CONGO: World's Second Largest Rainforest To Be Destroyed
By Forests.org, Inc.
The alert has been updated to now target the UN as well. Alert participation has not been as high as desired. Consider that similar protests in Papua New Guinea have helped reduce industrial logging of primary rainforests by 80%. Who will protect the World's last wildlands if not you?
Please forward this alert widely, organize supporting protests and visit the alert again to send your message to the UN. This is tremendously important. If industrial logging becomes established in the Congo to the degree it has elsewhere, there is little hope that Congolese rainforests - and their ecosystems, species and peoples - will be sustained.
