Growth in our economy does not mean shared benefits
Growth in our economy does not mean shared benefits, it only benefits the 1% while the 99% continues to struggle when their wages are not keeping up with the cost of living. #VoteGreen… https://t.co/FevzylYSXD

Greenpeace: New oil pipelines threaten water and endangered orcas
Oil pipelines are a threat to clean drinking water and our oceans.
A proposed tar sands pipeline in Canada that would create a tanker superhighway that could drive the 76 remaining endangered Southern Resident orcas to extinction.
Expansion of tar sands oil will undermine efforts to protect the global climate, and it’s not a question of if, but when, pipelines will spill, threatening access to clean water.
Energy Transfer Partners’ Dakota Access Pipeline has already spilled four times since it was built, and a major spill would threaten the drinking water of 17 million people.
But the wave of resistance is building.
Some banks are already backing away from tar sands pipelines and Energy Transfer Partners, but each of these Dirty Dozen banks are still financially involved in some of these projects. If people around the world ask their banks to commit to NOT fund these pipelines, we can tip the balance on these toxic projects and stop these new pipelines for good.
Tell the Dirty Dozen banks not to fund pipelines that threaten our water!
Greenpeace: Less is More!
Eating more plant-based meals is not only good for your health, it’s vital for our planet. In fact, producing meat releases as many carbon emissions as all planes, trains, cars, and trucks combined. Our planet needs less meat and more plants — now, and you can help make it happen!
One Truckload of Plastic
The equivalent of a truckload of plastic enters the oceans every minute. By 2050, there will be 12 billion tonnes of plastic waste in natural environments. That needs to stop. #BreakFreeFromPlastic #Useless #Wasteless
Every minute of every day, the equivalent of one truckload of plastic enters the sea

Stop the Meadowlands Fracked Gas Plant
We don’t need another major polluter in our communities.
Governor Murphy has the power to stop this fracked gas power plant before it can be built. Let’s hold him accountable to his promise of a healthier, more prosperous New Jersey powered by 100% renewable energy.
Sign the petition to tell him and your local and state representatives that we’ll accept nothing less than a full rejection of this dirty, dangerous fracked gas power plant proposal.
