    There is a grassroots environmental issue affecting New York right now. An organization called United for Action and various other groups and residents in the West Village have filed a Notice of Appeal against Spectra Energy and ConEd regarding the introduction of a new, 30-inch high-pressure gas pipeline into their densely populated neighborhood.

    Here is what they are doing:

    They created this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av_opE1-Lpk&feature=player_embedded ) and have asked that it be shared.
    Asked that you donate to the legal fund for the lawsuit against Spectra Energy.
    If you live in or near New York City, you can get tickets for a film screening and fundraiser on May 8, 2013. There's a free talk about radon and public health on May 14, 2013.
    If you live in New York City, you can also write, email, call, tweet, or send a Facebook message to your elected officials.
