We plan to urge the
town board of Amherst, NY to pass a local fracking ban to safeguard our
natural resources and health from the contamination that fracking brings
to communities. A ban on fracking as well as on fracking waste disposal and road spreading would protect Amherst residents from
exposure to harmful chemicals, airborne carcinogens, and contaminated
water.
But the only way to get the town board to pass a local ban is by making it happen ourselves -- which is possible and is something that over 150 municipalities across NY have done! All Amherst and Amherst-area residents are encouraged to join this coordinating meeting so we can map out the campaign and brainstorm next steps.
