The New York Times article (http://j.mp/L52SFJ) just indicated a plan from the NYS DEC and Governor Cuomo to create sacrifice zones for fracking in the Southern Tier. We need a quick and overwhelming response to this outrageous plan and blatant environmental injustice.

The bottom line, it is not okay to turn any part of New York and/or any New Yorkers into sacrificial fracking guinea pigs.

Take 3 actions and share far and wide.

 

1. Go to Gov. Cuomo’s Facebook page:  tell him we want a ban on fracking in all of New York including the Southern Tier: http://on.fb.me/lpzD8E

2. Tweet Governor Cuomo:  http://j.mp/MrEopx – #Fracking would create the greatest health and environmental disaster in NY’s history, and @NYGovCuomo if you break it, you own it.

3. Call Governor Cuomo:  1-866-584-6799 – and tell him,

“It is not okay to sacrifice any part of New York, fracking would create the greatest health and environmental disaster in NY’s history, if you break it you own it.”
