![]() | STOP that MEGA dairy STOP that MEGA dairy Just go to: http://www.stopthemegadairy.org for contact information. According to the USDA one cow produces as much waste as about 23 people.Thus a 13,000 head facility will produce waste equal to 299,000 people. This waste will be held in about 70 acres of open manure lagoons. These Mega Farms are coming to the mid west from California mostly due to CA tightening up EPA regulations and increasing fines.The mid west is lagging behind and they are taking advantage of this situation. They could be planning to construct in your area right now! Stop them before they get their foot in the door.Just make a quick easy call to the Governor. You dont have to ask for anyone.Just say the following: · Call the Office of the Governor (217-782-0244 or 312-814-2121), say you are calling to register a public comment, and state that you want Governor Blagojevich to know you are in opposition to the Jo Daviess County CAFO. (You actually don't need to state anything more, because the Office is already aware of the issue). Or...send a short email http://www.illinois.gov/gov/contactthegovernor.cfm They are voting on this issue soon in Springfield.If we don't get enough opposition calls,this Factory Farm will be approved. Help us put an end to state controlled,state sponsored factory farming. Subsidized big agribusiness without local control is a bad combination.Please help us to stop it.Thanks! PS-Support your local CSA program! |
