What are you doing about it? (Politics Chapter)

[Q45]

I put this thread in the Comunity board, but I think it really belongs here.

Well, we've done it. Earth's a catastrophe. Politics are a catastrophe. Everything feels hopeless. Everyone who knows anything about what's going on is complaining.

Enough complaining. Words are only noise unless they follow action.

This thread begs the question "what are you doing to make a difference?" and to share stories and ideas that can influence others to make one too.

This's NOT the place for political arguments. You want that, go to another thread. This is the place to encourage and challenge one another towards some progress we aren't seeing enough of.

We know it's pretty negative out there. Let's encourage some positive.

I'll start with a small example (I hope some of you have better ones), some websites I frequent.
http://www.foodnotbombs.net/ (highly recommended underground group)
http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/en/ (great place to get involved)
http://www.thehungersite.com/clickTo...faces?siteId=1 (feed the hungry for free)
http://www.change.org/savethewhales/petitions
http://wwf.worldwildlife.org/site/Pa...ename=can_home

Those are my cards. Now it's your turn. Trump my hand.

I'm voting for Ron Paul, there.

I'm going to have to disagree here. The Earth isn't a catastrophe. Politics is as crappy as it's always been, and there is always hope.

If you must know what I'm doing to make a difference, it's what I'm doing now. Let things take their course, and things will work out. History supports this.

There is always hope, but you have to work for it. A better tomorrow is not guaranteed.

I am also posting this clip of an enlightening third party opinion to the Casey Anthony trial.
