The owners of Hobby Lobby have been fighting to exclude birth control coverage in the insurance plans covering their employees, most of whom are women. They've ...done so under the misguided belief that covering this essential health care item violates their personal religious beliefs. Simply put, your boss has no business making health care decisions for you.

While the Supreme Court weighs the case, you can take action right now. Sign the pledge to boycott Hobby Lobby and commit to spending your hard-earned money with companies who respect the basic health care needs of women and believe medical choices should be between you and your doctor.

As opposed to fracking, which worsens earthquakes. Thanks League of Conservation Voters. Share with anyone who is trying to claim they prefer fracking to wind energy. Which would you rather have in your town?
 

Just when you thought clean energy couldn't get any better...

Thanks League of Conservation Voters for sharing!

Exploding wells -- one more reason to ban fracking.

 

Yesterday one of Pennyslvania's many fracking wells exploded in Greene County, about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh.

Click LIKE if you agree: it's time to inves...t in energy that doesn't ignite, explode, leak, spill, or poison. All of the above is not an option.

Salt caverns for storage? Yes. Just like the one in Louisiana which holds butane, and which is collapsing, causing a sink hole, and has caused a whole community to be evacuated. This time, Inergy, the largest natural gas storage and transportation company in the US, wants to locate a salt cavern storage facility on the banks of one of the most pristine lakes in New York, Lake Seneca. Sound like a good idea to you? Comment today:
