    So many people in the tri-state area have been impacted by the devastation of hurricane Sandy. Let's use our resources to help those in need, instead of having a marathon.

  • Postpone the NY Marathon; All Resources to Sandy Recovery
    It's been less than a week since one of the most devastating environmental disasters this country has ever seen. Hundreds of thousands in New York and the surrounding area are struggling without electricity, food, clean water and transportation. This is the worst of all times to have 50,000 people going to New York, disrupting its transportation and diverting its resources from people who direly need them. Postpone the New York Marathon.

  • Legalize Backyard Hens in South Daytona, Fl
    I am trying to reverse a wrong that has classified chickens as farm animals. Yes, they provide a superior protein, eggs, but they are no different than any other bird kept as pets in our city now(although, they may be quieter). We do have to think about our one grocery store for 12,250 residents while we sit in a potential natural disaster area. Food security needs to be restored as a natural human right.

  • Turn Climate Change Around
    Scientists tell us that burning fossil fuels has caused the global climate changes that lead to droughts and floods and eventually threaten the ability of humans to survive on Earth. To turn the situation around we've got to stop burning petroleum.

Is there a constant fresh air exchange in the building?Chemical fragrances can cause many health issues including asthma, cancer, fertility problems, and hormone disruption. Chemical fragrances impact everyones health but even more so in the small growing bodies of children.

  • How to Decrease the Deficit using Everyone's Money
    I'm disgusted by the hoards of money both sides are squandering for this election, especially by the Republicans. I suggest that, in future elections, exactly half of ANYONE's donation to a political party or PAC be donated to Uncle Sam expressly for the purpose of reducing the deficit.

  • CONGRESS, PASS EXTENSION OF WIND POWER TAX CREDIT
    The tax credit for wind energy is set to expire at the end of this year if Congress doesn't take action. Unlike fossil fuel subsidies, which are long term and have never expired, subsidies for renewable energy have been terminated three times in the last two decades. It is time we become serious about fighting climate change. Supporting renewable energy will not only decrease our CO2 emissions but will also support our economy and help us move toward energy independence.

  • OPT OUT: CREATE DO NOT MAIL OR CALL LISTS FOR POLITICAL ADS
    According to the Washington Post, by the end of September more than $200 million had been spent on print ads by the two primary Presidential campaigns alone. Hundreds of millions more have been wasted on Senate and House campaigns. They're junking up our mailboxes, swamping our landfills, and wasting natural resources. Most people pitch them without even looking at them because none of the ads can be trusted to provide unbiased facts. We need a way to OPT OUT.
