Toxic-Free Future!
ECO-ALERT: Show European Members of Parliament We Support a Toxic Free Future!
Date: 10/13/2005 1:26:51 AM ( 19 y ) ... viewed 1086 times After two years of debate, 732 members of the European parliament will be voting on the new chemicals law, REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals). They are Europe's elected representatives and should vote to protect their citizens and children from chemicals that build up in our bodies and could interrupt our hormone system.
Tell them that they need to vote for safer chemicals! Join a "virtual gallery" being presented to European Members of Parliament. Our European allies are asking for our help as they create a gallery of photos of individuals and families from around the world that support a toxic free future. The photos will be presented to politicians in Europe to as they consider a far-reaching new approach to the regulation of chemicals. Please help us reach the European members of parliament with your personalized message. The MPs need to understand that people around the world are saying "no" to chemicals in our bodies and demanding a healthier future. They need to know that people care how MPs vote on the draft "REACH" legislation (Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals) -- that this policy decision will affect real people around the world. Messages from those of us in North America are especially important, as the U.S. government has been actively undermining the most protective pieces of the legislation. Take Action! Go to: Chemical Reaction and follow the directions for uploading an image of yourself and your loved ones with a personal message showing your support for a toxic free future. Our allies in Europe are working to collect 20,000 images. They will send a link to the virtual gallery to all European Members of Parliament, and they will produce an album and hand it to the President of the European Parliament before the vote on November 16th. For More Information: See Chemical Reaction. This message is from Pesticide Action Network North America (PANNA)
