[please distribute far and wide; excuse the exception to our normal policy of not sending anything but our monthly bulletin to the bulletin list] CALL TO ACTION: WORLD CAR-FREE DAYS 2002! It's coming! It's coming! World Car-Free Days is less than a month away. All that's needed now is for you or your group to plan and take action. People from Catalonia to Cameroon, from Tajikistan to Texas will be joining together for two weeks of actions and events calling for an end to the hundred-year reign of the automobile—"Fifteen Days to End the Auto Age"—September 13-27. You have lots of flexibility in the style, target, timing and theme of your action or event (see <http://www.carbusters.org/carfreeday> for the two-week schedule). But in order to make World Car-Free Days the massive success it deserves to be, three things are needed now: • groups to make plans and register their events at <http://www.carbusters.org/carfreeday> so we can tell the international media what's going on (and chase up reports after the event); • people to spread the word via word of mouth, via listserves and web sites, to the media, and directly to the public (on-line we have downloadable press releases and posters, as well as logos you can put on your homepage with a link to the World Car-Free Days web site); and • self-proclaimed autoholics to step forward, make a Car-Free Pledge and follow our Autoholics Anonymous programme over the two-week period. Above all, anyone considering action of any kind should contact Car Busters (carbusters@ecn.cz) as soon as possible. Thanks, and good luck with your plans! - The Car Busters team ____________________________________________ CAR BUSTERS Magazine and Resource Centre Kratka 26, 100 00 Praha 10, Czech Republic tel: +(420) 2-7481-0849 - fax: +(420) 2-7481-6727 <carbusters@ecn.cz> - <http://www.carbusters.org> ____________________________________________ World Car-Free Days: September 13-27! <http://www.carbusters.org/carfreeday> Car Busters Worldwide Contact Directory Register your group on-line now: <http://www.carbusters.org/directory> -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- SUST-MAR TIP: messages to sust-mar must be plain text format (no HTML) -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
