Oppose Fracking

Peacemakers,

WNY Drilling Defense and the Anti-Fracking Task Force of the WNY Peace
Center plus dozens of other environmental organizations request you write
Gov. Cuomo telling him why it’s a bad idea for NY State’s Department of
Environmental Conservation to set hydrofracking regulations in stone
before completing the review of the effects of hydrofracking on public
health.
The regulatory cement is being poured and those impervious walls may
conflict with new regulations proposed at the conclusion of the now
on-going health study. OOPS! Even if hydrofracking kills the non-corporate
type of human beings who live near the rigs…. we will hydrofrack! The law
says we can, regardless of the consequences. RIP, and will your property
to the gas company.
Obviously the hydrofracking delays in NY State are causing rabid Wall St
profiteers to froth upon their bank statements smudging the many digits to
the left of the decimal point…. and they are calling upon Gov. Cuomo to
speed up things. By writing regs now, ENCON is throwing Wall St a bone and
the higher-ups in ENCON are securing a future job with a natural gas
company while collecting their NYS retirement.
Let’s keep the natural gas company CEOs tied up and supply Gov. Cuomo with
pooper scoopers in the form of many, many letters.
Details about how to do this are below…..start
writing…Dr. Sandra Steingraber who gave a wonderful lecture at the WNY
Peace Center’s annual dinner a few years ago, says you can do one letter a
day for the next 30 days.
There can be no better way to celebrate the holiday season, and welcome
the New Year.
Peace,
Charley
