Dear Readers,
I have been doing online petitions for many different causes for around 10 years now. But in just the last 2 years I have seen a huge increase in success stories from these online petitions! Whether keeping US corporations from polluting the environment, setting up tax havens in foreign countries or preventing bad government legislation like allowing the Keystone Pipeline or Corporate control of the internet - to name just a few!
There are ongoing battles like fixing our democracy and overturning the Citizen United Supreme Court blunder, GMOs and the right to know what is in our food, and the fossil fuel interests trying to deny, keep down or control information about the valid science of petrol Co2 release human caused Global Warming. In addition the fossil fuel corporations try to prevent via puppet politicians - the free flow of clean energy technology such as Solar and Wind.
These very important battles and many others will determine whether humanity has a healthy awesome future or a dismal dark one where the majority will suffer because of the consequences of these crucial issues that have to be fixed ASAP!
Get involved - sign up and do petitions and go to or organize protests in your area of the planet! I spend around 20 minutes a day on petitions. Yes - they will ask you for money - but if you have none to give - no problem - just press delete.
Be part of the solution - make the world a better place - one click at a time! Every bit helps regardless of what naysayers say! Like I said in the first part of this blog - I have seen more success stories recently than ever before in the 10 years I have been doing this. I attribute it to the rise in awareness on issues that can no longer be ignored like global warming and the proliferation/ease of use to help spread the word via social networks. Whatever the reasons it is good and you can do it too!
Here is a list/links of respected organizations trying to make the world a better place! If you know of others - share them in comments section! Go for it! Do you civic duty - our democracy is broken and we can't depend on our politicians to fix things - they are actually part of the problem now! Use an pseudonym email if you are worried about getting on a Big Brother list! Even 20 minutes a week for a better future would be awesome!
