Dear Friends,
More than 430 people have already written to the European
Parliament,
demanding a stronger Waste Framework Directive. If you have not yet
acted, please visit this site and act now -- the vote is
tomorrow!

Thank you,

Act now to stop European Union waste policy from taking a step
backwards!
Act here:

The European Union is now negotiating a new Waste Framework
Directive
which will establish waste policy for all 27 countries in the EU,
and
affect the entire globe.
Although earlier votes on the law strengthened waste policy,
backroom
deals with governments in the European Union have resulted in a
drastically weakened and biased proposal even worse than the
previous
law! This policy is set to influence governments around the globe
that
look to the EU for environmental policy leadership, and make it
harder
for GAIA members to improve national waste laws.
We have to act NOW to convince the European Parliament to stand up
for
health and the environment, for sustainability and sensible
resource
use. Join GAIA members around the globe in denouncing the archaic
proposal of directive and calling on the Parliament to reject
it.
Act now!
