SUMMARY:Citizens' Picket for Climate and Energy Justice
DESCRIPTION:October 3-5\, 2016: join the CCAN-sponsored citizens’ picket line outside Governor McAuliffe’s downtown Richmond offices. Why three days? Because we have three major battles on our hands in Virginia where we need our Governor to stand with people\, not polluters: pipelines\, coal ash dumping\, and coastal flooding. Each day will feature the voices of Virginians on the front lines of these fights\, demanding that our Governor stand up to Dominion and other fossil fuel polluters. \nCome for one\, two\, or all three days for a lunchtime parade of colorful signs\, chanting\, and truth. We’ll ask Gov. McAuliffe to: 1) Reject state permits for fracked-gas pipelines; 2) Require Dominion and other utilities to permanently protect our waterways from toxic coal ash; 3) Commit to serious clean energy and adaptation solutions to keep our coastal communities above water. \nWHEN: Monday\, Oct. 3rd (pipeline focus)\, Tuesday\, Oct. 4 (coal ash focus)\, and Wednesday\, Oct. 5th (coast and climate focus). Meet at 11:30 a.m. for opening remarks; picket from noon – 1 p.m.\nWHERE: Meet at the Bell Tower on the Capitol Grounds (by the corner of N 9th St. & Bank St.). We’ll picket on the sidewalk outside the Governor’s offices at 1111 E Broad St\, Richmond\, VA.

SUMMARY:Hands Across Our Land
DESCRIPTION:Hands Across Our Land is a grassroots action designed to bring attention to the plight landowners and communities face at the hands of bullying\, multi-billion dollar corporations in their quest to build new fossil fuel infrastructure. We believe the rights of property ownership are fundamental to our democracy; that eminent domain should never be used for corporate gain and/or economic development. We believe the health\, safety and welfare of our families and communities are paramount.  We will not be bullied into submission by the energy industry which chooses greed over people\, shareholder profit over our environment. We will not become the energy industry’s sacrifice zones! \nInitiated in Nelson County by Free Nelson\, the first Hands Across Our Land actions were held on August 18\, 2015\, and thirty-five communities in 10 states participated\,.  The Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League (BREDL) became an integral partner with Free Nelson.  BREDL is now managing the annual Hands Across Our Land campaign\, and in 2016  plans to double\, perhaps even triple\, the 2015 participation in 2016. \nThis year Hands Across Our Land organizers have chosen to include communities who are facing the devastating affects being caused by coal ash contamination.  As energy companies rush to close their coal ash pounds\, billions of gallons of toxic coal ash wastewater are being dumped into our streams and rivers. These streams and rivers are the very same source for many water intake systems to municipal water supplies. The Environmental Protection Agency let us down when it refused to classify coal ash as a hazardous material knowing all the while it is radioactive and contains many heavy metals\, some known to be carcinogens. \nIn Nelson County\, actions will take place at the Stone Bridge on Route 250 on the Nelson County–Augusta County Line at 5:30 pm (click here for the event’s Facebook page) and at the Wingina Bridge on Route 56 on the Nelson County–Buckingham County line at 6:30 pm (click here for the event’s Facebook page). \nThere will also be an interfaith prayer service at 5:00 pm at Union Hill Baptist Church on Route 663 in Buckingham County.  Pastor Paul Wilson of Union Hill Baptist Church; Marion Kanour\, Rector of Grace Episcopal Church\, Massies Mill; and Swami Dayananda of the Yogaville community will be among those who will offer their prayers.  All are welcome to join this event. \nFurther information about other site-specific HAOL actions will be posted on the BREDL HAOL Web page.  Check there for details of an action near you.

DESCRIPTION:For over two years\, Virginians who face dangerous pipelines\, offshore oil rigs\, toxic coal ash\, rapidly rising tides\, and other pollution threats have appealed to Governor McAuliffe for real leadership. \nWe’ve sent thousands of petitions\, shown up at public events\, and invited the Governor to tour our threatened homes\, asking him to protect our land\, air and water\, and to be a champion of truly clean energy. \nOur voices have not been heard yet — so we’re bringing those voices together right at his doorstep. \nOn July 23\, 2016\, march to Governor McAuliffe’s house with hundreds of pipeline fighters\, river lovers\, faith leaders\, farmers\, climate activists\, moms and grandfathers. \nDemand real leadership for: \n\nSolar panels – not pipelines!\nClean water – not coal ash!\nClimate justice – not corporate control!\n\nTell Governor McAuliffe that his legacy rests on standing up to big corporations like Dominion and standing with Virginians fighting for a better\, brighter future. \nWHEN: Saturday\, July 23\, 2016\, from 12 noon – 3:00 p.m. Rally at noon. March to the Governor’s mansion at 1 p.m.\nWHERE: Richmond\, VA.

SUMMARY:Blow the Whistle on Dominion
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: Blow the Whistle on Dominion!\nWHERE: 5th and Tredegar\, across from Brown’s Island in Richmond\nWHEN: Saturday\, May 21\, 6:30 PM. We’ll “blow the whistle” at 8 PM.\nWHO: Concerned climate activists like you! \nEvery May\, Dominion spends big bucks sponsoring Riverrock\, “the nation’s premier” outdoor sports and music festival on Brown’s Island\, along the James River in downtown Richmond. \nBut this year\, the irony is especially outrageous. As Dominion sponsors “Riverrock\,” it is simultaneously fighting for a license to keep polluting Virginia’s most beloved rivers — the James\, the Potomac\, and the Elizabeth — with toxic coal ash waste left behind from decades of burning dirty coal. \nWe all enjoy a good festival — but we can’t let Dominion\, Virginia’s #1 climate polluter\, get away with using fun events like Riverrock to cover up its dirty energy and dirty politics. \nSaturday\, May 21\, 2016\, on the biggest night of Riverrock\, we’ll don yellow t-shirts\, grab our whistles\, and line the sidewalks leading to Brown’s Island. And right before the headline act comes on stage\, we’ll “blow the whistle” on Dominion.  We’ll “blow the whistle” at 8 PM.
