Plastic

We have 24 hours to get to 1 million signatures, put our call up on a huge billboard, and deliver our voices in the key UN meeting! Add your name today to demand an end to plastic pollution: It's everywhere: in the rain, our food, even in the human placenta! Plastic is poisoning life on Earth. But finally there's hope. For the first time, more than 100 countries are now calling for a new global treaty to end plastic pollution! This is our chance to show huge global support for the most ambitious plan to end the plastic crisis. Add your name before governments meet – let's be deafening! Sign here Dear friends, We've seen it choking life in the deepest oceans and on the highest mountains. Now, shocking studies are finding plastic pollution everywhere: in the rain, our food, our drinking water, even in the human placenta! It's poisoning us, and life on Earth. But finally we have a unique opportunity to change this. Right now, the United Nations is considering a new ambitious global treaty to end plastic pollution. If countries agree to it, we have a real chance of cleaning up our planet! But big polluters are already trying to water down the proposal. It's up to all of us to show them that the whole world supports the strongest possible treaty to end the plastic crisis! Governments are meeting this week – click to add your voice, and forward it to everyone you can: Demand a Global Treaty on Plastics Plastic is toxic from the moment production begins. It's made from the same dirty fossil fuels that are driving the climate crisis. And it doesn't decompose! A plastic bottle breaks down into tiny, invisible pieces that can travel around the world through water and air, contaminating our seas, our rivers, and even our bodies! Even rain is polluted with plastic. Scientists in the US found that rain is flooding protected national parks with 1,000 tons of microplastics every year -- that's the equivalent of pouring over 120 million plastic bottles! This is a planetary emergency, and we need an urgent, coordinated international response. That's why more than 100 countries are calling for a binding global treaty, which could bring an end to the throwaway-plastic culture, and transition the world towards a future that protects people, wildlife, and our climate. But big oil and chemical firms, as well as a small group of countries, led by Japan, are already trying to weaken the plan. So we need to mobilise fast, and show our governments at the key UN meeting this week that people everywhere demand the most robust treaty to end the plastic plague: Demand a Global Treaty on Plastics We've done it before. Our movement spearheaded the mobilisations that led to the landmark Climate Paris Agreement, and more recently we mobilised from around the world to stop rich countries from dumping their plastic waste onto low-income nations. We know that such battles can be long, and treaties don't always deliver the results we need, fast enough. But this is the best chance we have ever had to kick-start a coordinated, international response – so we all have to speak out now, and keep pushing until we win a world safe from plastic.   With hope and determination, Spyro, Laura, Luis, Stefanie, Barbara, Huiting, Ine and the whole team at Avaaz In collaboration with the #BreakFreeFromPlastic movement.

Underaged

Twelve-year-old girls are forced to keep rape pregnancies, while hundreds are abused each year in Honduras.

Honduras has the second-highest rate of teenage pregnancy in Latin America. 50-80% of these are rape pregnancies. This is excruciating and women's groups in Honduras are calling for our support! Access to emergency contraception is banned, but the first-ever female President could legalize it with enough public support. Sign now to help these girls, and we will deliver our call along local groups meeting with the President: SIGN NOW Dear friends, Honduras, one of the deadliest countries in the world, is hell for women. Girls of 12 years of age are forced to keep rape pregnancies, while hundreds are abused each year. But things are about to change. The first-ever female president, Xiomara Castro, just took office and she could be one signature away from revoking a horrendous ban that humiliates women, especially rape victims. Honduras is the only country in Latin America that prohibits access to emergency contraceptives, a medicine used globally to aid girls, teenagers, and women bearing rape pregnancies. Women's groups are now calling on us to help pressure President Xiomara Castro. She already promised she would lift this ban, but if we show her there is massive global support, she will be empowered to defy those trying to stop her. Sign now in solidarity with all the girls and women of Honduras -- and we will deliver directly to the President. SIGN THE URGENT PETITION Violence against women is one of the most pervasive human rights violations in the world. About 35% of women globally have experienced physical or sexual violence, both intimate partner violence, and non-partner violence. This is even worse in Honduras. In 2017, more than 80% of pregnant women treated by Doctors Without Borders in Honduras said their pregnancy was a result of rape. But these violent pregnancies can stop – and President Castro is one signature away from doing it. Before she completes her first month in office, let's make sure President Castro understands her biggest mandate will be to prioritize women's safety, security, and dignity. She can start by legalizing emergency contraception, and then take up many more issues that are crucial to ensuring women's rights. Sign now and share widely: SIGN THE URGENT PETITION Back in 2012, our community campaigned to stop the law that aimed to ban emergency contraception in Honduras and we won! Then, a military coup brought back this shameful ban. It's time to support women's groups from across the country who are fighting day and night for a brighter future.

I'm a Tantra teacher, a Kundalini Yoga teacher, and a Tantric masseur, relationship, and life coach. My Tantric journey began over fourteen years ago. I graduated as a Tantra Masseur and Group Trainer at the Rasayana Tantra Academy in the Netherlands. Tantra became a way of living for me.

For more than nine years, I've been sharing my wisdom and journey as a teacher of Tantra.

While Tantra has several paths, I recognized that for me, Love and Sacred Sexuality is the most efficient way to improve my:
self-esteem
physical and mental health
intimate relationship
love to myself and others
vital energy – and all other aspects of life…
For me, sexuality is the most beautiful, intimate, and powerful expression of love. When I recognized how important this is in my life, I asked myself: 'If love is the most important necessity for humankind, where are our efforts and energies to contribute the Love and Sacred Sexuality in people's education?' By establishing Tantra Movement, I wish to help fill this great need.

In my life, I experienced sex as a way to hell – but I have been very fortunate also to experience it as a way to heaven. Now I'm bringing sexuality out of guilt and shame to it's rightful place of sacredness and honour. My destiny is to share Tantra and Love.

Trisha Croft ~
Owner and creatrix at Light of Lemuria
Trisha Croft is an international Clairvoyant, Medium, Healer and High Priestess who dedicates her life to the Goddess, she takes spiritual Goddess Gypsy tours to the holy lands of Egypt, Peru, Hawaii, teaches Goddess, Dance and Tantra retreats around the world, offers Readings, Online Training Mystery School of Isis and Priestess Initiations.
"In particular my main focus is on the Goddess and through that I help women reclaim their light, reconnect to their essence, to fully feel the divine feminine spark and bring forth the inner beauty of the Goddess to share that with all. In doing so I invite the men that join with us to experience that which they yearn for too – the re-connection to the source of the divine feminine within them, to see it in the women that share their lives and help them restore it to its rightful place and their world. By immersing in the journey we reconnect to the primal creative conscious forces that shapes and defines who we are and re-experience deeply once again to the sacred, that intangible essence that our ancient ancestors knew so well, that we modern humans have lost, perhaps devalued, discarded and denied in our distracted, disrupted modern world.. our connection to spirit."
