Dear Secret Service

As an act of civil disobedience I'm risking a $5,000 fine and six months in prison (under U.S. 18  U.S.C. 331) for this line I penned and have been printing on every bank note that passes through my hands, but it's a chance I'm willing to take to send the White House a message.

Today Google says: Your search - "It's time to mother nature" - did not match any documents.

So it seems this line has neither been written nor read before. Let's see how long it takes for all us greenies to change that.

Much agreed that the government needs to wake up. Interesting and creative approach. I hope it works. It seems that they do not understand what is occurring. The most recent ground swells are around the sun. World governments seem to be taking no notice. From Canadian study/scientists: "Solar scientists predict that, by 2020, the sun will be starting into its weakest Schwabe cycle of the past two centuries, likely leading to unusually cool conditions on Earth. Solar activity has overpowered any effect that CO2 has had before, and it most likely will again. If we were to have even a medium-sized solar minimum, we could be looking at a lot more bad effects than 'global warming' would have had." It amazes me that the US government does not sponsor more real research for what is happening with "Mother Earth." I will look out for those bills in the US and hope it catches on.

Absolutely wonderful idea. I would like to do the same thing in Canada and might just start. It would be great if people could just order the stamps (of course we can source and make our own).. but you might want to know how many are ordering them. I love the slogan and as a mother, agree that nature is in real need of some tender loving care!!!

I also think it's a great idea. Would like to do this in South Africa, where we are. No need to use the same line, but the same message is certainly needed. keep green!

Hi!
That's a terrific idea! I'm on it! And I think that this stamp idea Green had is a good one, I'll definitely buy one of those to put on all the notes that I have.

Cheers!

I don't think putting a stamp on a bill is considered destruction of it (just guessing that that is your law reference). My proof would be the "Where's George" movement that involves writing and stamping information on currency.

Either way, good luck with your grass roots campaign!

Like many, I think this is an important message and I have linked this article to my own website. It be interesting to see what will happen. We should all do it where we are living.
