Take Green Action| Here are some issues at the forefront in California: | |
| Ten Things | Ten things just about anyone can do to make the world a little greener. |
| Tragedy in the Gulf | The devastating oil rig explosion and subsequent spill is likely to create unimaginable devastation throughout the Gulf region. An even worse tragedy would be if we didn't seize this opportunity to end our addiction to oil once and for all. Visit EndOil.org or any of the following links for more information and actions you can take. Climate action -- Biological Diversity -- Protecting Wildlife -- Hold BP Accountable |
| Universal Health Care | Universal, single payer health care is still the most effective way to provide health care. See Health Care for All CA for more info. |
| Renewable Energy | Join WATTS UP America and support their effort to bring zero pollution, 100% renewable solar energy to Long Beach. |
| Electoral Reform | National elections since 2000 exposed massive problems across the country. We need to not only fix the voting mechanisms, but the electoral system itself, with such common sense, democratic ideas as proportional representation and instant runoff voting. The 2002 Long Beach Mayoral race and subsequent city council races are further proof that we need change. Check out the Center for Voting and Democracy's website for more details, or our own IRV action page for local actions you can take. |
| Redevelopment Reform | The Long Beach Greens have been fighting against bad redevelopment in Long Beach for years. A UCLA study (PDF, 600 KB) identified Long Beach as a case study for what's wrong with Redevelopment. Check out the Long Beach Citizens Against Eminent Domain Abuse website for current activities. |
| Bring the Troops Home! | Evidence has been mounting since before the invasion that the War on Iraq is a horrible, costly, and unnecessary bloodshed. Visit www.BringThemHomeNow.org or the Coalition for World Peace for ideas and actions you can take every day to help bring this war to an end. Also check out the Department of Peace campaign, to establish a permanent Cabinet level department charged with averting war rather than perpetuating it. What a wonderful concept! |
