Tell Texas Utility Company: Don't Barbeque Our Planet!
http://act.actforchange.com/cgi-bin7/DM/y/erH10BCK1a0COb0BS4I0EwTexas utility giant TXU has announced plans to build eleven massive
new power plants that will use outdated, pulverized-coal-burning
technology. Texas Governor Rick Perry -- who's taken hundreds of
thousands of dollars in contributions from utility companies in recent
years -- has now fast-tracked the permitting process for these plants
and limited public input.
If built, these plants will lock in 78 million tons of carbon dioxide
emissions per year -- the equivalent of 10 million Cadillac Escalade
SUVs -- for decades to come. Texas' energy needs can easily and
quickly be met through conservation and energy efficiency measures
that won't trash our climate.

barbeque our planet. Click here:

Do Your Part -- Go Carbon Neutral!
http://act.actforchange.com/cgi-bin7/DM/y/erH10BCK1a0COb0BS4J0ExWe're all concerned about global warming -- and as U.S. citizens, we
should be. We're 5 percent of the world's population but we produce 25
percent of total greenhouse gas emissions. However, there's an easy
and affordable way to neutralize your share of global warming --
carbon offsets from CarbonFund.org.
Carbonfund uses your donation to support wind energy, energy
efficiency and reforestation projects that reduce climate change. And
if you go zero-carbon by offsetting 23 tons per year or more, Working
Assets will chip in another five tons of offsets at no additional cost
to you.

Tell Verizon and AT&T: Come Clean on Privacy Rights
http://act.actforchange.com/cgi-bin7/DM/y/erH10BCK1a0COb0BS4K0EyThis past May, USA Today reported that AT&T and Verizon voluntarily
provided customer phone records and communications data to the
National Security Agency (NSA) without requiring a court order.
In response, groups of shareholders have now filed motions with both
companies to compel them to issue a "Privacy Rights Protection Report"
and answer to customers and shareholders for these gross violations of
privacy. In the interests of corporate responsibility, the leaders of
Verizon and AT&T should support adoption of these resolutions.
Tell the CEOs of Verizon and AT&T to support these resolutions. Click

interested in saving our global environment, going carbon-neutral, or
getting AT&T and Verizon to come clean about customer privacy. ***
