We, the undersigned residents of the Islip Township, appeal to the Islip Town Board to fulfill its commitment to the local community in protecting our economic and environmental viability by not only complying with Governor Cuomo’s Clean Energy Standard, but exceeding its expectations. We call upon the Islip Town Board to set an official goal for being powered by 100% renewable electricity by the year 2030. We request this be done in order to reduce energy costs, encourage job growth, preserve local ecosystems, slow the rise of global temperatures that cause climate change and we ask that the Islip Town Board also take into account the environmental impact of all of its decisions in any policy made, and consider the example that they set for both other townships and the upcoming generations.

I have been reviewing the testimonials left on this page and the commitment to our environment remains clear. These perspectives are currently being compiled into a formal document for the upcoming Town Board presentation.

We need renewable energy or we are going to kill our earth. This is the first step for a cleaner future
It is extremely important that we go all renewable to save the planet because we can't sustain the way we can consume for much longer. We have to make sure that we get this petition signed by everyone!!!
Our environment needs a cleaning before it's too late.
Cleaner energy means cleaner air and cleaner water!
Our future is important !!!!!
Let's be a standard for the rest of the towns on LI and in the USA.
Hooray for environmental protection!!!!
