Friends of the Earth Europe is conducting an amazing campaign at present to draw attention to and then STOP worldwide illegal logging.

For years governments and politicians have discussed the problem of illegal logging. Now there’s an opportunity to do something about it. In early 2008 the European Commission will do a proposal to combat trade in illegally logged wood. Friends of the Earth believes environmental legislation should require all wood and wood products placed on the European market to be legally logged. Your support is crucial! Therefore sign the appeal to European Commissioners.

While you’re there, check out the great video footage of ‘urban commandos’ in Amsterdam and Brussels as they plant trees right in the heart of these cities. Ask yourself, is it unethical to plant a tree?
BTW, I tried to post the videos, but YouTube is acting like a cranky bitch as present.

Thanks, Peter.
