Another Anti-Mosel Bridge Petition -- May 15 deadline

[Claude Kolm]

There is an official German government petition against the bridge that you can sign online. The petition is in German, but attached to this email you will find step-by-step instructions in English. Please visit this web site:
And then follow the instructions.

It will take you a few minutes to get through the registration process so that you can sign the petition. We know how busy you are, but we implore you to take the time. It is imperative that we stop this bridge, and we need 10,000. So far only 5000 have signed.

What is the website?

Claude:

If you've already outlined the reasons to oppose on the board (or elsewhere), could you put a link in, please?

Thank you.

This is all coming a bit late.

I signed a petition last summer, and then another one in the fall, I'm not sure what to think except I've read some very pessimistic statements that expect it to be built.

There was consultation on this throughout the '90s as well.

How many different petitions are going and is there even a remote shot?

This article, which ran in the Times last Tuesday, indicates that there is a (remote) chance of stopping it: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/12/world/europe/12mosel.html?scp=1&sq=mosel bridge&st=cse
