To: President Donald Trump
President Obama, Create these Dark Sky National Monuments!
Please use the 1906 Antiquities Act to create the Sand to Snow, Mojave Trails and Capital Mountain National Monuments!
Why is this important?
We have a critically rare chance to make a profoundly positive impact in protecting our dark night skies of the California Desert!
The Sand to Snow, Mojave Trails, and Castle Mountain National Monuments will bring these crucial protections, and create buffers standing against light pollution encroaching on existing protected desert lands. These are the lands you visit to see meteor showers and stellar views of our Cosmos. To experience something we've lost in the ever expanding intrusion of urban sprawl!
