Save the Delaware River from Fracking

Save the Delaware River from Fracking












Nov 21.Trenton update!





Hey folks-





We are all gearing up for November 21st. On Monday, we had a great screening in Delaware and folks are calling the Army Corps of Engineers, 703-697-4672 and the Governor of Delaware like crazy to oppose fracking the Delaware, Jack Markell 703-697-4672.

Please join in and make these calls.





Momentum is building. Yesterday, I had a meeting at the Council on Environmental Quality at the White House to plead our case and two meetings with the New York Times. Mark Ruffalo has released a great new video in support and enthusiasm is building.





We can save the Delaware on November 21st. Don't miss it.





DRBC is trying to rob us of our right to have a voice in their hearing - but if we all show up together, we will make ourselves be heard, change the outcome, and protect the Delaware River. We can win - if we have enough people. If you are out of the area, make the calls above. However, if you are nearby, please consider joining in. Bus information from around the region HERE.



So here's the plan:



There are 2,000 seats in the auditorium. We need to fill as many of those seats as possible with people against fracking. Together we will engage in an ORGANIZED, DIGNIFIED, PEACEFUL protest. In order to plug in, we need you to come to a training the night before or attend the briefing the morning of the 21st. There will be two simultaneous evening trainings on Nov 20th, in NYC and in Trenton NJ, and you can get the details and RSVP for them HERE. If you cannot attend a training, there will be a briefing the morning of the 21st (location and time TBA) for people to plug-in to the plan. There will be multiple roles for this creative action, and if you can, bring $100 emergency money and your ID. For more details and to sign up for pay-what-you-can buses and to see Mark's video please go to www.savethedelawareriver.com





Thanks,
