If anyone has any suggestions and/or remarks please e-mail me. Global Warming: Targets: Oil companies: 1.Texaco: In addition to being a major source of greenhouse gases through the burning of gasoline, Texaco left Ecuador's rain forests and water polluted with oil according to:www.igc.org/trac/corner/worldnews/other/other13.html 2. Shell Oil: In addition to being a major source of greenhouse gases through the burning of gasoline, Shell oil left Nigeria with its forests and waters polluted with oil. Information obtained from: www.igc.org/trac/gallery/shell/boycottshell.html. 3. Chevron: In addition to being a major source of greenhouse gases through the burning of gasoline and other oil products, Chevron allegedly funds "anti environment" front groups. Information obtained from: www.ran.org/ran/what_you/boycott.html. 4. All other oil companies also are major sources of greenhouse gases. It is recommended that we boycott all gasoline stations related to these companies and their oil products and instead buy from British Petroleum (BP) because BP has recently pledged to cut its greenhouse gases by 10% and to research and develop alternative forms of energy. This information was obtained from www.eDF.ORG/pubs/EDF-letter/1998/Nov/a_BP.html Others: In Kyoto the industrialized nations insist on greenhouse emissions trading where they can sell emissions credits to poorer countries who produce less emissions in order for the industrialized nations to avoid decreasing their own emissions. This is particularly true in the USA - largest emissions producer of the world and the EU. For this reason it is asked that we boycott their products as much as possible and buy products from the developing countries instead. This information was obtained from CNN.com. I found many boycotts on the web. The important thing for us to do is to concentrate on a few rather than on many different ones so that we may have more of an impact. Of course the choice is yours. For more information please visit the above sites or e-mail myself. The next list will focus on Rain forest destruction.
