Comment | Dear Air Resources Board: The people of California have voted and Proposition 23 passed. Why are oil companies trying to circumvent the peoples' decision? Why are YOU even considering going against the will of the voters? Oil and gas pollute our lives, our lungs and apparently our legal system. Please don't tell us that this is about jobs, because really, it is about our health, which is a wonderful thing and often taken for granted until people lose it. You, BOARD, have an obligation to the people of this state, and even more, you have an obligation to the planet. Yes, we all do share the same air. What pollutes in one place will soon travel and pass to the rest of the world. What you decide will affect the climate of this state, this planet and our collective future. I read once that a molecule once breathed in by Leonardo Da Vinci is still with us, and maybe you and I have breathed in one and the same molecule. What a wonderful reminder this is to show that WE of the earth all share the past, present and future of the planet. In your PRESENT state, please decide for the POSITIVE future of all. Like Da Vinci's, MONA LISA, we aren't quite sure what is being thought, what will she or YOU do in the next moment? What will YOU do in this next momentous decision? SUPPORT the People, the Planet and Nature herself. To bend to the will of the oil companies is to send us all hacking, coughing and dying and on to a future LAST SUPPER, and we all know how that ended. -30- |
