Governor Perdue: Veto House Bill 819

North Carolina legislators have passed a bill that forces state leaders to ignore scientific predictions that sea levels could rise by more than three feet in the next century. Just weeks ago a US Geological Survey study found the Cape Hatteras region a hot spot for sea level rise. We can't ignore sound science when it comes to global warming, rising sea levels and North Carolina's 301 miles of coastline. We are calling on Governor Perdue to put this matter to rest with her veto.
