He watched as his dog starved, suffering, and rotted alive

Molly didn't deserve this. This Dog Was So Neglected, She Had Maggots Eating Her Alive. Justice for Molly!      Sign Now      Arfin,   An animal hospital in Fort Myers, Florida recently admitted a dog in such horrific condition, they called in the local sheriff's office. A 16-year-old yellow lab named Molly was suffering immensely. Molly was emaciated, weak, and had "maggots crawling out of her rectum."   Maggots "feed on decaying organic matter," meaning that this poor pup's body was already decaying before she was even dead. It is all truly unthinkable.   The vet on the scene knew right away that, based on Molly's condition, the dog had been neglected for a long, long time. It's gut wrenching to think about how much Molly suffered before she was brought into the animal hospital. Ultimately, the veterinarians couldn't do anything for Molly but alleviate her suffering and mercifully euthanize her. While we don't know every detail of Molly's 16 years of life, the way she died tells us enough to know that her owner should be kept far, far away from animals for the rest of his own life. That's why we're calling on a ban on animal ownership for the entirety of this man's life. Sign the petition and demand justice for Molly! Thank you, Lauren Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Molly the Labrador retriever was brought into a Florida animal hospital emaciated and covered in maggots. Sign for justice.      Sign Now

Did Katy Perry sacrifice a protected Spanish dune ecosystem for fame?

A fragile ecosystem in Spain could be harmed — all so Katy Perry could film a music video. Katy Perry May Have Damaged a Precious Dune Ecosystem in Spain, Just to Film Her Latest Music Video Sign Now    Arfin,   Celebrities seem to think they can get away with anything when it comes to disrespecting the environment. Recently, it was Taylor Swift with her whole fleet full of private jets — and now it's Katy Perry, who filmed her recent 'Lifetimes' music video on protected, ecologically fragile dunes in Spain. S'Espalmador is a small, uninhabited island that is part of a Spanish natural park system. This has allowed a rich ecosystem to thrive there, being relatively undisturbed by humans. The area is known for its biological diversity, and the dunes there are carefully preserved. One section of the beach is specifically roped off, so that the public cannot access it or disrupt the precious flora and fauna. But that's exactly where Katy Perry and her team headed to film her latest music video. In doing so, they may have caused great damage to this special environment.   Authorities with Spain's Balearic Islands are currently investigating how Katy Perry and her team wound up on the dunes of S'Espalmador, apparently without the necessary authorizations. But Katy Perry's team has been pushing back and insisting they did nothing wrong. Katy Perry must show that she understands the importance of ecological conservation by owning up to her team's mistake, apologizing, and donating to conservation projects on the Spanish islands as recompense! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Demand that Katy Perry apologize and donate to conservation efforts. Sign the petition.      Sign Now

Six dead dogs were found in trash bags at an animal rescue

This situation cannot go unanswered. An Animal Rescue Owner Hid Six Dead Dogs in Trash Bags. Demand Justice!      Sign Now      Arfin,   At an animal rescue and sanctuary in Maine, a disturbing scene of neglect has come to light.

While this person will likely be charged for animal abuse, this tragic situation underscores a severe need for mental health support for a person who was able to treat animals like this. This situation cannot go unanswered. Sign this petition to urge authorities to implement a strict animal ownership ban on this person!  Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Animals deserve care and compassion, not neglect and cruelty. Sign the petition!      Sign Now

Supreme Court gutted EPA regulation powers - now the Air Force won't clean up its toxic mess

We need the EPA to be stronger, not weaker. The Air Force Is Refusing to Clean Up Its Water Pollution in the U.S., and It's Partially the Supreme Court's Fault Sign Now    Arfin,   The U.S. air force has been poisoning the drinking water supply in Tucson, Arizona, a city home to more than half a million people.   For decades, it has been poisoning water sources with volatile organic compounds and "forever chemicals" (also called PFAS) — to the point where a large area outside of Tucson was declared a "Superfund site." This designation is only used on the country's most polluted, most dangerous sites.   But now the Air Force is refusing to clean up its pollution. In fact, it's claiming that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has no right to hold the military accountable, after a recent Supreme Court decision gutted government agencies' regulatory abilities. In June, the current Court's right-wing majority overturned 40 years of previous court decisions and legal precedent to curtail the EPA and other agencies' abilities to do their jobs and keep the public safe. This will hurt prevent agencies from regulating important sectors like the environment, workplace safety, food safety, public health, and more. Everyone deserves to have safe, clean drinking water. That's why the EPA stepped in and demanded the Air Force clean up its toxic mess. But if the Air Force continues to refuse... what then?   This is why we need a federal law codifying the rights and powers of regulatory agencies, including the EPA. That is the only thing that can undo this nasty mess. Sign the petition to demand the U.S. Congress pass a law clearly strengthening and concretizing the EPA's authority! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Congress must pass legislation to strengthen the regulatory powers of the EPA and other agencies in order to protect the public.

Dog dumped by trash in 110-degree heat

Reba the dog suffered from heat stroke, seizure, and fluid in her lungs from overheating. This Dog Was Taped Inside a Bin and Dumped Outside in 110 Degree Weather, Left to Die Sign Now    Arfin,   It was 110 degrees Fahrenheit outside near Las Vegas. It was in that weather that someone discovered a dog taped inside a plastic storage bin, abandoned outside a giant dumpster like trash. The dog was on the verge of death, and rescuers spent hours trying to save her life. She had suffered from heat stroke and a seizure. On top of that, she could barely breathe anymore.   Inside the storage bin, the heat was building and building and poor Reba was trying to pant the overheating away, but she couldn't breathe hard enough to counteract the temperatures. She began trying harder and harder to breathe — leading her lungs to fill with fluid. Luckily, veterinarians have able to keep Reba alive, though her outlook is still uncertain. Las Vegas police are investigating who trashed Reba and taped her up to die in blistering heat. But we need to make sure whoever this person is, is kept away from animals in the future! Sign the petition to demand that authorities ban them from owning, living, or working with animals!   Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Reba the dog was on the verge of death, and even now, she's not 100% out of the woods. Sign the petition.      Sign Now
