  • Represent the Indigenous and Protect Rainforests - We can protect the Amazon Rainforest by representing the Indigenous people with lawyers. Because Indigenous people have lived in the Amazon Rainforest for thousands of years, they have a right to the land that goes above the right of logging companies to buy the land from the government and destroy the ecosystem. The reason rights of the Indigenous are often ignored is because they have no representation in the system. With lawyers, we could guarantee their right to live on the land they have inhabited for thousands of years. By doing this we would also protect the ecosystems that share the same land with the Indigenous people, thereby protecting the Amazon Rainforest from deforestation.

  • Rainforest Action Network - A bold environmental campaign, RAN campaigns for the forests and rainforests, their inhabitants and the natural systems that sustain life by transforming the global marketplace through grassroots organizing, education and non-violent direct action. RAN helped pioneer market campaigns against large multinational corporations in the 1990's, using grassroots activism and savvy media work to advocate for changes in environmental policies. Since then, RAN has had numerous successes in its Old Growth, Global Finance, and Zero emissions campaigns against logging companies, banks, and vehicle manufacturers. RAN relies on grassroots organizing, media stunts, and the occasional use of non-violent civil disobedience to pressure corporations into publicly adopting environmental policies that address issues ranging from deforestation to global warming. RAN works in close alliance with an increasingly well-coordinated movement of NGOs (non-governmental organizations). Along with Global Exchange and the Ruckus Society, RAN played a central role in organizing the mass actions against the WTO (World Trade Organization) summit in Seattle in 1999. Although the organization once had RAGS (Rainforest Action Groups) around the country, today its operations are centralized in San Francisco.

Each issue features reflective articles about politics in the U.S., incisive social and cultural commentary, plus the most sophisticated coverage of European politics you'll find anywhere outside of Europe.
