Demand a ban on Fracking and stand together for a safe energy future.

I am pleased to pass this message along to you.  New York Youth Against Fracking is a group of dedicated students at LACS who want to do what they can to inform people about the dangers and long term consequences of natural gas extraction through hydrofracking.   They are hosting an event on January 12th that is specifically geared for those citizens who are under 18 yrs of age. Families are also welcome.   

First there will be a screening of the film "Dear Governor Cuomo", 

The film premiered at the Woodstock Film Festival on October 11, 2012 and has begun a statewide tour of theaters, universities and high schools.

The goal of the varied participants in the film, many of whom had never met before, was to explain in clear terms the environmental, economic and health risks of fracking and to motivate people to rise up against the practice using a unique blend of music and message. The cord that bound them all was that they were first and foremost New Yorkers: New Yorkers Against Fracking.

The film will be followed by break out workshops focuses on sustainability and community organizing. 

Saturday, January 12th  12:00 - 3:00pm
Holiday Inn, Ithaca
