• COP28 must commit to rural peoples' demands for food, land and climate justice
    If humanity is to survive and thrive, people's rights and sovereignty must be the center of sustainable development - not the narrow profit interests of big corporations. The COP28 climate talks is an opportunity for rural peoples to demand reforms that can help stop their communities' displacement, people's hunger, and the planet's destruction.

  • Against Proposed Rotary Park Hiking Trails Non-Motorized Pathway
    Rotary Park is considered a "Nature Reserve". By definition a "Nature Reserve" is a tract of land managed so as to preserve its flora, fauna, and physical features. People come to walk through the woods to enjoy nature, escape the city, walk their dogs, take photos, hike with family and friends, explore, etc. It is Livonia's GEM. People don't come here to walk on gravel. They want to walk through the leaves in the Fall, the muck in the Spring with their nice rain-boots on to see the Robins and the wildflowers blooming. Those small moments make up the human experience, and they aren't so small once you think about it. Livonia Parks and Rec. should focus on what the actual problems are before trying to add more. Once you ruin something, you can never take it back. It is ruined forever. Next Parks and Recreation Commission meeting is March 1st 2023, at 7:00pm at the Community Center Conference Room at the Kirksey Recreation Center.

  • Allow owning chickens in Crown Point, In.
    The CDC, USDA, and the NIH have all released reports of growing concerns for global food insecurity due to the impact of climate change. The CDC reports that nutritional value of food is projected to decline due to soil nitrogen levels being suboptimal. Farmers are expected to use more herbicides and pesticides due to increased growth of pests and weeds. As a result, farmers, farmworkers, and consumers will be increasingly exposed to these substances and their residues, which can be toxic. These impacts of climate change on the nutritional value of food exist within a larger context. The CDC recommends adaptation activities to reduce health related impacts of the anticipated food security challenges. Changing the way we go about agricultural practices, food distribution systems, and consumer food choices, also play key roles in solving the global crisis. The USDA also reports that climate change is very likely to affect global, regional, and local food security by disrupting food availability, decreasing access to food, and making utilization more difficult. As part of a highly integrated global food system, consumers and producers in the United States are likely to be affected by these changes. Adaptation across the food system has great potential to manage climate-change effects on food security, and the complexity of the food system offers multiple potential points of intervention for decision makers at every level, from households to nations and international governance structures. The right to have backyard chickens/chicken coops is part and parcel of Crown Point citizens’ right to self sustaining and environmentally sound living practices. Creating a new ordinance that allows residents of Crown Point to own egg laying chickens and coops, is an easy solution to a global concern. Chickens provide a chemical free and organic food supply with high nutrient and protein value to my children at very little cost and work. It is the citizens right to self-determination to procure a secure source of healthy and nutritious food. Chickens are a necessary element to environmentally friendly, self-sustaining gardening practices that promote healthy food security. Food security is a fundamental human right, that is paramount to the health and wellbeing of the citizens of Crown Point.

  • Stop the Felling of The Crystal Palace Poplar Tree
    Following the clearance of nearby trees and shrubs by Network Rail, this tree is of extreme importance as being one of only a few remaining in the immediate area. Trees help minimise noise pollution, combat carbon dioxide emissions, encourage biodiversity and conserve the greenery in our town of Berkhamsted. We, the local residents, many of who fought hard to ensure The Crystal Palace remained a public house rather than be developed into flats, and who should form the core customer base for the business, are greatly disappointed by the proposed removal of the tree.

  • Zaustavimo pretjeranu gradnju na Banovcu
    U proteklih desetak godina na području grada izgrađene su 4 velike stambene zgrade sa nekoliko stotina stanova. U isto vrijeme oko tih zgrada je izgrađeno NULA parking mjesta. Stanari novih zgrada imaju izbor da kupe parking mjesto u suterenu zgrade ili da parkiraju na parking mjestima izgrađenim oko starijih zgrada ili javnih objekata. Korisnici poslovnih prostora u tim zgradama su prinuđeni koristiti parking mjesta oko drugih zgrada čime dovode u nepovoljan položaj stanare zgrada koje su izgrađene ranije, uz poštivanje standarda. Podsjećam, prema normativima koji se trenutno koriste kod izrade regulacionih planova za stambeni prostor je potrebno obezbijediti 1,1 parking mjesta (PM) po stanu (jedno za svaki stan i 10% za goste), za poslovne prostore jedno PM za svakih 60 m2 bruto građevinske površine, za administrativni prostor jedno PM za svakih 30m2 bruto građevinske površine. Šta mi imamo na Banovcu? U zadnjih desetak godina regulacioni plan Banovac je promijenjen najmanje tri puta. Podsjetiću vas da je na ovom lokalitetu bila planirana gradnja gradskog bazena, zatim komercijalnih garaža, onda stanogradnja po jednom planu i na kraju urbicid po najnovijem planu. Da li znate da vas očekuje 6 spratova na livadici u četverouglu fazum- žuta zgrada – A2 – crvena zgrada? Znate li da se na preostalom zemljištu, pored izgrađene neuseljene zgrade, tačnije iza nje planira izgradnja još najmanje tri zgrade, vjerujem po 6 spratova svaka? Da li su stanari koji su kupovali stanove u ovim zgradama, kada su bile na prostranim i osunčanim lokacijama, znali da će dobiti nove na svega nekoliko metara? Da li su prevareni? Da li znate da se čitavo ovo naselje u izgradnji, sa stotinama novih stanova, zajedno sa Podlugovima i donjim dijelom općine napaja pitkom vodom kroz jednu cijev promjera 20 cm? Da li mislite da ćete imati dovoljno pitke vode već sljedećeg ljeta, posebno ovi na višim spratovima novih zgrada? Da li znate ko ima koristi od svega? Znate li ko će godinama plaćati cijenu koristi iz prethodnog pitanja? Svi mi. Ko je sve to omogućio a ko može zaustaviti? Naš grad je jedan od rijetkih u kojima ne morate plaćati parking, bilo da tu živite ili ste gost. Pretjeranom stanogradnjom na jednom uskom području se vještački izaziva nestašica parking prostora. Kome to ide u prilog? Ide u prilog budućem investitoru koji će graditi komercijalne garaže (sada su predviđene pored Binga). Ko će platiti cijenu profita budućeg investitora? Svi mi koji nećemo imati gdje parkirati svoje vozilo. Oni koji žive u zgradama izgrađenim u bivšoj državi će se boriti za parking mjesto sa stanarima novih zgrada koji neće moći odvojiti 15-20 hiljada KM za parking mjesto u podrumu zgrade u kojoj će živjeti. Možda će imati dva ili više automobila po stanu. Možda ćete samo trebati šišanje ili uređivanje obrva u jednom od salona u jednoj od novih zgrada u kojima je investitor trebao obezbijediti parking i za bricu i za mušteriju. Nema veze, biće plaćeni parking kod Binga, do brice ćete prošetati. Ako bude dovoljno hladno možda obrve same spadnu do kozmetičarke. Ko je odgovoran za ovakvo stanje? Isključivo Općina Ilijaš koja investitorima dozvoljava da im se podzemne garaže računaju kao dovoljne, dozvoljava da se parking mjesta za poslovne prostore koriste na javnim parkinzima, ona koja prodaje lotove u milionskim iznosima pa onda vraća uslugu investitoru odobravanjem dehumanizacije ljudskog življenja u prenatrpanim prostorima, kao da ne postoji nijedno drugo mjesto za gradnju. Konfiguracija terena u gradu kojem živimo je veoma nepovoljna za prirodno strujanje zraka i uglavnom smo na vrhu liste po zagađenosti zraka u BiH. Gradnja većeg broja visokih zgrada uz postojanje Savića brda u neposrednoj blizini će dodatno otežati cirkulaciju zraka i kvalitet zraka će dodatno opasti. Šta možemo učiniti? Kao prvo nemojmo dozvoliti da nam se klasični urbicid i omogućavanje extra profita investitorima predstavi kao društveni napredak. To nije slučaj. Možemo takođe potpisati peticiju na ovom linku: sa sljedećim zahtjevima: 1. Da se hitno izmijeni regulacioni plan kako bi se spriječila daljnja dehumanizacija života u Ilijašu; 2. Da se zaustavi izdavanje novih građevinskih dozvola na lokalitetu Banovac; 3. Da se izmijene izdate građevinske dozvole na način da se investitori obavežu da izgrade parking mjesta oko zgrada na način da se najviše jedna trećina potreba za parking mjestima ostvari u garažnim objektima a ostatak planira na otvorenom prostoru; 4. Da se neizgrađeno građevinsko zemljište na lokalitetu Banovac planira za izgradnju javnog parkinga i sportske plohe; 5. Da se omogući vodosnabdijevanje naselja na način koji neće uzrokovati nestašice vode u bilo koje doba godine. (Lista zahtjeva može biti dorađena sjednici Općinskog vijeća Općine Ilijaš kojoj će biti dostavljena)

  • Clean Water In New York
    Exposure to PFAS causes serious health effects such as death, cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, increased asthma, and thyroid disease. New Yorkers deserve safe and usable water without risk and fear. I grew up in a town on the Hudson River, which was heavily polluted by PCBs due to waste dumping from a nearby manufacturing plant. Even though the waste was being dumped into the river from 1947 up until 1977, the effects it had on the river lasted until recently. Securing more sustainable water for New Yorkers is essential not just for us currently but for the future of New York.
