As we head into the coming week of holidays we are thinking
about family and friends, about the world we live in and how we can make it
more loving and warm for all those we care about. We also think beyond our homes to the world
beyond, to those in need.
This year, among those in need are those that are suffering
from the ravages of shale gas, fracking and their drill sites, pipelines and
compressors. Also among those in need
are the ones who have suffered the devastating storms, floods and more that are
being brought with increased intensity and frequency because of the changing
climates brought on by our intense use of fossil fuels.
So as you head into the week of holidays and thinking about
others, please think about the steps you can take today to make a change for
our energy future, to help us ward off the ravages of drilling, fracking and
climate change.
Please take a moment to take a pledge of resistance and
protection for the Delaware River watershed and all the communities that live
here, work here, recreate here and enjoy all we have to offer.
And take a moment to commit to demand a better energy future
– one that lights and warms our present and future with greater energy
efficiency and sustainability and rejects the ongoing and increasing use of
fossil fuels.
You can make your pledge at www.pledgeofprotection.org
And don't forget to send in your one minute video of what you want to say to Governor Corbett so I can bring it to my meeting with him on January 8th and let him hear directly from you your thoughts on the issues of sustainable energy, drilling, fracking, pipelines and compressors.
