I'm not a member of Greenpeace.
I am a member of the Sierra Club.
I also attend a place called Northland College, an Environmental/
Liberal Arts College located in Ashland WI. It's a really cool
place, has a great environmental studies program and I've really
learned a lot here. 
About environmental issues..... I thoroughly enjoy how much 
paperwork various environmental organizations have sent me to
try and join their causes. 
I personally try and do things myself... like reading the newspaper, 
finding out about issues that concern me and than sending mail 
to my local representatives and to my congressmen and women to try
and get changes enacted. 
The latest thing that I found time for was the Bad Actor Mining Bill
which was trying to get passed in Wisconsin. It would have basically 
forbid the EPA and other state government agencies from granting mining
rights to companies who had been fined more than $10,000 in the past 
several years. The debate focused around exxon and their desire to dig a 
mine in Mole Lake... A very pristine area which also happens to be close 
to a Native American Reservation. 
Now that I've babbled for 20 lines... oh well. Anyway, I'll probably post 
here frequently, so I'll babble more later.
