Title: Campaigns
Post by: KatG on December 13, 2013, 04:11:43 PM

I came across this community garden with its protest banner in the El Ribera district of Barcelona.

Organisations such as Avaaz, WWF and Greenpeace regularly harness the support of millions to alter the course of legislation, potential and existing, which adversely affects the environment. The 'Monsanto protection act' and the campaign to ban bee killing pesticides are two examples of their success. Shouldn't the forum have a section where we can share information and raise awareness of these issues?

Sounds like a good idea to me. Of course, nobody would want to be bombarded with "political" postings but if the postings clearly fell into a "campaigns" section, where all users could clearly see what kind of posting it was before deciding to read it or not, I can't see what the problem would be. :)
