'How to be green? Many people have asked us this important question. It's really very simple and requires no expert knowledge or complex skills. Here's the answer. Consume less. Share more. Enjoy life.' Penny Kemp and Derek Wall

They celebrated world environment day June 5th by killing Amazon defenders
I hear a lot of environmental rhetoric, not enough action.
On 5th June, 2008 the Peruvian government killed over a 100 indigenous people resisting the destruction of the Amazon.
Serious green politics, focussed environmentalism or even what we might call enlightened self-interest, has solidarity with these people.
Spread the word, the indigenous are on the web, take a regular look.
Finally don't forget today there is a Presidential election with two contenders, one Fujimori is the daughter of a previous President who killed and bribed and has 300,000 indigenous women sterilized...the other candidate Humala stood with the indigenous at Bagua.
How many $ms are being poured in by corporations to elect Fujimori, so don't just transition town get involved in focussed political action for planet and people!
