ACTION ALERT!!
Earth Guardian Action Alert for Next Tuesday May 18th  
Youth are calling on you to rally and protect their future…

Hey Students and Friends, I am Xiuhtezcatl Roske-Martinez from Earth Guardians.   I am calling on you and other youth to join us at a City Council meeting to stop the use of harmful Pesticides and Herbicides in our Parks, on our Playing Fields and around our City. The dangers of these toxic chemicals that we are being exposed to are undeniable.  We play in this grass, we crawl on this grass, we lay on this grass, we fall down on this grass…directly coming into contact with these poisons. 50 youth came to a press conference that we organized last week and over 20 of them spoke out. 

The Daily Camera News did an article on our efforts.  The article went all the way to Washington DC where it was reprinted.  In the New York Times this week , the President’s Cancer Panel wrote an article that calls on America to rethink the way we confront cancer, including much more rigorous regulation of chemicals. The pressure to stop pesticides and herbicides in communities is on all over the United States...our City Council is taking notice.  But we are not out of HOT water yet…We need you to join us one more time in saying NO TO PESTICIDES AND HERBICIDES.  This is an issue that hurts us all, and there are natural alternatives to care for the EARTH.

 JOIN other Youth and Adults Tuesday May 18th  to speak out against pesticides and herbicides at the City Council Meeting in the Municipal Building on the SW corner of Canyon and Broadway in Boulder Colorado at 4:45 pm.  You can come and speak, or just carry a sign, the more that show up the better chance we will have in stopping this. 

Thank You
