Our ocean is at risk. Many polluting, climate-changing, expensive fossil fuel industries are attempting to invade our ocean, including offshore oil and gas exploration and drilling along the Atlantic coast and liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities just off the NJ/NY coast.
We must choose green, renewable domestic energy that creates thousands of good, sustainable jobs. The real answers to U.S. energy independence are conservation, efficiency, and renewable sources.
Existing laws and regulations are insufficient to protect the vast value of this ocean region and its living marine resources. Therefore, we need the passage of "The NJ/NY Clean Ocean Zone" legislation.
We, the undersigned, vehemently object to activities that pollute or harm our ocean and support the Clean Ocean Zone legislation.
