Blog Action Day 2009 Pilipinas take a stand against climate change
Bloggers Kapihan once again spearheads the Philippine version of Blog Action Day. It’s happening on October 15, with this year’s topic being Climate Change.
The theme is more relevant than ever with the onslaught brought about by Typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng.
We cannot be apathetic or cynical. We as a people have the solemn duty to accept the reality of climate change, to study it, and to take a stand.
Bloggers Kapihan thus calls on Filipino bloggers to take time out on Oct. 15 to post your thoughts and aspirations, frustrations and hopes, photos, videos and stories, on climate change and how it affects our family, community, country and the globe, and how we wish to make things better.
Local organizations such as TXTPower, Kabataan Partylist, Kalikasan-People’s Network for the Environment, Agham, Computer Professionals Union, and Philippine Climate Watch Alliance all support this blogging event. Have a post ready by next week and grab the badge to put on your blog!
Bloggers Kapihan initiates cyberprotest against Con-Ass on July 26
Bloggers Kapihan is inviting everyone to participate in the cyberprotest against the Constituent Assembly or Con-Ass this July 26, one day before President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s last State of the Nation Address (SONA).
I’m not sure if this is the Philippines’ Blog Action Day movement for the current year, but considering it’s one of the biggest issues plaguing the nation today, it probably is. Take note of how you can participate in this cause thru blogging, texting, and joining Facebook groups:
Sa araw na iyon, isulat natin sa ating mga websites, blogs, at status updates kung bakit ayaw natin sa con-ass.
Narito ang mga iminumungkahi naming gawin natin sa Linggo:Blog Action Day. Mag-blog tungkol sa con-ass at gamitin ang anti-con-ass banners sa NoToConAss.com
Online petition. Lumagda sa Kabataan Kontra Cha-cha online petition.Text vs con-ass. Ipada sa 09071134503 ang message sa ganitong format: [no2conass] [space] [your message].
