Tell Mr Smith...

Hi there,

A request for your help. The organisation Banktrack.org, a web operation tracking global finance, is running an online slide show displaying the pristine waterways and native forests before flashing scenes of mown-down forests. You can access this presentation by going to:

http://www.tellmrsmith.org/


At the conculsion of the presentation is a letter to Mr Smith, the new CEO of the ANZ Bank, Gunns' bank since 1995, has yet to decide whether it will fund the project. The bank has commissioned its own indepentent technical review, as it is a signatory to the Equator Principles on socially responsible lending practices. With the current liquidity crisis (post the sub-prime morgage fiasco and the consequent fallout), the inability to finance this mill may be our last hope of stopping it.

You can influence Mr Smith by sending this letter to him online. You can amend the letter if you wish.

And tell all your friends, please
