    @PunkLuke @takepart Ha! That's an amazing idea. Of course, we need energy for safe society but clean generation is what we must demand.

    @TakePart Unfortunately our reps are kowtowing to big oil instead of doing the right thing. Apathu at the polls means this will not change

    @TakePart @RealLucyLawless I personally think that if these people don't show up, hope of a better Earth won't show up either

    @TakePart @greenpeace Because what happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in the Arctic. A healthy ice sheet protects our planet. Why destroyit?
