Let's focus on big picture

Trading our wild Alaska salmon for coal to ship to Asia would be a terrible mistake. It is a short-term fix for jobs and money and a forever change to the environment and Alaska salmon. We need to look at the big picture, not just what is around the corner. Please.

Gov. Parnell gave us his word to not do this. Let's hope he will prove to be different than most other politicians and actually keep his word.

"Clean energy" in our future is so important, so important, let's focus on that. Thank you.
