Hello, The climate movement is about to take a giant step forward: The EPA has proposed the first national standard to limit carbon pollution. This is exciting: And we have a petition for you to show your support. http://forms.climaterealityproject.org/push-button-save-planet-taf Carbon pollution is causing the climate crisis. That weird, dirty weather you’ve been having – blame carbon pollution. Where does this pollution come from? The answer is simple: 40% of all carbon pollution in the United States comes from power plants. If this rule goes into effect, no new dirty, climate-change-causing power plants will be built. So, now that you’re up to speed, what do you say? Will you tell the EPA you support the first-ever limit on carbon pollution? It’s easy. Just sign our petition to show your support: http://forms.climaterealityproject.org/push-button-save-planet-taf Thank you! |

Our internet is at risk
Hi there! Our internet is at risk, and I need you to join me in protecting it. Right now, a closed UN institution, the International Telecommunications Union, is seeking to reverse decades of precedent and give governments greater control over the internet. That means that the internet that you and I have come to love -- the one that has flourished over the years because it's decentralized and open -- is being threatened. The ITU is meeting soon, but won't release its negotiating plans to the public. I just signed the Access petition calling on the ITU to make its plans public and to leave the internet open and decentralized. I think you should too.

Obama OKs Proliferation of US "Hunter-Killer" #Drone Technology - #drones
The Wall Street Journal is reporting today that the Obama administration plans to arm Italy's fleet of Reaper drone aircraft, a move that would open the door for sales of advanced hunter-killer drone technology to other countries.
Obama's decision to provide the advanced hunter-killer drone technology for Italy's unarmed drones will make it hard for the US to deny the same technology to others, and set back efforts to urge sales limitations on other nations that are marketing sophisticated hunter-killer drones such as Israel.

Hundreds of Thousands March Against Austerity in UK
Hundreds of thousands of public sector workers are taking part in a UK-wide strike to protest proposed government austerity that has taken aim at their pensions and benefits.
Expectations were that between 250,000 and 400,000 people would take to the streets, including off-duty police officers, public health workers, and university employees. The strike is the latest in a series since the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition came to power two years ago and reveals that anger over public sector cuts is far from over.
Tell Leader Pelosi: Don't slash benefits
disturbing potential willingness to adopt a plan that could cut
benefits from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. These are three of America's most successful programs, and they've
been under relentless attack from corporate Republicans and Democrats
who want to see them privatized and their benefits -- which millions
of families rely on -- slashed in the process. Cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security benefits are
unacceptable, and they shouldn’t be put on the table by Democrats for
any reason. Leader Pelosi must stand up for these crucial programs. I just signed Progressives United's petition to Leader Pelosi asking
her to reject cutting Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid benefits,
and we can have a bigger impact if you sign, too. Take action here: http://www.progressivesunited.org/action/tell-leader-pelosi?sc=ty_em_c4_petit... Thanks!

Avaaz: Stop the Amazon Chainsaw Massacre. Tell Brazilian President Dilma to veto...
The Brazilian Congress has just passed a catastrophic forestry bill that gives loggers and farmers free rein to cut down huge swaths of the Amazon. Now only President Dilma can stop it.
Fortunately, the timing is on our side -- in weeks Dilma will host the world̢۪s biggest environmental summit and insiders say she cannot afford to open it as the leader who approved the destruction of the rainforest. She̢۪s facing mounting domestic pressure -- 79% of Brazilians rejecting this new bill Now, let's turn up the global heat and push her to axe the bill, not the rainforest.
Dilma could make her decision any day. The national Veto Dilma campaign is on fire -- if we join them now together we can save this precious rainforest. Click below to sign the urgent petition to stop the Amazon chainsaw massacre and send this to everyone:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/veto_dilma_global/?tta
The Amazon is vital to life on earth -- 20% of our oxygen comes from this magnificent rainforest, and it plays a key role in mitigating global climate change. Over the last decade, Brazil has vastly reduced deforestation rates, achieving a 78% decline between 2004 and 2011. The reason? A world-acclaimed forestry law, strong enforcement and satellite monitoring.
But this dangerous new bill would open up an area the size of France and Britain combined to clear-cutting and gives loggers amnesty for all past deforestation crimes. This would not only spark total forest devastation in Brazil, it would also set a bad precedent for other countries. That̢۪s why it̢۪s so crucial that we all protect it.
Brazil is a rapidly developing country, battling to lift tens of millions out of poverty. Despite evidence that growth does not require deforestation, Dilma is under pressure from the powerful agricultural lobby that helped her get elected to cut down rainforest for profit. And it is an ugly battle -- activists are being murdered, intimidated and silenced. But ex-Environmental Ministers and people across Brazil have sent a clear message to Dilma that they want to save the Amazon. Now, it̢۪s up to all of us to stand with them and urge President Dilma to remain strong.
The fate of Brazil̢۪s rainforests is dangling by a thread. But, with President Dilma so vulnerable to public pressure right now, we can bring the global force of people power to get a win for our planet! Sign the urgent petition below and tell everyone -- the petition will be delivered by Brazil̢۪s former Environment Ministers directly to Dilma:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/veto_dilma_global/?tta
In the last three years, we have won battle after battle against the odds. Now, let̢۪s come together to stop the destruction of the Amazon, protect our planet and herald Dilma as a true international environmental leader.
With hope and determination,
Luis, Pedro, Maria Paz, Alice, Ricken, Carol, Lisa, Rewan and the entire Avaaz team

Tell the Senate: Stop the online spying bills.
We need to speak out to stop the Senate from greatly expanding the power of the federal government and big corporations to spy on us as we use the Internet.
The House has already passed "Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act" (CISPA), a horrible bill that shreds our online civil liberties.
Supporters of CISPA cynically used the legitimate need to protect our vital national interests from cyber attacks as an excuse to give the government and private companies the authority to read, watch and listen to everything we do on the Internet.
Now the fight moves to the Senate, where several CISPA-like bills are under consideration.
I just signed a petition telling the Senate to stop the online spying bills. I hope you do, too.

Subject: Shocking new images from the BP Gulf disaster
Friend,
The White House and BP have been hiding the truth about the Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf.
Greenpeace has obtained pictures that show garbage bags full of dead sea turtles, dolphins struggling to hold on for life in the poisoned water and sperm whales swimming through a sheen of oil. What else about the Gulf disaster is the White House and Big Oil hiding from the public before they finish the settlement?
It’s not too late. The government has yet to announce the amount of money BP owes for the damages caused by the disaster.
Join me and take action by demanding that the White House publicly release everything they have around the Gulf disaster, make BP pay what they owe and put a stop to ALL new offshore drilling before it’s too late.

Germany Rejects #Fracking
Germany has rejected the gas drilling practice known as fracking, Spiegel reports today.
Blog title...Tell the FCC: Enforce the law. Revoke the broadcast licenses held by Rupert Murdoch's media empire.
FOX News' parent company, News Corporation, is embroiled in a phone hacking scandal that has shone a spotlight on the detestable practices its owner, Rupert Murdoch, promotes as journalism.
The ever-growing scandal has shut down one newspaper, led to multiple arrests and numerous resignations in the UK, and an FBI investigation into allegations that News Corp. staff may have sought to hack the voicemail of victims of 9/11 and their families in the US.
And now a committee in the UK parliament has issued a report blasting both Rupert Murdoch and his son James (also an executive at News Corp.) for their complicity in the scandal, concluding that Rupert Murdoch is "not a fit person to exercise stewardship of a major international company."
It's time for the FCC to take action. The law requires that the FCC consider the "character" of media owners when deciding whether to grant, deny or revoke a broadcast license.
I just signed a petition telling the FCC to enforce the law and revoke the broadcast licenses held by Rupert Murdoch's media empire.
I hope you do, too. You can find out more information and easily sign the petition at the link below.

No "get out of jail free" card for Wall Street bankers.
If the financial crimes task force President Obama announced in his State of the Union speech doesn't hand down criminal indictments soon, we might never see Wall Street bankers held accountable for causing the worst economic collapse since the Great Depression.
So it is deeply worrying that Congressman Brad Miller, who has been a real advocate for Wall Street accountability, recently said he was told months ago by the office of New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, one of the task force's five co-chairs, not to expect criminal indictments from the task force.
If we want to see criminal Wall Street bankers behind bars, we must insist that President Obama and the co-chairs of the financial fraud task force do not take criminal prosecutions off the table.
I just signed a petition to them about this, and I hope you do as well.
There's more information and an easy way to sign the petition at the link below.
