> 1)  Stand with about 300 other cities that were asking the Army Corp of Engineers Not to grant the pipeline easement to go under the Missouri River at SR. Waiting for a decision in next few days.
> 2) Others in our ecodharma group protested at Wells Fargo bank to bring awareness to the banks investment in the pipe line.

> 
> Our advice is to get involved at any level in your community’s  on local environmental issues. The faster we can get thru the transition to alternative energy sources the healthier we and the planet will be.
> 
> What we’ve witnessed at Standing Rock  after 3 visits and daily contact is the militarization of the state in support of the energy companies against peaceful water protectors.

> Remedies: 
> •non violent direct action at the sites
> • dis- investing in Banks that invest in these activities
> • class action suits/
> • promoting alternative non fossil energy sources locally
> • big time reduction in fossil fuel usage in our personal lives ( conservation). 
> 
> Stay safe. Be alert and resilient,
