Well, it seems like ordinary people are beginning to realize that
something has to be done against the unfairness of the world. Band Aid
"World GREATEST rockconcert" against starvation in africa and now USENET
against environmental destruction of the world. FINE!!!

Personally I feel that WE all have to CRY out LOUD whenever something
obviously wrong is going on and I therefore wellcome this chance to
show that the net isn't just a club of passive members doing nothing
but working out whether it should be "stuff++" or "stuff := stuff + 1".

I don't know the right procedure but it could be starting a fund for
rebuilding Greenpeace's Rainbow Warrior -- Or together make a public
statement and donate the money to the local Greenpeace office, I believe
there is one in almost every capital in Europe.

Don't just let this subject drown in discussion and debate let's do something!
