Environmental Preaching Opportunity

[Guest guest]

The US government (Mr Bush) has, without asking anyone, abolished all

environmental protection to the favor of the big industry. This is a chance

to make harinam-protest marches with banderolles of protest against the

destroyers of Krishnas nature and our living conditions. Here is the article

from emofree.com newsletter:

EFT, the theme of this newsletter. It concerns upcoming U.S. environmental

A message from Robert Redford, on threats to our environment

 

(Note: Robert Redford is an American actor, director and conservationist)

 

———————————————————————————————

 

"Americans voted for many things this past Election Day, but one thing we

did not vote for was a sweeping attack on our environment. Yet President

Bush is already acting as if we did.

 

If you don't have time to read my letter, then please go straight to the

BioGems website at http://www.savebiogems.org/takeaction.asp 9 and send

messages to your U.S. senators and representative telling them to stand up

in defense of our environment.

Barely two weeks after the election, the Bush administration repaid big

corporate campaign contributors with a massive new loophole in the Clean Air

Act that will allow them to dramatically increase air pollution and harm the

health of millions of Americans.

 

Days later, it was the timber industry's turn to cash in. On Thanksgiving

eve, the administration proposed new rules that would allow it to put all

155 national forests on the chopping block for logging and other commercial

activities without having to take public input or study the devastating

impacts on wildlife.

 

It's no accident these special interest handouts were announced after

Election Day. They are a radical departure from the values of conservation

that most Americans hold dear.

 

But the worst is yet to come. The White House has signaled clearly that the

sacrifice of our clean air and national forests is only the leading edge of

a much broader attack that will come early this year. It will be a

determined and systematic effort to dismantle our nation's entire framework

of environmental protection.

 

Last year, the U.S. Senate was the firewall that saved us from President

Bush's most destructive raids on the environment. Not any more. Key Senate

committees in the new Congress will be chaired by stalwart allies of

polluting industries who are flat-out hostile to our environmental laws.

 

Industry lobbyists are already circling, ready to plunder the public

treasures they have coveted for so long: the Arctic National Wildlife

Refuge, the Alaskan rainforest, the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem, and many

more of our last wild places.

 

No one voted for these environmental disasters on Election Day, but they

will come to pass if we don't unite right now to prevent them.

 

The president's campaign to undermine our environmental laws could be

derailed instantly if millions of Americans would hold Congress accountable

for its upcoming votes. The fate of our natural heritage will be determined

by a handful of moderates, Democrat and Republican. Senators on both sides

of the aisle won close races this past Election Day by promising to protect

the environment. It's time to make them keep their word.

 

Please go to the BioGems website at

http://www.savebiogems.org/takeaction.asp and send electronic messages

directly to your U.S. senators and representative (easy to do simply with

the click of a button). Tell them to defend 30 years of bipartisan

environmental progress by putting a stop to the Bush administration's

assaults.

 

And if you want to do even more for the environment, please forward this

message to as many people as you can. Remember, the White House can continue

this sweeping attack on our environment only if Americans remain silent.

Thank you for speaking out.

 

Sincerely,

Robert Redford
