Global Warming, Environment, Social Equality, Businness Ethics, Sustainable Development, Humanitarian Crisis, Act Now

There may be no arctic ice at the North Pole this summer! First time record! Are we happy? What's next? We already know about the acceleration of climate change. While contemplating for example on Greenland Ice Loss or assessing other up to date information from Scientific Journals, like Climate Change or from world wide committees like NRDC, or IPCC, please ACT NOW! Stop global warming! You wonder why IPCC and Al Gore won combined the Nobel peace prize in 2007? And what to do? We have the Stern Report and the latest Plan B 3.0! If you live in a city, go on bicycle every day! It's quick, healthy, fun and green! Though a certain critical mass is needed to change motorist drivers behaviour. Until it occurs, cycle safely! Or convert your car to an electric car! Power it with renewables!

Are you a Friend of the Earth? Do you read Treehugger or are you a member of Fauna and Flora International? You can join World Land Trust? If you buy forest while supporting local communities you prevent environmental and social impacts of deforestation by legal and market forces. Doing this also offsets huge amount of carbon and saves for future: Cool Earth. What else? Plant trees, more trees and ever more trees! You should plant wherever you are. And, oh yes, Guerilla Gardening. Read what the UN has to say on sustainable development and the EU on chemicals. Do you know what is Sustainable Agriculture?

And also, you can Make Poverty History! See the Fair Trade Movement: http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/, http://www.maketradefair.com/. Multinational Monitor for International Corporate Issues. Read about the Bolivian Water Revolution, which rose after privatisation of the water supply suggested by the World Bank. Investigate similar events at Democracy Center. If you want the sane, thourough, detailed professional journalism style read Robert Fisk, Naomi Klein, etc. Read about Ethical Banking... how to make sure your money funds ethically and ecologically proper investments. Examples like Triodos Bank or the Co-operative Bank in the UK. Even better, the Nobel-prized Muhammed Yunus's Grameen Bank system. Contemplate the idea of the Conscious Capitalism. Do you care what's really going on? Well, go stop the violence around you. There are enough bullets ready to be fired on Earth that is enough to kill all of the world's population twice! And this is just small arms... Join! Control Arms Campaign, Campaign Against Arms Trade...

A well organised hungarian NGO: Védegylet, you find all important links there for hungarian environment protection and social equality movements.

Oh, and my little community cooperative ecological project: Eco-community Nyim
