Connected by WaterFlorida springs and rivers need protection – protection they are not getting from water management districts, the state, or the federal government. On February 1st, the Center for Earth Jurisprudence hosted Rights of Springs – a conference on protecting our waters featuring scientists, filmmakers, and legal minds from Florida and across the country.

One of the main topics at the conference was the challenge of keeping our waters flowing at healthy levels. Scientists, agencies, and citizens have warned of falling water flows and levels for years. Forty years ago, Florida passed a law to establish minimum flows and levels for our waters, but the law has been poorly enforced and weakened over the years. In fact, no minimum flows and levels have been set at all for larger, “magnitude 1” springs. So much of Florida’s water is already allocated to consumptive use permits for industrial and municipal users that fixing the problem under current and proposed water policy could prove quite challenging and expensive.

Our water budget is like our personal financial budget. We must live within our means. Right now, Florida’s water credit card is maxed out, the checkbook is overdrawn, and we’re about to lose our job. What to do?

In addition to existing state and federal regulations, many local communities around the country are working to provide greater environmental protection to their citizens. According to one speaker, Mari Margil from the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund,

three dozen cities around the U.S. have passed environmental Bills of Rights to protect their communities from threats like the destruction of ecosystems from fracking, water pollution, industrial agriculture, and the draining of aquifers. Barnstead, New Hampshire was the first community in the nation to ban the corporatization of water withdrawals. However, these rights still face an uphill battle, particularly here in Florida. In recent years, Governor Rick Scott and his allies have worked to wrest environmental oversight from local governments by limiting their ability to regulate nitrogen and phosphorus pollution, interfering with the regional governing boards that oversee water use in the state, and moving to prevent local governments from inspecting septic systems.

It’s time for us to find our voice…to stand up and say no. According to Rob Williams, attorney for CEJ, current policy has it backwards, asking only “what is the least amount of water we can keep to maintain the environment? And what is the most amount of pollution we can allow and still have water health?” Rather, we should be asking what it will take to restore and sustain the health and beauty of Florida for all Floridians. We have the right to protect what is ours – the lands and waters we were granted under the Florida Constitution. Ultimately, we must learn how to share – because we are all connected by water.

Suncoast Sierra Club Events & Happenings:

What is the TPP?

The massive Forward on Climate rally recently held in Washington bears a significant relationship to the ongoing negotiations for a trade agreement spanning the pacific rim, but pointedly excluding China.

The Obama administration is in the closing stages of negotiating an agreement with 10 other countries, with others hoping to join, that dwarfs any previous U.S. trade agreement since we joined the World Trade Organization. It’s bigger than NAFTA (the North America Free Trade Agreement) and it now includes both Mexico and Canada. Its environmental, social and political significance will probably be greater than the WTO, as the expansion of the scope of that organization has stalled.

The Sierra Club has chosen to make energy a key element in its deep concern about the emerging Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement.! Currently, the U.S. enjoys a surplus of natural gas, which has driven down producer prices.

The Trans-Pacific PartnershipExport of that surplus is seen by the industry as the solution, as they are in a “use it or lose it” bind. Currently, export of natural gas is tightly controlled by the federal Department of Energy, but if the TPP agreement goes through, its likely provisions would prevent the U.S. from such restrictive enforcement rules, much to the joy of the industry. Suddenly, any restrictions on petroleum exports could vanish, and many Pacific-rim countries would be more than happy to buy what we couldn’t refuse to sell. The same situation would apply to other hydro-carbons, some of which, such as coal, we have in abundance.

Secrecy is the by-word with the TPP negotiations. Even members of Congress that will be called upon to vote on the agreement have been given no better access than the general public. However, some 600 or so corporations that have signed non-disclosure agreements are privy to what’s going on and can have input on the final result. One critical section,on investor protection, was leaked, so we have every

reason to believe that the NAFTA model is being followed throughout.

The benefits to trans-national corporations are enormous. For one thing, it would be a way of bypassing all those pesky environmental and legal restrictions: The system under these agreements, of which NAFTA is the best known, allows corporations to sue nation-states for actions that they feel are contrary to their right to profit. The expression in trade terms is “tantamount to expropriation.” These cases are referred to one of the international dispute settlement organizations, and will be heard by, typically, three trade lawyers, the results of which are generally binding. History has been most favorable to corporations. And entering the fray are groups looking for big payouts from successful arbitration. Success means payouts for everyone but the usually poor nation at the brunt of the assault. Even when they win, a nation will be left with a large tab for legal expenses, money that isn’t going into it health and education system.

The budget is one of the most important policy decisions in our local government. It is the process through which we prioritize our shared resources for basic services that keep clean water in our homes, police on our streets, and books in our libraries.

In a healthy democracy, the budget should represent the priorit-ies of the community and serve the interests of all residents. The People’s Budget Review was created to open the door to this all-important process by providing the tools and informa-tion necessary to offer meaningful input on decisions that directly affect the quality of our lives.

We believe that nobody better understands the needs of our residents than the residents themselves. That’s why we are going door to door, into public places, and using social media to bring your ideas and priorities directly to elected officials.

Residents of the Tampa Bay area love where they live. The area is flush with cultural and educational institutions, its beaches consistently rank among the best in the U.S., and the region boasts an extensive network of parks. In 2008,!Forbes!ranked Tampa as the 5th-best outdoor city in the country.

But one area where the region lags is public transportation. "The Tampa Bay region is the last major metro area in the U.S. without a multi-modal transportation system," says Sierra Club organizer Phil Compton, below. "As a result, we're too dependent on cars, making tailpipe emissions the primary local source of carbon and ozone." Compton says the Tampa-St. Pete metro area suffers from chronic traffic congestion, some of the nation's longest commute times, Florida's worst air quality, the country's highest proportional expense for transportation, and its most dangerous streets for bicycles and pedestrians.

Enter the Sierra Club's Green Transportation for Tampa Bay campaign, which scored a major victory at the end of February when the Pinellas County Commission voted 5-1 to place transit funding on next year's ballot. The initiative would raise the local sales tax by one cent to fund the construction and operation of a new light-rail line while also immediately doubling the frequency and routes of bus service throughout the entire county.

Immediately after the Pinellas vote, county commissioners in neighboring Hillsborough County scheduled a transit summit for its March meeting to get busy on a similar transit initiative. The Hillsborough County Commission voted unanimously to make mass transit a priority. A Mass Transit Summit will be scheduled in the near future with all the stakeholders on both sides of the bay involved.

The events represent a 180-degree swing from 2010, when anti-transit forces

defeated a transit referendum in Hillsborough County. But since then, Sierra Club activists with the Suncoast and Tampa Bay groups, along with progressive ally Awake Pinellas, have tirelessly promoted a transportation vision for the region, showing up and speaking at hearings, lobbying decision-makers, educating the public, and mobilizing support for transit. Their efforts are now paying off."The movement in Pinellas County to create the first light rail in the area can be

the beginning of an enormous regional transit system," Compton says. "Thanks to the Sierra Club's campaign, there is now reason to hope that decades of delay and defeat will end next year for this region of 2.2 million people who suffer daily from one of America's worst urban transit systems. Many people thought this turn of events was unlikely after the events of 2010, but the Sierra Club team really turned things around."

Transit naysayers had previously dominated the conversation at meetings

Green Transportation for Tampa Bay

...the Tampa-St. Pete metro area suffers from

chronic traffic congestion, some of the nation's longest

commute times, Florida's worst air

quality, the country's highest proportional

expense for transportation, and its most dangerous streets

for bicycles and pedestrians.

of the county's transit authority board and county commission, but that ended with a critical meeting in June 2012, now called "the turning point for the future of transportation for the Gulf Coast of Florida" by the transit authority chair. Plans by Tea Party-supported commissioners to eliminate light rail from the county's transit plan were derailed as Sierra Club activists and allies packed the house that day and at all subsequent meetings when decisions were made on whether to move the process forward. Awake Pinellas and the Sierra Club worked together over an 8-month period to create a huge turnout at every important transit meeting, overwhelming the efforts of transit opponents who sought to prevent green transportation initiatives from moving forward.

The pro-transit movement in the Tampa Bay area received a boost in December with the creation of Connect Tampa Bay, a new transportation education and advocacy group that is now working hand-in-hand with the Sierra Club to promote a 21st-century transit vision for the region and turn that vision into reality at the ballot box.

While plans for rail, rapid bus and 'complete streets' transportation improvements have been discussed for decades," Compton says, "it took the involvement of Sierra Club's Green Transportation for Tampa Bay campaign to organize the support needed for leaders to find the political will to finally move these plans into action. And it's time. Most people want this to move forward. They want the same choices as people have elsewhere in America."

If you would like to help Sierra Club in our efforts to maximize Green Transportation in the Tampa Bay area, please contact Phil Compton - [email protected] or 727-824-8813 x303.

Alexis Meyer, Associate Organizing Representative, Florida Panther Critical Habitat Campaign

We are reaching a tipping point in Florida as we run out of conservation lands, and our leaders are failing us. Our wildlife is being hemmed in my subdivisions and strip malls, and cut off (and cut down) by massive highways and poor road design, with 2012 a record breaking year for panther deaths: the most cats killed by cars. Florida Forever, the State’s conservation land acquisition program may be abolished by the Florida Legislature. And on top of it, the Florida Department of Transportation is looking to put even more super highways throughout Florida.

We have the ability to decide how we want Florida to grow. By instilling smart growth principles in our management plans, ensuring that conservation lands are protected, and that wildlife can safely traverse our state, we have the opportunity to set Florida up to be a state that can juggle the complexities of growth and development while retaining the wild aspect that so many people value in living and visiting here.

Please join Suncoast Sierra Club on Thursday, April 18 - 6pm at the Ltrain (900 Central Avenue, St Pete) for the film "Broken Tail: A Tiger's Last Stand" and find out how the tiger in India and the panther in Florida face some of the same challenges.

The US has paid out over $3 billion to foreign investors under U.S. trade and investment pacts, while more than $14 billion in claims are pending under such deals, primarily targeting environmental, energy, and public health policies.

Australia has in recent years stood firm against agreements that allow arbitration. Unfortunately, their older agreements did allow for this, and they are now fighting “big tobacco” over regulations requiring generic packaging of cigarettes, include graphic descriptions of the effect of the use of the product.

Other areas of special interest to corporations include restrictive rules on medicines and copyrights – the intellectual property regime. The object is to limit the use of generic medicine. Australia, for one, has a progressive health system, providing low cost medicine to its people. And many of the other participants in these negotiations are ill prepared to pay the high cost of brand medicines.

The Obama administration has promised to seek approval for this agreement as early as fall of this year. In order to pass, a special law known as “fast track” must be in place, allowing only an up or down vote in Congress. Congress seems ready to give him what he wants. So our first job is to defeat fast track. Don’t allow it to pass through Congress.

We’re not opposed to trade, but it needs to be Clean, Green and Fair.Right now, you should contact your Senators and ask them to oppose any move toward fast tracking consideration of this treaty. For more information and links to other sources, see http://nycsierraclub.org/tpp-resources/. Find your senators’ contact information at http://www.contactingthecongress.org.
