• Coca Cola, Nestle and PepsiCo: Help us make low-cost roofs and jobs from waste plastic bottles
    Nearly 300 billion plastic bottles are thrown out each year, but this wasted resource can be used to make products and create jobs. Waste plastic is a global crisis that affects everyone and is a problem we can solve with the help of beverage companies. The Reuse Everything Institute (REII) has developed a technology that converts waste plastic bottles into low-cost roofs. We have also developed a program to get this technology into the hands of people around the planet that can install REII’s low-cost roofing while improving their environment and earning a living wage within their communities. We need the financial and logistical support of the major beverage companies to make this vision a reality. These companies created this global waste problem and benefit from the sale of these beverages, they should contribute a small amount to cleaning up the waste. The program developed by REII will help address the waste plastic bottle problem, create better low-cost roofing and make better jobs available. What's not to like? - Less waste, Less poverty; Better housing and a Cleaner environment - We all win! Help us get the message to these global beverage companies. Thank you for your support!

  • Vermont's Policy to shoot orphaned or injured fawns
    Earlier this summer, my neighbor found a dead doe in her woods. Soon, she heard the crying of two, days old fawns. She was told that if the Fish and Game Department was called they would shoot the fawns, so she listened to them cry of two days. When she told me, I went into the woods and was able to bring one fawn out. My neighbor and I cared for her for a week while I tried to find a safe rehabilitation center to bring her to. At the end of the week, just hours before transporting her to a safe place, a Fish and Game Warden arrived at my home while I was away, searched my property (without a search warrant), found the fawn on my back porch, seized her and shot her. This kind of cruel and traumatic behavior will continue each spring in Vermont unless people speak out and strongly object to this policy. Please help.

  • Support the Moral Monday protesters in North Carolina
    North Carolina Republicans—who control both houses of the legislature and the governorship—are on a rampage to pass some of the most right-wing laws in the country. They have ended unemployment benefits for 71,000 people, passed a voter suppression law that disenfranchises college students and people of color, and pushed a draconian abortion bill even worse than the one in Texas. But since April 29, a coalition led by the North Carolina NAACP has been staging weekly nonviolent protests at their statehouse, called Moral Mondays. So far, more than 900 have been arrested—but more keep coming back each week to keep up the pressure. Join Daily Kos in thanking these protesters for their persistence.

  • Tell Budweiser AND Its Affiliates Not To Sponsor Walking Horse Abuse!
    A Budweiser affiliate, L&H Distributing of Tullahoma, TN, is to be an official sponsor of the 75th Annual Tennessee Walking Horse Celebration in Shelbyville, TN later this month. This show is the epicenter of the worst horse abuse in the world. At last year’s show, 190 horses were chosen at random by U.S. Department of Agriculture inspectors and 145 of them tested positive for caustic substances that had been used to “sore” the forelegs of the animals to produce the exaggerated front end movement known as the "Big Lick". Soring is illegal in the United States, prohibited by the federal Horse Protection Act. Budweiser’s involvement with the National Celebration comes as a huge shock, but it seems that L&H Distributing Co., located in Tullahoma, has cut a deal with the cash-strapped show to provide alcoholic beverages for the first time ever at what has been previously billed as “a family event.”
