Expectation levels are too low in our ability to take back our democracy. We must put issues into the democratic process - not corporate. You only have to take a look at Rochester Issues to get an idea of the breath of environmental concerns that we have just in Rochester, and compare them with what you read, see, and hear in our local media.

Compare the environmental information you find on the Internet, with what you get on TV, radio, and your local newspaper.
