Dodging Pollution: An Underdog Story
Earthjustice - Non-Profit - www.earthjustice.org
Some of the worst air polluters have dodged controls for decades, pumping dirty air that makes playing outside a dangerous game for kids across the U.S. Though 2011 brings unprecedented opportunities to clean up these polluters, only public pressure can counteract the polluter lobby's influence. A humorous video can help: in a dodgeball game between kids and pollution, large men dressed as mercury, soot, and other pollutants hurl dodgeballs labeled with diseases (e.g. asthma ) while kids counter with balls marked "health" and "clean air". The message: join the kids' team to ensure dirty industries don't dodge clean air rules again.

Earthjustice is a very effective environmental organization which is critically needed at this time of great environmental degradation and so I vote whole heartedly for Earthjustice !

The older one gets the more he or she can remember when polluted air was seen and felt in few cities, whereas in present day pollution is seen and felt in almost every city and even small communities. Our number one priority must be to clean up the air everywhere. Organizations such as Earthjustice are our only hope.

Without the air that the world's entire ecosystem is adapted to, we shall have very little of anything left of our earth's ecosystem. It will not be a very hospitable place for humans, non-human animals or vegetation to live.

Clean air improves all levels of the planets ecosystems. What we eat breath and drink. No one can afford to pollute like many factories and businesses still do today.

The environment is one of the most important issues in this earth. It definitely needs to be taken very, very seriously. I wish people would realize how much harm we all have made to this amazing planet.

Like Earthjustice, I firmly believe the earth needs good lawyers. They have been fighting the good fight for our planet for a long time. It's with great appreciation I vote for them, in hopes they can bring more attention to the problem of pollution and how it harms health and the environment.
