Sign our Petition to President-Elect Obama

The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it.
Psalm 24:1

As people of diverse religious and spiritual backgrounds concerned for the health of Creation and for our nation’s most vulnerable communities, I ask you to make three environmental commitments as you take office.

• Restore funding for the Superfund Toxic Site Cleanup Program
• Strengthen our nation’s environmental justice efforts to give all people a safe, healthy environment - regardless of their race or income level
• Launch a green jobs, clean energy initiative to combat global warming.

Each of these steps represents a moral imperative. Each will require principled, committed leadership. We pledge our support to you in relation to these efforts. Our nation’s most vulnerable communities, and future generations, need your leadership – now.
