An open letter to the U.S. Senate

NO HJ res 140. Tourism more profitable than mining. Save BWCA

34 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

Save the Boundary Waters. Vote NO on HR140. The boundary waters are a stunning vast and precious area of unspoiled wilderness. Removing mining protections and opening them up to toxic permanent pollution from sulphide mining -- for the benefit of one Chilean magnate no less-- is a terrible idea. If you don't care about the environment then consider: the tourism revenues from the Boundary Waters area make more profit than the mining scheme that would ruin them for one- time polluting extraction. Do not destroy and desecrate the splendid wilderness that we hold in trust. No on HJ res 140
