Heads up for the environmentally concerned...

I received this from Avaaz.org this morning and would like to think I can do a small bit to help improve the planet by spreading the message.

Please consider your response to the corporate take-over of democracy on the world stage...

Sounds great, but are you really prepared to spend A LOT more on everything, because this is what the result will be.

If that's what it takes for there to be a civilisation for my grandchildren, then Yes!!!

Good to hear it, because some people are quick to point out the issues with mining etc. while they naively look forward to getting their next ipad, iphone, (name your physical want here), etc. when that is what is needed to create those things.

I mean a start would be for those 750,000 who signed to sell their cars car and start pedaling everywhere. That is what is ultimately going to have a much greater impact than trying to stop oil subsidies.
