1. Shade Sail for Play Equipment at Issy Wyner Reserve 
The play equipment at Issy Wyner Reserve, Balmain is not shaded by surrounding trees, nor is it protected in any way from harmful UVR.
A shade sail would allow children to use the play equipment during the hours of 10am and 3pm - when the UVR are the most harmful.
2. Shade Cloth for New Play Equipment at O'Connor Reserve
The new play equipment at O'Connor Reserve, Rozelle is not shaded by surrounding trees, nor is it protected in any way from harmful UVR.
A shade cloth would allow children to use the play equipment during the hours of 10am and 3pm - when the UVR are the most harmful.
3. South Pasadena Schools Need Shade
We are a group of concerned parents at Marengo Elementary School who want to demonstrate to our school board the urgent need to provide shade on our campus and other schools in the South Pasadena Unified School District.
Several large, shade-giving old trees are being cut along Besant Avenue in Besantnagar in the name of decongestion of traffic. So far two trees outside Olcott Memorial School have been cut and one more gulmohar and two tamarind trees have been targeted by the Chennai Corporation to be cut in the coming days.
These trees are more than 20 years old and have been providing shade and safety for lot of commuters on the road as well as for the chidren of Olcott Memorial School.
So for whose convenience are they being cut ?
1. Besantnagar residents are fully aware of the location of these trees along and on the road and the majority have been adjusting to their presence. The trees are well indicated by large signs along the avenue. The warning signage can be further improved
2. These trees are more than 20 years old and have been providing shade and safety for lot of commuters on the road as well as for the chidren of Olcott Memorial School.
3. . Rash driving is rampant, particularly on Elliots Beach, 5 th Avenue and Besant Avenue and particularly on weekends. These trees provide a good check to rash driving. If they are removed and the roads are widened, instances of rash driving will only increase, making it difficult for local residents .
4. The shade provided by these trees makes the whole road very cool thus making it a favourite spot for early morning walkers and joggers especially senior citizens .
5. These trees are home to many birds and insects and we would be robbing them of their habitat if the trees are cut.
5. Lancome Le Lipstique in Natural Mauve!
I am starting this petition to send to the President, CEO of L'Oreal USA (Lancome) in an attempt to bring back the discontinued Natural Mauve Le Lipstique. I have written them several times regarding this request and they claim that the shade was discontinued because there were not enough purchases to justify keeping it. I know a lot of people who happen to love this shade and it's the only lip pencil I use so I am hoping to get enough signatures so that they will reconsider. If you agree, please sign this petition!
