Are you an Avaaz supporter?
It is the biggest movement in global history to bring
ordinary people together to stand up for justice: climate
justice, resource depletion justice, humanitarian justice. It
costs nothing to receive their emails and respond to their
campaigns but a few seconds of your time. It is
really beginning to make politicians and big business
worldwide stand up and listen to the views of ordinary folk
like us: people who are not necessarily political activists
but who really care about the future of our world. As
an example, in the past few months pressure from Avaaz has
turned the tide on the UK Govt's plan to sell off our publicly
owned woodlands and forests and has shamed all the worlds tinned
tuna manufacturers into adopting sustainable fishing methods -
not bad for an internet based organisation!
Avaaz has now hit 10 million supporters. If you are not one of
them read what they have to say about this milestone below.
Then why not join in too?
''Just a few hours ago, our
community reached 10 million people! 10 million of us. From
every nation, every walk of life. Hopeful, and serious about
creating the world we all dream of. Campaign after campaign,
we're winning. Not just the little fights, the big ones, the ones
they said couldn't be won. And we're just getting
started.
There's never been a community like
this before - and we're accelerating - growing by 4 million in the
last 9 months! If we stick together, anything's possible. The
world may be awash with fear and fatalism, but people power is
on the march everywhere, and together we're renewing and sustaining
the most powerful force for change ever known...Hope.
With enormous gratitude for every
person in this extraordinary community, Ricken, Alice, Luis,
Ben, Ari, Saravanan, Wissam, Diego, Mia and the entire Avaaz
team.''
