Hi Daniel,

We appreciate both your posts and activism!

Thanks for sharing your healthy ideas.

There is a much better chance of MoveOn starting a campaign about an idea once we see that our members are in favor of it. To that end, we give you the tools so you can act directly on your idea by raising awareness through MoveOn.org Petitions, the site where anyone can create their own online petition quickly and easily.

To get started, go to:

http://petitions.moveon.org (http://petitions.moveon.org)

and click on the link at the top of the page to “Start a Petition.” You’ll find a step-by-step process to create a petition, with suggestions on how to make your petition as effective as possible each step of the way. You’ll also find guidance on how to get signatures for your petition, how to work with your petition signers to grow your campaign, and how to deliver your petition to your campaign’s targets effectively. MoveOn petitions have been used to create change on the local, state, and national levels on issues ranging from neighborhood association rules to student loan rates.

Rather than—or in addition to—starting your own petition, you might want to search for keywords to find other petitions on your issue and join current petition creators’ efforts by signing and promoting their petitions. You can search for petitions by using the “Search for Petitions” box located on the left side of the home page, under “Start a Petition” tab.

Thanks for all you do.

MoveOn,

Yes, we are fighting for the environment. I agree an issue when wealth is used to rape the planet. I believe no one is addressing the elephant in the room, population. Every additional American means:
less habitat
less wilderness
more demand for water
more demand for food (and usually, too much meat)
more demand for electricity
more demand for roads, schools, stores and everything else!

For the record, I am sixty four, never married no children. My sister is sixty six, never married, no children. My nephew and niece are both in their thirties, single, no children.

What can I do to help.
