Something New

As a Greenpeace cyberactivist, I routinely follow up various national and international environmental stories as much leeway as time would allow when I'm not shuttling between office-home-college-home. Until now, my "cyberactivism" was limited to writing to various heads of state, elected representatives, members of parliament, etc., urging them to take action regarding various environmental issues. I am quite sure that they get thousands of such similar mails from other cyberactivists too, and they would definately not have the time to read them personally. I don't blame them. There are much important things a member of parliament a has to do than bother about an environment under threat, e.g. elections, swindle tax-payer's money, and well, you know the rest. Regardless whether they read it or not, I have got few replies. Taking it a step further, I just thought of writing about environmental issues on my blog. I dont have a large group of visitors on my blog, just a few of my friends and colleagues, but I hope that people who read it will be a bit more aware about whats going on and perhaps take a positive step.
