i got this message emailed to me...usually i hate forwarded shit, but this is pretty important...copy this and email it to some peeps or whatever. peace.
Dear All,
The Brazilian congress is now voting on a project that will reduce the
Amazon forest to 50% of its size. It will take 1 MINUTE to read this,
but
PLEASE put your names on the list and forward this on as instructed
below. First, some facts:
1. The Amazon rainforest is responsible for the generation of 20% of
the oxygen that we on this earth
breathe,
2. 30% of the world's freshwater is contained within the Amazon
basin,
3. 60% of the cancer-fighting drugs used today are derived from
plants
that can only
be found within the Amazon rainforest.
The area to be deforested is 4 times the size of Portugal and would be
mainly used for agriculture and
pastures for livestock. All the wood is to be sold to international
markets in the form of wood chips, by large multinational companies. The
truth is that the soil in the Amazon forest is useless without the
forest itself. Its quality is very acidic and the region is prone to
constant floods. At this time more than 160,000 square kilometres
deforested with the same purpose are abandoned and in the process of
becoming deserts, meaning that this proposal is in the short-term
interests of a few, and in the long term interests of none.
Please copy (cut & paste) the entire text into a new e-mail', put your
complete name on the list below, and send to everyone you know. (DON'T
JUST FORWARD IT, AS IT WILL THEN END UP WITH ROWS AND
ROWS of '>'s - which discourages people from sending it on.)
If you are the 400th person to sign please send a copy to:
