Maine Partners for Cool Communities

PSR Maine is a founding member of Maine Partners for Cool Communities, a grassroots organizing effort that allows individual citizens to effectively advocate for their town or city to actively reduce its carbon emissions. As of the end of 2008, 50 Maine towns have joined the Cool Communities movement. We are joined in this project by the Maine Chapter of the Sierra Club, the Maine Council of Churches and the American Lung Association of Maine.

Advocacy

PSR Maine is a member of the Maine Global Warming Action Coalition and is contributing to the writing of the Maine State Dept. of Environmental Protection's climate adaptation recommendations to be presented to Legislators and Governor Baldacci in early 2010.

  • Health Professionals: Tell Congress That Maine Deserves Safer Chemicals

    For the first time in over 30 years we have the chance to reform our country’s chemical safety laws, and by doing so reduce the exposure to commonly used chemicals that have been linked to health problems such as Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, diabetes, asthma and obesity.

  • Call Congress to demand safer chemicals

    Current laws are not protecting us from toxic chemical exposures. Tell your congressperson to put health first by ensuring that chemicals are tested for safety before they are allowed on the market.
