SHARED SURVIVAL 2008 Ecological Internet's Vital End-of-Year Fund-Raiser The No Ecology, No Economic Recovery Ever -- $75K or Bust Keeping Green Hope Alive, Funding Appeal http://www.climateark.org/shared/donate/
November 12, 2008 Dear Fellow Earth-Lovers, It is time for Ecological Internet's (EI) annual end-of-year fund-raiser, which provides well over half of our modest yearly budget. We absolutely must raise $75,000 before the end of the year, or our 15 year effort on behalf of the Earth using the Internet comes to an end. With the past year of innovation and success, and with your help, we expect to do so. As a key network participant, I would like to ask YOU to make a donation to support EI's vital non-profit work on behalf of the Earth. Please do so NOW at: http://www.climateark.org/shared/donate/ Ecological Internet (EI) -- guided by ecological science and using advanced IT networking -- promotes ambitious, sufficient ecological policies necessary to achieve global ecological sustainability. Our email network of tens of thousands of people -- including you, and millions of web users -- from virtually every country, seeks to bring about a higher level of consciousness regarding humanity's dependence upon the Earth for our shared survival. No one else is taking this approach at near the scale or level of success anywhere in the world. There is every reason to be hopeful EI will continue to be part of global ecological solutions. A major donor will match all individual gifts up to the goal by 50% -- you give $100, EI gets $150! You can make tax-deductible gifts using Google Payments, Paypal and find information to MAIL donations at http://www.climateark.org/shared/donate/ . You can also establish a regular monthly donation, or tithe, very important to EI for maintaining a regular cash flow. Please, please if you intend to donate, make your gift as soon as possible. We need a vote of confidence. Ecological Internet is a different, new breed of environmental organization. Two primary things set us apart: our biocentric message, and our use of technology. We provide services for free that are not provided anywhere else -- including ecologically rigorous news tracking, search engines, commentary and alerts. We are the only global action network committed to using the latest ecological science to devise and implement sufficient policies to save being and ensure humanity's shared survival. This week we launched New Earth Rising at http://www.newearthrising.org/ -- a new e-zine to rigorously examine these issues. Together, we must continue doing our ecological duty. Biocentric ecological advocacy must continue and expand during these times of economic crisis. Now more than ever, global green citizenry must support an ecological sufficiency agenda adequate to solve the variety of global ecological crises including climate change, forest diminishment, water scarcity and ocean dead zones. Bright green thought provides the answer to both economic and ecological sustainability -- and if we let down our efforts now, the global ecological bubble will be the next to burst. Simply, we need you. Coming off of two successful years of web development, a full Earth advocacy system is now in place. We deeply want to continue wielding these completed, one-of-a- kind technological campaign tools, with your help, to continue pursuing what is necessary to achieve global ecological sustainability. Please stick with us over coming weeks, whether you donate or not, as this "public broadcasting" type of funding appeal is what sustains us. We suggest a donation of $50 by all that can afford to do so, and more if you can. Smaller gifts are welcome, as are new major donors. The point is it all adds up and many small donations help EI maintain our exempt tax status. Please help get the ball rolling (the sums will grow quickly with the match) by making a donation NOW at http://www.climateark.org/shared/donate/ This really is quite important. Meeting the goal is a requirement to keep Ecological Internet -- a critical embodiment of green hope for the Earth -- alive and kicking. Give now, you and the Earth will be glad you did.
