SUMMARY:Hands Across The Sand - Hollywood\, FL
DESCRIPTION:Calling all those who believe in protecting our oceans and water\, banning fracking and dirty fossil fuels\, and promoting clean environmental practices for our future generations to stand together at 12:00 noon on May 20th for 15 minutes of holding hands for Hands Across the Sand. \nWe will be gathering on the beach starting at 11:00 am to mingle and enjoy speakers from the region’s environmental community. \nJoin us in this moment of solidarity in our fight for transitioning from dirty fossil fuels towards clean\, renewable energy. \nRemember your hats and sunglasses! \n#JoinHANDS #WaterIsLife #StopSabalTrail #FrackNo #NoDAPL \n\nWhat is Hands Across the Sand….and how did It start?\n*Courtesy of Beachapedia* \nIn Florida on Saturday\, February 13\, 2010\, a statewide gathering against near and offshore oil drilling occurred. 10\,000 Floridians representing 60 towns and cities and over 90 beaches joined hands to protest the efforts by the Florida Legislature and the US Congress to lift the ban on oil drilling in the near and off shores of Florida. Florida’s Hands Across The Sand event was the largest gathering in the history of Florida united against expanding oil drilling into Florida’s waters. Events were held from Jacksonville to Miami Beach and Key West to Pensacola Beach. \nOn June 26\, 2010\, in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Disaster in the Gulf of Mexico\, Hands Across the Sand went National and Global. The event was announced and the website went live allowing event organizers sign up only four weeks prior to June 26th. It became the largest gathering of people in the history of the world united against expanding offshore oil drilling and championing clean energy and renewables. Over 1000 events were held worldwide. Events took place in all 50 United States\, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Events were held in 42 countries outside the U.S. including Australia\, Bangladesh\, Brazil\, Belize\, Canada\, China\, Colombia\, Costa Rica\, Germany\, Denmark\, Dominican Republic\, Ecuador\, Spain\, France\, United Kingdom\, Greenland\, Greece\, Croatia\, Ireland\, India\, Italy\, Japan\, South Korea\, Lebanon\, Mexico\, Malaysia\, Nicaragua\, Netherlands\, Norway\, New Zealand\, Panama\, Peru\, Poland\, Romania\, Sweden\, Turkey\, Tanzania\, and South Africa.

SUMMARY:Sabal Trail Pipeline Forum
DESCRIPTION:The Sabal Trail Pipeline project is a 515-mile pipeline that\, if completed\, will pump a billion cubic feet of fracked gas a day through the Upper Floridan Aquifer\, an ecologically crucial region and the source of 60 percent of our state’s drinking water. It is being built by a consortium of companies\, which includes NextEra\, the parent company of Florida Power & Light (FP&L)\, the same companies that are trying to impede the full implementation of solar energy power in the Sunshine State. \nThe dangers from the Sabal Trail Pipeline are part of an unfolding water crisis directly related to climate change that now threatens every part of Florida. \nThanks to our collective efforts\, two leading Democratic candidates for governor of Florida — Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum and former congresswoman Gwen Graham — have come out publicly against the Sabal Trail Pipeline. Throughout Florida\, at least nine county Democratic executive committee (DECs) — most recently in Miami-Dade County — have now passed resolutions against the Sabal Trail Pipeline. \nEven though our efforts to halt the construction of the Sabal Trail Pipeline are gathering momentum – we are running out of time. The pipeline could be pumping fracked gas through Florida’s wetlands and “sinkhole” country as early as this summer. \nThat’s why we’re hosting a public forum to raise awareness of the dangers the Sabal Trail Pipeline on Tuesday evening\, May 23rd in Hollywood Beach\, Florida. \nIt’s our mission to help educate the public and mainstream media\, and spur the grassroots to action — for example\, by calling and writing letters to members of Congress and other public officials\, sending letters to the editors of local newspapers\, signing our petition (we’ve already gathered over 100\,000 signatures)\, and joining the growing divestment movement to boycott the fossil fuels industry and the big Wall Street banks that fund them. \nTime is running out. If we fail to stop the Sabal Trail Pipeline\, sometime in the future — in six months or six years perhaps — the entire state of Florida may look like Flint\, Michigan\, with contaminated drinking water and dependent on bottled water for all our basic needs. Please share\, spread the word\, and join us on May 23rd to keep fighting against the fossil fuel industry\, fracking and pipelines\, and to keep working for a sustainable future based on solar and other renewable energy sources.
