Dear forum members,

I would really like if you would sign this petition. A Canadian Gold Mining company is suing Costa Rica for $1 billion for their decision to protect their rainforests than allow their forest to be mined for gold. I have been to Costa Rica and no personal description can prepare you of the beauty of the rainforests and untouched lands that have yet to see a bulldozer. I know there are several thousand members on Mantidforum, but dont know how many of you are active. So pleasr do your part and spread the word!

Thank you greatly,

Andrew

Signed. Think I read somewhere that another country, Ecuador maybe, was going to allow oil exploration in their rain forests after originally rejecting it. I'm not too sure what good internet petitions do but it can't hurt.

Thank you guys for helpin' out! Its a shame that some people just don't see the beauty in nature and very single-minded on getting money. When I signed it this morning, the count was at 169, 050. Now its at 219, 751! Im not really sure either Rick, but it can't hurt and makes us more aware of global issues like this.

Cheers,

Andrew
