To all those who said that nothing we did we would matter, that this pipeline was a done deal, to the naysayers who scoffed when we said we would change the world. I say to you, we already have.
Dear Mr. President,
Thank you for rejecting the permit for the Keystone XL.
As one of the over 1,200 arrested at the 1st Tar Sands Action, I have been working hard to educate voters on the truth regarding this pipeline. It would not create tens of thousands of jobs, the truth is, any jobs created would be toxic, and eventually be a strain on our health care system.
This pipeline would not help us to increase our energy independence, only renewable energy can do that.
Renewable energy is our path to increased National Security, job creation, peace & prosperity, a balanced budget and deficit reduction.
This is the day we have been waiting for Mr. President, lead us forward toward our future, not mired in the muck of our fossil fuel past.
Dirty & diminishing resources create dirty & diminishing economy.
Sustainable & renewable resources create sustainable & renewable economy.
This is the time & place we choose.
Start the Renewable Energy Revolution, return America to a leadership position in innovation and manufacturing.
Lead the world from war & turmoil, slaves to oil & gas speculations and toxic contamination of our water.
Start right now by calling on Congress to pass the FRAC Act.
To all those who said that nothing we did we would matter, that this pipeline was a done deal, to the naysayers who scoffed when we said we would change the world. I say to you, we already have.
Thank you.
