I think the message “you don’t have to join us” is very inappropriate at a time when we DO need to be getting together and taking collective action against the powers that are leading us to climate disaster.
Paying someone else to go puke on a ship so you can stay home on the sofa is all well and good, but it’s not gonna get the job done.
JOIN US!!!
(nice video tho)
It is all very well saying people are just sitting on a sofa at home, but for some of us we have no other choice, I and many others are disabled and live on a disability benefit which is no mean feat at times. I would love to be out there helping and was in my youth. I would love to send money and will if I win lotto. However these things are not possible so all I am left with is writing protest letters to various governments and groups in the hope that things might change, I also re-cycle, re-duce and re-use and in my heart I cheer Greenpeace on, that is all I can do. My belief is .. if we all do a little bit, it will make a whole.
Hi Bob - I suppose you can interpret in different ways but the way I do (and I think Sallie has) is that there are lots of things people can do that are just as important as the more confrontational actions that Greenpeace is known for. I don’t think we’re suggesting that anyone should stay at home on the couch.
The ad promotes becoming involved with Greenpeace by subscribing to our cyber-activist network not giving any kind of financial support (although that is always appreciated too!).
