Περιβαλλοντικές οργανώσεις στη Σουμάτρα κάνουν τα πάντα για να τραβήξουν την προσοχή του Πρέσβη και ζητούν τη βοήθειά μας για να ενισχύσουμε την επείγουσα έκκληση. Ας φέρουμε το θέμα στο παγκόσμιο προσκήνιο για να πάρει θέση ο Ευρωπαίος Πρέσβης πριν είναι πολύ αργά. Υπόγραψε τώρα:

Η έγκριση του σχεδίου για την αποψίλωση αυτής της τεράστιας δασικής έκτασης για εξόρυξη, χαρτί και καλλιέργειες φοινικέλαιου θα επιφέρει τραγική, περιβαλλοντική καταστροφή. Αυτό το δάσος είναι το τελευταίο καταφύγιο για αρκετά ήδη ζώων που κινδυνεύουν να εξαφανιστούν.
Ο Ευρωπαίος Πρέσβης στην Ινδονησία, Όλοφ Σκογκ, μπορεί να παρέχει την πολιτική και τεχνική στήριξη που χρειάζεται η τοπική κυβέρνηση για να εξετάσει προσεκτικά το καταστροφικό σχέδιο και να τους πείσει να προστατεύσουν το πιο εύθραυστο κομμάτι του δάσους. Ορισμένες χώρες της Ευρώπης έχουν ήδη κινητοποιηθεί προς αυτή την κατεύθυνση. Χρειαζόμαστε όμως μια συντονισμένη προσέγγιση για να έχουμε δυνατό αντίκτυπο και ο Πρέσβης είναι ο καταλληλότερος γι’αυτή τη δουλειά.
Η ΕΕ είναι σημαντικός χορηγός προγραμμάτων βιώσιμης ανάπτυξης στη Σουμάτρα. Γι’αυτό ο Σκογκ οφείλει να διασφαλίσει πως τα αποτελέσματα αυτής της Ευρωπαϊκής επένδυσης δεν κινδυνεύουν απ’το σχέδιο αποψίλωσης. Πηγές λένε πως ο μόνος λόγος για τον οποίο δεν έχει πάρει ακόμη θέση, είναι επειδή δεν έχει συνειδητοποιήσει πόσο σημαντικό είναι αυτό το θέμα και τον ρόλο που εκείνος μπορεί να παίξει.
Ακόμη δεν έχουμε κερδίσει τη μεγαλύτερη μάχη για τη διάσωση του τροπικού δάσους. Ας ενισχύσουμε λοιπόν το κάλεσμα προς τον Πρέσβη και ας του κάνουμε ξεκάθαρο πως βασιζόμαστε σ’εκείνον για να διασώσουμε ένα απ΄τα πιο σημαντικά δάση του πλανήτη μας. Κάνε κλικ για να υπογράψεις το ψήφισμα:

Παρά τις δυσκολίες, καταφέραμε να καθυστερήσουμε την έγκριση του σχεδίου πιέζοντας την κυβέρνηση να κάνει τροποποιήσεις. Στη συνέχεια, ενώσαμε τις δυνάμεις μας και προστατεύσαμε ένα βιότοπο ουραγκοτάγκων και άλλων άγριων ζώων, αξίας ενός εκατομμυρίου δολαρίων. Αυτή είναι η τελευταία δράση για να εξασφαλίσουμε ένα ασφαλές μέλλον για τους ουραγκοτάγκους της Ινδονησίας και όλα δείχνουν πως μπορούμε να νικήσουμε τη μάχη!
Με ελπίδα και απολαυστικότητα,

Dear friends,
http://www.avaaz.org/en/aceh_rainforest_petition_loc/
Last year over a million of us successfully froze the plan to kill orangutans but the battle to save them is heating up again and unless we raise our voices once more - we could lose the last place on Earth where orangutans, tigers, rhinos and elephants roam free together. Click below to sign the urgent petition: |
Last year over 1.3 million of us called for the protection of the last
place on Earth where orangutans, tigers, rhinos and elephants still roam free
together. Amazingly, we froze the proposed plan that would have destroyed vast
swathes of pristine rainforest in Sumatra. But now the local government is
gearing up to revive the destruction, unless we act.
Palm oil, paper and mining companies stand to make money from developing this delicate ecosystem, and their pressure on the government to start cutting trees is working. But Europe holds the key to an even more powerful trade incentive for Indonesia, and experts say if the EU Ambassador speaks up now, he could protect the orangutans for good.
Conservation organisations in Sumatra are doing their best to get his attention but they’re asking for our help to amplify the urgent call. Let’s shine the global spotlight on the EU Ambassador to make sure he acts before it is too late. Sign now:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/aceh_rainforest_petition_loc/
Approval of the plan to free up this enormous area of forest for mining, paper and palm oil plantations is an environmental disaster of catastrophic proportions. This place is the last chance for many species already in serious trouble.
As the EU Ambassador for Indonesia, Olof Skoog, can provide the political and technical support needed for the local government to properly review the current destructive plan and convince them to protect the most fragile part of the rainforest. There is considerable momentum already towards this solution with individual EU countries taking an interest but it needs to be a coordinated approach to have a strong impact and the Ambassador is the best person for the job.
The EU has been a major donor to sustainable development in Sumatra and Mr. Skoog should feel obligated to ensure that the gains made through this investment are not being put at serious risk by this destructive plan. Insiders say the only reason he’s not taking action already is because he hasn’t realised just how important this issue is and what he can do.
The biggest battle to save this rainforest is yet to be won. Let’s raise the volume of the call to the Ambassador and let him know we’re relying on him to save one of the most important forests on the planet. Click below to sign the petition:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/aceh_rainforest_petition_loc/
Against all odds, we already helped delay the approval of this plan -- ensuring the national government took action to amend it. Then we came together and saved one million dollars worth of habitat for endangered species including orangutans. This is the last step to win a safe future for orangutans in Indonesia, and the players are all in place to make this a win!
With hope and determination,
Lisa, Emma, Ari, Sayeeda, Emily, Ricken and the whole Avaaz team
