A message from Al Gore:
Dear Friend,
Global warming is a problem of unprecedented magnitude and that's why we've launched
the largest mobilization campaign ever. Actions by individuals like you will be the
driving force behind this campaign and our ultimate victory. We're going to succeed,
but I need your help today.
More than 855,000 people have already joined us, but if leaders in business and
government are going to make stopping climate change a priority, we need you to urge
your friends to get involved today:
http://whatcounts.com/t?ctl=1B9EF11:178A20C75093925EFE5031FA1F1E940C36D23D299E5A5934&
We need to grow to 1,000,000 members by April so we can send a loud message that we
want action now. That's why I need you to forward the email below to all of your
friends and family right now and ask them to add their voice.
Thank you,
Al Gore

Say no to oil shale production in public lands in Utha
Comment period until March 20
The Bureau of Land Management is pursuing a program to lease out the
rights to mine for oil shale across millions of acres in Wyoming,
Colorado, and Utah .
Oil shale production is among the dirtiest and most environmentally
degrading land uses that the West has ever seen. It involves either
massive strip mining or bulldozing the entire landscape where
extraction occurs. It requires huge amounts of electricity to wring
petroleum products from the rock, which will likely mean major
increases in polluting coal-fired power plants, with heavy impacts to
global warming. In addition, BLM predicts that full-scale oil shale
operations would use up 2 to 15 percent of the flow of the
Colorado River system, a waterway that is already badly overused.
Left behind is slag that leaches heavy metals and other toxic
compounds into surface and groundwater supplies.
The BLM is proposing to sell the rights to dig for oil shale on
millions of acres of public land without adequately considering
impacts to sensitive wildlife and treasured landscapes. At risk are
key habitats for sage grouse and desert elk as well as spectacular
places like the Adobe Town and the Kinney Rim proposed wilderness areas in the Red Desert.
Speak out now against the destruction of western public lands in the name of oil shale!
Tell the BLM that a full-scale commitment to oil shale production
should wait until after the oil industry proves that oil shale can be
produced without unacceptable impacts to our lands, waters, and air
quality. Tell BLM to adopt the No Action alternative and not move
forward with commercial-scale oil shale leasing until results from
the experimental Research and Development oil shale pilot projects
become available.
