About Me

Life is an exploration..an adventure into the unknown..life is a thirst for knowledge and understanding..a reason to ask the questions why?.. a labyrinth of mazes, dead ends and openings for what end and for whom?..A drive for evolution?..an innate condition for future survival?..that, or for the humanistic and selfish drive to be happy and to say i was here..remember me??!!!

I am generally a very happy go lucky person..takes life as it comes and embrace most challenges..I adore books(mostly factual) and could never be without them..(ever!!)..I adore learning and people that have the patience to teach,in fact i admire them nearly as much as books..Sometimes i am deep..sometimes i can be selfish and shallow..I can be a puzzle to myself as much as life is a puzzle to most..that is what makes life so interesting and great..Nothing is ever certain!!!.

Dear friends around Europe,

Far from the eyes of the media, elected representatives in the European Parliament are writing a climate and energy plan for our continent. As citizens, we've campaigned hard for a global deal to stop catastrophic global warming, and Europe's negotiators have driven progress in international talks -- but if big polluters succeed in watering down Europe's own climate action plan, all our momentum will be lost.[1] And that's just what's happening right now.

This Tuesday afternoon, European parliamentarians are gathering to finalise their proposals -- but the whole plan is being undermined by industry lobbyists demanding they lock in massive "permits to pollute", which would put emissions targets completely out of reach for 2020 and beyond.[2] Before it's too late, in the next 48 hours, let's deluge representatives from our own countries with emails and phone calls -- urging them not to give in to the lobbyists, and instead to put forward strong plans to build a sustainable future for our societies, showing the world the way forward.

Just click the link below to see the names and phone numbers of the representatives from your own country -- we've added a few "talking points" you can use in your emails and phone calls:

68 people from 27 countries -- the members of the European parliament on its environment committee -- can fix this plan. And there are tens or hundreds of thousands of us in every one of these countries.

We're told that the most effective thing we can do is for as many as possible of us to email or call the offices of those representatives in our own countries (particularly those from the conservative EPP umbrella party, who have shown most signs of giving in to the lobbyists), making the case for them not to compromise on permits to pollute and other backward-looking loopholes, and asking them to invest in building a cleaner, greener future for Europe. At a time of economic difficulty and high fossil fuel prices, efficiency and sustainability become even more vital.[3]

Just click the link below for everything you need -- names, phone numbers, email addresses and suggestions about what to say. And don't delay -- we have hours, not days, to make a difference.

With hope and determination,

Paul, Pascal, Veronique, Graziela, Ricken, Ben, Iain, Milena and the whole Avaaz team

If you need a good book, read 'Also sprach zarathoustra', it's very enriching...
