A few days ago, here in Manaus, we kicked off a campaign for zero deforestation in the Amazon on board our newest ship, the Rainbow Warrior. Zero deforestation in Brazil is an ambitious goal, but the Amazon and those who call it home have suffered too much from out of control forest destruction.
But we cannot achieve this without the support of people everywhere. [You should sign] our petition to Brazilian President Dilma urging her to veto the disastrous new Forest Code bill. We know you are in. Now we are asking you to find just one person to join you and support our campaign to save the Amazon.
We have set up an easy-to-use tool that allows you to reach out to your friends and family and ask them to pledge their support for our work to save the Amazon.
Take a minute to find out if your friends and family are "in" by asking them to become a part of our campaign for zero deforestation in the Amazon today.
Our goal is to get 40,000 new supporters on board with our campaign and ready to stand up for the Amazon by the end of the month. That means we need you to find just one more person like yourself who cares about the fate of the Amazon.
If that happens, we'll have over 100,000 people here in the US alone. And it's that kind of support that I believe is needed to win this campaign.
Thank you for everything you've done already and I look forward to working together with you and your friends to save one of the most amazing places on earth.
From Brazil,
Daniel Brindis
Greenpeace USA Forest Campaigner
