You might recall the post a couple of months back about the ConDem plans to auction off our national forests to private enterprises. This is, thankfully, still pending while they cut public services, state support for the vulnerable and the tax bills of certain retail groups and mobile phone service providers. The campaign to stop these plans from eventually going ahead, however, is not.
38 Degrees are still raising money for this campaign; they will be launching a media campaign to raise offline awareness. 80,000 (and more!) people have signed their petition and £15,000 has been raised for the campaign. Please, if you haven't already, consider signing the petition yourself. And then why not suggest it to two more people (or three or four or five?) and ask them to pass it on, too.
And while you're at the 38 Degrees site, have a look at their other campaigns. There's a lot going on, and will hopefully effect more change than chaning your Facebook profile picture.
