CALL FOR URGENT HELP

Merry meet to all my brothers and sisters.

I CALL TO ALL UK MEMBERS FOR YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE.

Mother Earth needs our protection from humanity and your assistance is needed now.

The Earth is also home to the living beings of the trees and plants who provide for us.

THE UK GOVERNMENT PLANS TO SELL OUR FORESTS.

That includes national treasures like the The Forest of Dean, Sherwood Forest and The New Forest.

We cannot allow this to happen.

They could be auctioned and fenced off, run down, logged or turned into golf courses and holiday villages.

We need to stop these plans.

A huge petition will force the government to rethink its plans.

If we can prove how strongly the public are against this, they will have to back down.

Please sign the petition in the link below now. (You need to enter a UK postcode to sign).

Some blurb:

Our campaign to Save Our Forests hit the headlines this weekend!

First our petition and an opinion poll - paid for by hundreds of 38 Degrees members - were reported on Countryfile, the Today programme and BBC 5 Live breakfast. Then a group including the Archbishop of Canterbury backed our campaign - making the front page of the Sunday Telegraph!

Our pressure is starting to work. If enough of us sign the petition, we can make the government think again.

Please can you help spread the word, and ask your friends to sign the petition too? If enough of us get involved we can to stop these plans - before it's too late and our forests are already being sold, fenced off, run down, cut down or built over.

Please help get the petition past 200,000 signatures this week - forward this e-mail and ask your friends to sign.

They can sign in under a minute by clicking this link:

Our pressure has got the government worried. They've started a charm offensive, telling us that they love forests too. But right now, despite the warm fuzzy words, David Cameron is pushing through changes to the law. He still wants to make it legal to sell off 100% of our woodlands.

Forests like the Forest of Dean, the New Forest, Bedgebury, Grizedale, Thetford, and Alice Holt are national treasures. Once they’re gone, they are lost forever. If we get enough signatures on the petition, we have a bigger chance of making sure they are protected for wildlife and future generations.

Please forward this e-mail and ask your friends to sign the petition here:

Lets hope they dont!!

I call the divine to hear my plea,
Protect our forests from humanity.

Ancient woodlands, our government plans to sell,
The future of trees is not looking well.

Stop them now with all your power,
Protect nature’s tree, plant & flower.

Stop now this disgraceful plan,
Protect precious forests from deeds of man.

Blessings and thanks for hearing my plea,
So mote it be and blessed be.

The uk government are corrupt they serve to feather their own nests and care nothing for the people or the planet,
but mother nature has a way of fighting back. the ppl are already showing their distaste for the government and it will get a lot worse,
have already signed and had my friends sign.


Namaste

as an American I am so sorry I can not be allowed to vote on your petition to save your beloved forests.

I am saddened by it for you...

We cannot allow these vandals to spoil our beautiful places [ the National Parks are also under attack ! ]
Ignore their statements about being Nature lovers too, they lie by default. They understand one thing - money ! Actually two things, we can hurt them at the next election and we should do so, badly !
These are people who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
These forests are ancient and hold the soul and spirit of the Land.

Just a sample of what is at risk

I can't stand that I can't sign it!
Saddens me dearly, I hope you can find enough signatures!

OK folks, the government petition site is in the "No active petitions" mode atm but it did say that any petition with more than 100000 signatures must be debated in parliament - well, the number is approaching 250000.

However, how bolshie do you want to be over this ?
I have just e-mailed David Miliband asking for his response. We could give him some ammo in debate
