If you haven't already seen the 2008-2009 Annual Report for Greenpeace, please explore it! After months of working on it, picking the highlights from 2008 and trying to pick out a few photos from the amazing ones we have,  like this one:

The Annual Report is done! I couldn't be happier! 

I consider myself a daring individual. I like karaoke, I am willing to try new things and take risks. I enjoy non-violent direct action as a way to bring about change in cultures, societal norms and political climates.

No one can compare to these Greenpeace Activists in India though. These activists scaled a thermal power plant in Kolaghat, India 2 days after the Kingsnorth 6. They, unlike the K6, are still waiting to have their charges dropped. (It's been two years.) See their video talking about why they took action:

So inspirational. So amazing. The physical, emotional, and mental strenth of these activists is nothing to shake your fist at - they are working hard to change their community, country and world!

You know that Inspi(red) campaign to help AIDS? Well, I have always felt that really - the campgin should be Inspi(green). Okay, I admit... it's definitely not as catchy, but that's what should inspire people. The natural things around you are where you came from, and continues to support life on this planet. That should inspire you.  These activists from India should inspire you. They have done it for me. Keep on the look out for Inspi(green) bags at a store near you! All proceeds will go back to the earth. 

My point is, not all of us have what it takes to be arrested. That is okay! But that doesn't mean we can't change ourselves and the world around us. So, take action, talk to someone about what you believe and stand up for it! The planet needs you!

I am SO HAPPY about this:

President Obama should listen to Granny Sarah - take action to let him know you feel the same! Push for Solar Solutions! Yes we can! Stop letting false solutions like "clean" coal, natural gas and nuclear power get airtime - dedicate your messaging to the possibilities of renewable energy! The time is now! Yes we can stop global warming! :o) 

PS - And yes, she is top notch in my book because she spells her name with and 'H' too! 

Bottom trawling has gotten served again by Greenpeace!

If you haven't seen my post about My favorite Greenpeace video — head on over and watch it! It's a video about how bottom trawling is "laying waste to the precious ecosystems of the deep sea."

Last year, Greenpeace dropped boulders in the North Sea to protect the region against bottom trawling. This year we struck again in Sweden, yah!

So in love with this — a great way to mess with a truly destructive practice!

WE DID IT! KIMBERLEY-CLARK LISTENED! 

What a great day to work for Greenpeace. :o)

PS - I am the girl saying "Hi" in this video... in  Knoxville (referenced above)! So happy to see that all the hard work has paid off for the environment and for Kimberly-Clark!
