ATTEND EARTH DAY ACTIONS AT REGIONAL DEP OFFICES
Friends of the Earth and those who wish to live in harmony with her and protect her from devastation, please join us on Earth Day, April 22, 2013 as we call upon the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to fulfill it’s mission “to protect Pennsylvania’s air, land and water from pollution and to provide for the health and safety of its citizens through a cleaner environment. We will work as partners with individuals, organizations, governments and businesses to prevent pollution and restore our natural resources.”
Join us as we gather at DEP’s regional offices in Harrisburg, Norristown, Meadeville, Pittsburgh, Wilkes-Barre and Williamsport to demand
- The Resignation of DEP Secretary Michael Krancer for failure to fulfill the DEP mission
- No More Permits for gas wells, compressor stations, pipelines, water withdrawals and other infrastructure related to natural gas, coal or oil extraction
- No More Toxic Secrets full disclosure of water test and other studies done by the DEP
- Justice for those harmed by the oil & gas industry
- Reopen the Office of Energy and Technology Deployment to develop solar, wind and other renewable energy technologies
