  • Compiled HP Letters to President Obama.2.20.14
    President Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20500 February 20, 2014 Dear President Obama, Enclosed please find letters from more than 1,000 health professionals nationwide calling for a stop to fracking. Fracking operations often use toxic chemicals, generate millions of gallons of wastewater that can be laced with cancer-causing and even radioactive material, release asthma-inducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful pollutants into the air we breathe, and contribute significantly to global warming. Given this toll of damage, these health professionals assert the prudent and precautionary response would be to stop fracking, and are calling for immediate action from your administration and other elected officials to protect public health. Sincerely, Courtney Abrams Clean Water Program Director Environment America Research & Policy Center Let’s Protect America’s Health from Fracking February 20, 21014 Dear President Obama, As doctors, nurses, researchers and other health and public health professionals, we are deeply concerned about high-volume horizontal hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) and its growing threats to public health and the environment. Fracking operations (i.e., the full cycle of extraction operations, not solely the fracturing technique) inject complex mixes of toxic chemicals deep underground; generate millions of gallons of wastewater that is often laced with radioactive, cancer- and other disease-causing toxicants; release toxic chemicals into the air we breathe, and contribute significantly to climate change. Each of these threats increasingly takes its toll, including: • Fracking operations have contaminated drinking water sources from Pennsylvania to New Mexico. Leaks and spills of fracturing fluid – which often contain known carcinogens (e.g.

The meeting was initiated with the belief that the academic establiihment and the Peace Corps need each other. Three propositions were presented: (1) the Peace Corps; should see itself as an educational institution; (2) colleges and universities should become more like the Peace Corps; (3) the relationship between the Peace Corps and American higher education should be permanently committed. As a result of this meeting. Sargeant Shriver established an Education Task Force to raise the level of Peace Corps "training" to "education" in order to see the education of Volunteers as a two- or three-year process continuing throughout their service. Among, ideas from the discussion resulting in the Peace Corps new education program were (1) a panel of faculty advisors who communicate with Volunteers and visit them overseas for inservice and completion of service conferences. and (2) appropriate .recognition by colleges and universities of education for volunteer service..(se) ,,,,amr,F,FTA,M4-4,,,,A, .4- U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION &WELFARE OFFICE Of EDUCATION 141 00 THIS DOCUMENT HAS BEEN REPRODUCEDEXACTLY AS RECEIVED FROM THE CV PERSON OR ORGANIZATION ORIGINATING IT.POINTS OF VIEW OR OPINIONS STATED DO NOT NECESSARILY REPRESENTOFFICIAL OFFICE OF EDUCATION CI POSITION OR POLICY.
