Don't Wait for the Next Meeting! Contact YOUR Local Officials Today! 

Ask them why they aren't doing something about our water crisis!  Is it OK with them that untreated animal urine and feces, antibiotic-resistant bacteria and viruses - with as much Phosphorus as the combined human populations of Ohio, Indiana, Chicago and Atlanta - is being spread on fields that drain into our drinking water?  That's acceptable?!?

 

Call, E-mail, and Write your Local Representatives to insist they support a ban on factory "farms!" Below are a few names to get you started.
