Write to the European Commission for a forests law

UPDATE EU Forests Law

Write to the European Commission if you haven't already.

Dear Friends,

In just 3 weeks the EU Commission will hold a vital vote on illegal timber. Over 65000 people have already written to urge the EU to ban illegal timber. We need you to join those 65000 people now in supporting a ban on illegal timber.

Right now we are outside the EU commission with a huge Amazon tree from an area devastated by illegal logging. We are upping the pressure on the EU in the run up to the vote and every letter of support really helps our campaign.

The European Commission has ignored the need for a new law for almost five years. Even now European Commission President José Manuel Barroso is being lobbied by companies who profit from illegal timber to reject legislation. We need European Commissioners to vote "YES" to stop illegal logging on July 23rd.

Please write to the European Commission

Tom, Eoin, Juliette, Dietlind, Judy and everyone from the forests campaign.
