If you’re unhappy with how the President is handling our country, or even your governor or mayor, I’m going to put these links to these websites for templates on how to write a letter to a government official. Complain to them and let them know that you don’t like how they’re doing things. And maybe suggest what they should do instead. If anything it’ll slow things down so anything that they’ll try to do negatively impact the country and our people will have more time to be counteracted.

We unfortunately have two proposed data centers that are near me. Mind you our RIVER, yes RIVER, is fully and completely dry this side of a particular lake for over 6 MONTHS a year, again HALF OF THE YEAR AT LEAST our RIVER is DRY as in NO WATER and we have 2 proposed data centers. One is unfortunately in another state so I can't really send anyone letters but I'm at least sending letters to the ones I can. If anyone wants to send letters about data centers local to you here's what I'm sending please fill in as applicable or change what you need to.
Dear Mayor/Governor/Senator _____,
As a citizen of _____ County, I am writing to express my concern over the DATA CENTER proposal. My concerns are based on the following:
1) NOISE – data center noise which can reach a 2.5 mile perimeter impacting homes and quality of life.
2) ENVIRONMENTAL and ENERGY– increased light pollution, higher carbon emissions, strain on local infrastructure and resources, higher utility bills, diesel exhaust from backup generators, ionized water from cooling systems, disrupting wildlife behaviors and nesting sites, and raising the average temperature by 6 degrees at minimum.
3) HEALTH – the stress of this possible project is impacting an entire community, noise pollution can lead to cardiovascular issues, increased stress and anxiety, sleep disturbances and impaired cognitive function.
We really cannot afford to lose any water to such a wasteful endeavor. Water is a precious resource here in New Mexico. We have not had a decent amount of water in decades. The land is so dry that we no longer have worms in the soil even. Our river is dry for months at a time. There is no amount of water that can be spared for such a disastrous and wasteful project that carries so many negatives. It will not improve life in New Mexico and will only cause damage to our environment, wildlife, and people. Please make moves to block and defund this terrible project.
I truly believe you all want what is in the best interest of our community and for our citizens which would include prioritizing actual human beings, human life, and our beloved native wildlife above artificial intelligence which should not even be called intelligence, a more accurate name would fall along the lines of plagiarizing auto-regurgitating information program.
I intend to send this letter to every national, state, and local policymaker whose email I can find— as well as handwritten letters, mailed to my direct elected officials. Please feel free to use this letter as a template!
To [insert name here]:
I am writing to you as a constituent of the City of Aurora, Arapahoe County, Colorado. But more importantly, I write as one voice amid the multitudes who are marching in the streets to demand justice for the murder of George Floyd by former officer Derek Chauvin, on May 25, 2020.
In Colorado, citizens are protected from the use of excessive force on the part of “peace” officers by CRS Title § 18-1-707 and § 18-8-803. And yet, every day, I see more testimonials of police departments across the US severely wounding protesters and bystanders with “rubber bullets.” Of tear gassing. The DPD have even fired upon emergency medical providers— in war, this is a violation of the Geneva Convention. So tell me: why are the police at war with us?
We, the people, demand the immediate demilitarization of the police. As a policymaker, you have the responsibility to produce, support, and enact legislation which protects your constituents. We demand:
1. A complete ban on the use of knee holds and choke holds as an acceptable practice for police officers. CRS § 18-1-707 (2.5)(a) currently permits the use of choke holds under some circumstances. This policy is unacceptable and cannot stand.
2. That officers who execute citizens be prosecuted, without delay.
3. Mandatory reviews following the use of lethal or non-lethal force against public gatherings, including protests and “riots.” These reviews are already instituted for officer-involved shootings, and must be expanded to other uses of force against the public.
4. Banning the use of “rubber bullets” and other “less lethal rounds” by Colorado police, which cause trauma, hemorrhages, permanent blindness, disability, and loss of life.
5. Banning the use of tear gas against civilians under any circumstances. Tear gas is an indiscriminate weapon which causes respiratory failure, chemical burns, blindness, contusions, skull fractures, and loss of life. The use of tear gas has been banned in warfare since 1929; Its continued use by the police is an appalling violation of our civil liberties, and cannot stand.
6. That police be defunded and demilitarized. Instead: create, develop, and fund existing resources based in de-escalation, to be called upon in place of law enforcement. These resources shall reduce the need for police involvement in non-violent situations such as: mental health crises, domestic disturbances, and large public gatherings.
In the coming days, I beg you— act! Dismantle laws which enable police brutality. Replace them with legislation which actively values and uplifts Black lives. From Minneapolis to Denver, in my hometown and every town across the United States: listen to the voices of the Black Americans who demand justice, and shield their bodies from harm.
Hey Wanderers! I’m really late in posting this! But the super awesome, wherefancytakesme worked extremely hard on creating a SaveWOY letter template for you all to use to send to Disney! I’ve had a read through it and it’s one of the best I’ve seen! They’ve worked so hard on it and it’s so informative about the whole SaveWOY campaign!
If we could get a load of these mailed out to Disney, that would be great! This can also tie in with @cerise-the-traveling-artist‘s July letter project!
Go give wherefancytakesme lots of love for working so hard on this and being generous enough to provide us with this awesome template letter!
You can find the Disney addresses here.
You can download the letter template as a Microsoft word file here.
I’ll also paste it under the Read-more below but be warned as it’s quite long.
Greetings, Disney.
I am a fan of Wander Over Yonder, writing to express my feelings as to why the series deserves to be finished the way it was intended. About a year has passed since the second season ended, and in that time, much has happened concerning fans of the show, old and new. I think it would interest you to know of the fans' efforts to keep Wander Over Yonder alive, and to try to someday bring it back for at least one more season.
Over the years of this generation, a trend of reviving series seems to be taking effect. It is not uncommon for fans to work hard at bringing back the shows they love that were ended before their time. The 13-year-old Samurai Jack was revived for a final season due to fans' support. The 14-year-old Invader Zim was revived for a comic series, and now a tv movie after its fans kept demanding continuation. The 13-year-old Hey Arnold! now has its intended finale in production, since people have been supporting it for so long. Not to mention the series that have been saved before true cancellation, such as Harvey Beaks, as well as Disney's own Future-Worm! and Kim Possible.
With all this being written, it should not be surprising that people who love Wander Over Yonder have come together to join the revival trend and save the wonderful show they all love.
In just one year, the campaign to save Wander Over Yonder-- or "SaveWOY", as it's most commonly referred to-- has made incredible progress.
Almost immediately, when the cancellation of the series was announced, a few fans began a petition to show to Disney how many people wish for WOY to continue (https://www.change.org/p/walt-disney-encourage-disney-to-make-wander-over-yonder-season-3). In only one day, it reached its goal of 1,500 signatures. In one weekend, it reached 4,000. By this year, it now has over 42,000 signatures. This is more even than the petition which Gravity Falls fans are using in an effort to get said series on DVD. Not only that, but a map has been made to show the support of fans around the world (https://www.scribblemaps.com/maps/view/SaveWOY_Petition_V2/S9qbMCKcUL). This does not include the several other petitions that have been made for the SaveWOY campaign
Fans of Wander Over Yonder have made many pages through which anyone may seek information on the efforts to bring the show back, including, but not limited to, a Tumblr account (http://savewoy.tumblr.com/), a Twitter account (https://twitter.com/savewoy), a Facebook account (https://www.facebook.com/groups/488409891359644/), a Deviantart account (http://savewoy.deviantart.com/), a fan Wikipedia (http://savewoy.wikia.com/wiki/SaveWOY_Wikia), and a page on savedisneyshows.org (http://savewoy.savedisneyshows.org/).
Things such as the aforementioned are only the beginning. WOY fans have created several projects in order to express love for this series, such as videos still in the works that contain a collaboration of fans' messages and art from around the world, a mass of letters for DisneyXD executives that contain 200 reasons to save Wander Over Yonder (http://peepsqueak.tumblr.com/tagged/200rtsw), a SaveWOY raffle (https://alicia-lvn.tumblr.com/tagged/raffle), a 30-day email project to send SaveWOY emails to DisneyXD executives (http://peepsqueak.tumblr.com/tagged/email-campaign), and a charity project to send holiday cards to children in the hospital (http://peepsqueak.tumblr.com/tagged/savewoy-holiday-card-project). Incidentally, a new project has been made, where people all over the globe plant little flags at popular sites with the character Lord Hater's face on them as a fun game to pretend to conquer the planet earth for said character, although the true motive is to have fun while making another map of worldwide WOY fans (https://operationforce.tumblr.com/).
Fans not only collaborate with projects, but also meet up with eachother in celebration of the series we love. A potluck picnic was arranged (http://savewoy.tumblr.com/post/152888374823/savewoy-good-morningafternoonevening), and additionally, every month, Wander Over Yonder fans on Tumblr do Secret Santa-esque exchanges with one another (http://savewoygiftexchange.tumblr.com/).
There are things we continue to do as well.
Fans are still sending letters and emails to Disney, as well as a flash-drive containing updates of the progress of our campaign.
Every month on Tumblr, and from time to time on Twitter, the hashtag #Wander Over Yonder trends. This is because an effort has been made to show our love for the series every monthly anniversary of its second season finale (http://peepsqueak.tumblr.com/Trending%20Twenty-Seventh). Additionally, fans have created certain days of the week to make posts about Wander Over Yonder regularly (http://savewoy.wikia.com/wiki/Wander_Wednesdayhttp://savewoy.wikia.com/wiki/Season_3_Saturdayhttp://savewoy.wikia.com/wiki/SaveWOY_Sunday).
The "villain leaderboard" from season two is still 'updated' by fans every month as a way to keep the show's spirit alive.
Whenever a page on Thunderclap is made, not only is more than the required support gotten, but ends up in the top five of Thunderclap pages that week.
Even in addition to all this, there will still be more to come, and things not mentioned here; Wander Over Yonder fans love the series and will always continue to keep it in our hearts!
It is not only the fandom of Wander Over Yonder that rallies support for the series. It is quite apparent that simply anyone who enjoys it wants to see it end the way the WOY crew wanted. Videos from popular people come out more and more about the quality, and the chance WOY deserves (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD30N7h1pyZU5YV-AYBWRwyFm-sFZJgtb). A show with such positivity and joy and fun has helped countless lives when one simply looks for people's takeaway, online or anywhere.
Furthermore, it is quite apparent that Wander Over Yonder in general is something deserving of praise, and of more chance than it was given.
Wander Over Yonder has not only been nominated for-- and won-- several Annie Awards for its character design, animation, and overall quality as a series; but has in fact been Emmy-nominated for its overall quality as a short-format animated series. Not to mention, Wander Over Yonder had gained far more attention than ever once season two premiered-- already after its cancellation. Moreover, after the middle of season two-- the airing of the episode "My Fair Hatey"-- an even bigger boom of fans came to realize what a fantastic show WOY is, not even including the fact that the song within the episode, "I'm the Bad Guy", is nearing 5 million views on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdEo_t-iVbM&spfreload=10), more views than any other Wander Over Yonder video has ever received. It is clear that even people who haven't watched the show love the character Lord Dominator, and would love to see more of her. Since the current end of the series, more people than ever before are coming out to say how much they love it, and moreover wishing it hadn't ended with a mystery left unsolved. Now that the Wander Over Yonder reruns have come back, perhaps the viewership numbers will be surprisingly much higher than before.
I thank you for taking your time to read this lengthy letter, and I hope you can see that my message is one that sincerely hopes you can take all that is written above into consideration, and hopefully take into consideration as well the amount that Wander Over Yonder means to so many people, the efforts they have made to spread awareness of the show, and the hope everyone has found from others making efforts just the same and having success come out of it.
I hope that the tone in which all of us fans have been contacting the people at Disney means something, and that it helps our message to be seen more clearly and understandingly.
With this letter, and with all that people have done to make their feelings known, I hope you might begin to consider that maybe the show people love so much could be allowed at least one more chance.
While I have a post talking about letter templates for the higher government in the USA here, I’ve been thinking about letters to the local government. Mainly due to one of the Solarpunk discord servers I’m in so shout out to them!
Anyways I’ve looked and found a few websites that have some templates on them. Check them out and hopefully they’ll help you out! In order to make change we gotta do it not only in the higher level but also the lower level. And sometimes the changes that happen closest to you can help change that’s furthest from you.

For anyone in the U.S., here's a letter template to tell Biden to evacuate Afghans. I recommend changing up the wording or even writing your own email if you can to lower chances of it getting filtered out and to better reflect actions that should be taken (i.e. specify that "Designate Temporary Protected Status for Afghanistan and halt all deportations of Afghan nationals" should be permanent).
Here's an e-mailed update from Amnesty International about the attack outside the Kabul airport:
Today, multiple attacks were launched outside of the Kabul airport. The media is reporting dozens of people are dead, including children — and we have no official count on the number of injured.
This escalation of violence sends a clear message to the Biden administration:
Afghanistan is an incredibly dangerous place for vulnerable people — and we must do everything in our power to urge the Biden administration to evacuate as many as possible immediately.
If the United States ends its evacuation procedures on August 31st or sooner, thousands of human rights defenders, including women’s rights advocates, journalists, religious minorities, and other vulnerable people WILL be left behind. Urge President Biden to negotiate an extension and evacuate as many people as possible.
As we feared, reports of retaliatory killings, abductions, and crackdowns on freedom of expression are surfacing across Afghanistan. According to on-the-ground reports, Taliban fighters are going door-to-door to search for journalists and human rights defenders. And in at least one instance, killed a family member and injured another when they were unable to locate the person they were looking for.
Vulnerable Afghans are bearing the brunt of this violence and reprisal attacks.
After assuring the international community that the rights of women would be protected, the Taliban recently announced that women journalists would have to cease working. In at least two incidents across the country, the Taliban violently dispersed crowds of Afghans exercising their right to protest.
These crackdowns combined with an escalation of violence that has resulted in civilian casualties mean we MUST ramp up the pressure on President Biden to do everything he can to evacuate people fearing for their safety.
Right now, Biden is under pressure to halt evacuations. That’s why we need your voice — because thousands of lives could depend on our advocacy. Demand Biden take action for vulnerable Afghans.
