Drop the debt: petition for Greece

18 August 2015 by kate Leave a Comment

“In January, after five long years of punishing austerity followed by deepening poverty, inequality and social crisis, the Greek people demanded a change of course. They gave their new government a mandate to end austerity and renegotiate the terms of Greece’s bailout loans.

“But five months into the negotiations, Greece’s powerful creditors are refusing to budge. The ‘Troika’ of the European Union, the IMF and the ECB are demanding more of the same austerity ‘medicine’ that has plunged Greece into crisis.”

The Jubilee Debt Campaign has created a petition calling for Greece’s debt to be cancelled:

Anti-Monsanto petition is so close to its goal!

26 June 2015 by kate Leave a Comment

A petition urging Monsanto to stop silencing scientists has now reached 1,414,259 signatures – well on the way to achieving the target of 1,500,000, or 1.5 million signatures. Can you add your signature and share it?

Sign now

The petition was created after the World Health Organisation (WHO) released a report saying that a very commonly used herbicide causes cancer. Now Monsanto is demanding that the WHO retracts the report. They’re not offering any evidence that the report is wrong in any way; they just want to silence the scientists so that people don’t become aware of how we’re being poisoned. Let’s help to get the word out!
