support Congresspersons Jared Huffman, Grace Meng and 62 other representatives from both parties insisting that NOAA must remove the language weakening the Shark Conservation Act and State's rights to protect sharks.

  • TESLA TEXAS DIRECT
    Tesla sells its cars directly to consumers, but state law currently prohibits Tesla from operating in Texas: Car makers are not allowed to sell vehicles directly to the public in Texas, they must sell through independently-owned franchises. Over twelve hundred franchised new car and truck dealerships are essential to the fabric of Texas. We seek to allow a change in the Law that allows Tesla to sell its cars directly to consumers in Texas. By allowing Tesla to sell its cars directly to consumers, we are supporting the automobile industry of the United States and ultimately the entire US economy. Texas Dealerships must join the brotherhood of humanity to create jobs and opportunity for all mankind.
