How, in three to five easy steps you can help to turn the issue of introducing a 500m Buffer Zone around future Opencast Coal Sites in England  into a National Campaign and bring English law into line with policies already operating in Wales and Scotland

CAN WE ALL HELP START A WIDER NATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO SUPPORT ANDREW BRIDGEN’S 500m BUFFER ZONE BILL?

Members of a Campaign Group call 38 Degrees have started a petition to see if there is enough support out there for a national campaign to support the 500m Buffer Zone Bill. It works like this

You have to register to become a member by sending them your email address through this web page:

http://38degrees.org.uk/campaigns

Once you are registered you are awarded 10 votes to distribute across the various suggested campaigns that people are suggesting 38 Degrees should adopt. The 500m Buffer Zone Bill campaign suggestion is one of these.

 The most you can award for any one suggestion is 3 votes. Making a comment is not enough. You have to click on the vote icon at the top of the page to register you vote. Your own page should then tell you how many votes you have left. If it still reads 10 votes you have yet to vote.

if you have not yet had a look at this site or you have yet to vote then please follow the links below:
