Friend, your signature is needed to STOP oil and gas drilling on 5,987 acres of our public lands! Communities in Montana and North Dakota could soon face increased toxic fossil fuel pollution. The Department of Interior is poised to lease precious public lands to greedy companies that will drill, frack, and mine away. An environmental assessment for this sale from the DOI itself ADMITS that oil and gas development is linked to numerous health effects: miscarriages, lung disease, cancer, and hormone disruption included! Please, Friend, tell the Department of Interior: CANCEL the sale of our public lands to greedy fossil fuel companies! Sign now before it's too late! Fracking creates other hazards for communities in addition to its air pollution. During extraction, fracking rigs blast water at EXTREME PRESSURES into the ground, destabilizing the Earth and sometimes triggering EARTHQUAKES! The wastewater can contaminate local drinking sources and can even contain RADIOACTIVE waste! The Department of Interior's deadline is fast approaching, Friend. You only have a FEW DAYS LEFT to submit your comments and protect our public lands. Don't let greedy fossil fuel executives line their pockets as they POISON our public lands and communities! We need 2,109 more signatures by 11:59pm TONIGHT to hit our goal! Sign now! Standing with you,
Nicole Ghio
Fossil Fuels Program Manager,
Friends of the Earth |
