We Can Ban Fracking Where We Live
Roots Action
Governor Cuomo of New York has declared a statewide ban on fracking. Local citizen-led initiatives in Ohio, Texas, New Mexico, and California have banned fracking. Communities across the United States and world are saying NO to this environmentally disastrous method ofextracting fossil fuels from the land.
Would you like to ban fracking in your community or your state
Real change happens when everyday people come together and stand up for what they believe in. Together we can reach thousands of people and help create change around this important issue. Because of the work of concerned citizens like you, fracking is now banned in New York State; Mendocino and San Benito counties in California; Athens, Ohio; Mora, New Mexico; and Denton, Texas.
Banning fracking across the country can start with you.
