Jungles being cut

I want to encourage people to visit https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions and have a look at their current petitions. The website is a bit like Avaaz but completely focused on environmental questions. By signing a petition you can help influencing governments and international corporations. For example you could help stop a unique woodland from turning into a massive pulp tree plantation: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions/1125/mozambique-stop-a-giant-pulp-project-in-the-miombo-woodlands or ask EU officials to start taking plastic pollution more seriously: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions/1124/were-drowning-in-plastic-tell-the-eu-to-act
I guess a lot of people are here not only to earn money from posting, but because the power to the people-ideals that are important for much of the crypto world. Using crypto is a middle finger to the banks. A small one. But if there are enough of them it will be enough! So why not show the middle finger to selfish mining companies, polluting the planet to enrich themselves?
Here you can see a list of successful petitions, that has helped create national parks, stop mining projects etc: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/achievements
