National Audubon"Audubon’s Birds and Climate Report revealed that climate
change is a threat to the survival of more than 50 percent of North America’s
bird species."
The Science is clear that fossil fuels will hurt bird populations. Renewable
Energy is the hope for the future that will last forever.

“solar generating facility” in August and wrap up in late 2019"

Wind power is one of the fastest growing sources of new power generation.
We can invest our power bill money in renewables rather than pipelines.

builders/owners to demonstrate verifiable, true market-driven regional need for
duplicative—and likely competing—proposed gas pipelines."

League of Conservation Voters:
We have an important call campaign this month. We're recruiting calls to the
office of Gov. Northam to urge him to conduct a stream-by-stream of the
pipelines which is going through VA. We believe that a stream-by-stream review
will put a a permanent end to the pipelines. We need a lot of help from
volunteers/community members to recruit calls.
We will be making calls at our office 100 W. Franklin St. Suite#102
Tuesday-Friday 12-6:30pm.
We're also going to be at the Farmers Market at the Forest Hill Park this
Saturday 5/12 8am-12pm and we will be collecting petition signatures to prevent
offshore drilling in Virginia. Volunteer shifts are one hour for this Saturday.
Volunteers can call/text me at 678-468-6762.
