Happy Earth Day!
We are celebrating Earth Day with the release of a new video – ‘Inspiring Action‘ – which we would like to share with you as part of our thanks for your continuing support of Greenpeace.
When you’ve finished watching the video we are also hoping that you’ll be inspired and help us to share its message of action on behalf of our environment by taking some online action yourself … and helping us recruit 3 million people to become climate activists. Yes, you read it correctly. 3 million. It’s a big number because the Earth needs big action this year.
Here’s what you can do:
First: Enjoy the video. Click on the YouTube logo at the end to rate it and leave a comment!
Second: Share it with your friends and family
Third: Take action for the climate this Earth Day by signing our online petition: ask our world leaders to take personal responsibility for the future of the climate and attend the UN Climate summit at the end of the year. But not just attend, they need to ensure a good deal for the climate.
Here’s to a future that’s green and peaceful. Together we can make it happen.
All of us,
Greenpeace International

Innocent stray dogs are being skewered alive and being dragged behind boats as shark bait. Help Animal Rights and sign a letter to the French government to ask for an end to this inhumane practice in Reunion Island (French-controlled). We are asking the government to make sure this never happens again. You can WATCH THE VIDEO that shows the poor dog being rescued — see below. Here is the petition:

Here is a piece of the National Geographic article:
“Live and dead dogs and cats are being used as shark bait by amateur fishers on the French-controlled island of Réunion, according to animal-welfare organizations and local authorities.
The small volcanic island off Africa’s east coast is bursting with stray dogs—upward of 150,000, says Reha Hutin, president of the Paris-based Fondation 30 Millions d’Amis (the Thirty Million Friends Foundation).
Hutin sent a film crew to Réunion this summer to obtain proof that live animals were being used as shark bait. The goal was to expose the practice on the animal rights group’s weekly television show.
It didn’t take long for the film crew to find three separate cases, she said.
A videotape and photographs show the dogs with multiple hooks sunk deep into their paws and snouts.”
Also, here’s a page that some friends passed along for everyone that cares about animal cruelty:

Bravo mi amico Nick. Right you, you bunch of tight bastards and invited guests reading my blog just for entertainment – read this:
This Easter a group of seven cyclists will be riding the Lon Las Challenge in five days. That’s three mountain ranges and 250 miles of cycling. It is known as one of the toughest long distance routes on the UK cycle route, starting in Hollyhead and finishing in Chepstow.
And like certain people I know that weekend, they are not going to stay in bed ’til 1pm, be off in the Alps snowboarding, nor drink beer all weekend (am I right in saying that Nick?), and they are all doing it out of the kindness of their own hearts for children they don’t even know!!!
So show them A BIT OF RESPECT please – YOU can donate any amount you want (no amount is too large OR too small, and it takes just two minutes).
You even get your name and comments on their website – FAME
Donate NOW at http://www.justgiving.com/lonlaschallenge
The crazy cyclists too skint to go snowboarding, and with nothing else better to do are:
Cenydd Richards
Natalie Hemingway-Main
Juliet Milne
Nick Tallis (anything to get out of decorating)
Ffion Hayley Liles
Steve Heyes
Nerys Evans
“BRAVO!”
So don’t forget, you can donate NOW at http://www.justgiving.com/lonlaschallenge
They kindly ask that you donate what you can to sponsor them, otherwise they will all have extremely sore arses for nothing (haha Nick). Your kind donation will go to a charity called LearnAsOne who are working towards a sustainable education for children in Africa.
Please, donate NOW at http://www.justgiving.com/lonlaschallenge

On Tuesday, three hundred and forty concerned citizens gathered in Brussels to block the exits of the building where European finance ministers were discussing funding for climate change. We wanted to keep them inside until they came up with money to tackle climate change in developing countries.
European leaders recognise that rich countries must provide funds to developing nations so that they can reduce greenhouse gas emmissions and adapt to climate change. So far, they have not put a single euro on the table. Each country’s contribution towards a climate bailout plan is based on its ability to pay and its level of responsibility in causing climate change. Based on this, European governments should contribute €35 billion a year by 2020, the equivalent of just €1.30 a week per European citizen. The price of a bus ticket.
In spite of our best efforts, ministers continued to dither yesterday. Once all of the protesters had been arrested, they managed to leave the building without committing a cent of public money. Instead they had made an empty promise for investments from the private sector, which they can neither predict nor control.
Now it is up to Heads of States to make the final decision at the EU Summit next week, 19-20 March. If they also fail to come up with solid financial support, it will threaten the success of a deal at the UN Climate Summit in Copenhagen this December. And that will literally cost us the earth.
The Polish government is being particularly obstructive to progress. It is avoiding the funding issue and does not want to take the responsibility for its huge emissions and contribution to climate change.
Help us to convince polish Prime Minister Mr. Tusk not to block the climate change deal.
Mr. Tusk talks of solidarity. Without global solidarity we will not solve the climate crisis. Send him an e-mail asking him to live up to his words by showing solidarity to developing countries’ efforts to avert and adapt to climate change.
No money, no deal, no future.
Every letter is important.
Thank you for your attention,
Eoin, Agnes & the entire Climate Team
