Critical Need Immediate donations needed We need gas cards and donations now. We drive 2 hours each way, sometimes as many as 4 times in a week, to provide outreach, raise awareness and address the candidates who want to represent you. We're holding their feet to the flames on what the press and candidates won't. As you know, we are an all-volunteer organization. We use your money carefully for signs, supplies and direct action events. There is limited time to raise awareness and stop the Granite Bridge Pipeline and massive LNG tank in Epping. We hate asking, but need your help now. If this goes through, it's a huge gateway to the rest of the state. We're working hard every day to stop it. If you can make a donation today, it will help us to continue our outreach to communities and addressing our legislators and candidates for office directly! Need a physical address? Thank you to all who have already generously donated. We appreciate your support! So many of you are our loyal friends who fought the NED pipeline with us. You know what it was like living in a pipeline-threatened town. For some, it would have been in your own back yard! We want to stop Granite Bridge too, so we're appealing to our new friends as well. If you live along the pipeline route or in an abutting town, we need your support to get the correct information to you and your neighbors. For our health, safety, economy & future, we're ready to be #FossilFree603! Our popular "Live Fossil Free Or Die" moose tees are a great way to get out the word! |

Fossil fuel reserves and production facilities will become stranded assets, having absorbed capital but unable to be used to make a profit. |

The Trump Administration Is Trying to Roll Back Protections for Endangered Animals"These proposals would slam a wrecking ball into the most crucial protections for our most endangered wildlife," one conservationist said.
