Is This My Punishment?

Judge Janet Washington took a sip of her coffee as she read the messages that were starting to pile up on her desk. Since the murder of her son, she wasn’t on top of her game. She wasn’t returning calls in a timely manner. She missed a few important meetings entirely and arrived late at others. People who felt her compassion in the past, now felt her discontent. She wasn’t sleeping well and had gained ten pounds from eating junk food throughout the night. People gave her a pass due to feeling sorry for her losing her only child, but she knew it was only a matter of time before that grace period was over.

Save Ohio Parks statement on court’s decision to dismiss appeal

Save Ohio Parks is disappointed that our appeal of the Oil and Gas Land Management Commission’s (OGLMC) decision to approve fracking lease nominations in our state parks and wildlife areas was dismissed. But we will continue to advocate for the protection and future of our public lands and public trust.

Ohio statute says it is state policy to use our natural resources responsibly. There is nothing responsible about how water, one of our most precious natural resources, is used in the fracking process. Fracking permanently pulls millions of gallons of water out of our water supply, laces it with toxic, cancer-causing chemicals, injects this mix at high pressure deep into the earth, pulls it back up, and then injects the radioactive waste that results from it into another series of wells—wells that can leak and endanger our water supply.
