PLANTING PEACE: WHY ORGANIC CONSUMERS MUST SPEAK OUT AGAINST WAR & GLOBAL WARMING

ALERT
OF THE WEEK: PLANTING PEACE
WHY ORGANIC CONSUMERS MUST SPEAK OUT AGAINST WAR & GLOBAL
WARMING

A greater market share for local, organic & fair trade products
will amount to very little in a world of constant war, vanishing
oil supplies and climate chaos. That’s why the Organic Consumers
Association is launching "Planting Peace", a campaign
to stimulate greater cooperation and synergy between the anti-war,
climate crisis, and organic movements. As supporters of peace,
justice and sustainability, we have no choice but to force Washington
to reallocate massive portions of federal war funding towards
peace, sustainability, alternative energy, and reducing dangerous
greenhouse gases. As Bush comes to Congress asking for more
money for war, let’s tell our elected officials: We buy local,
organic & fair trade… But we’re not buying this war!
