EarthAction

The interrelated global problems of environmental degradation, poverty, war and the abuse of human rights threaten the future of everyone on earth. Yet most governments and corporations continue with business as usual, as if they haven't noticed. We have the knowledge, and the resources, to solve these problems. All that is lacking is the will.

The impulse for globally responsible policies among both governments and corporations must come, in the end, from the world's people. We need to generate a tidal wave of public opinion around the planet that cannot be ignored.
EarthAction’s goal is to mobilize growing numbers of people around the world to press their governments (or sometimes corporations) for stronger action to solve global problems.
EarthAction’s strategy is to create a global action alert network made up of individuals, groups and legislators who are prepared to act together on global problems. We devote particular attention to the challenge of building a more democratic and effective UN system to help solve those problems.
