Por favor, Assine e Divulgue a Petição Online "Quero que as estações de televisão portuguesas respeitem os animais"
Infelizmente, as estações de televisão portuguesas – RTP, SIC e TVI – enveredaram por um caminho já completamente aberto de promoção da violência contra animais.
A SIC, que era a única estação que se mantinha relativamente afastada do péssimo caminho de promoção da crueldade em que entretanto a RTP e a TVI já estavam lançadas, transmitiu recentemente uma tourada e estreou, também recentemente, uma novela (“Podia Acabar o Mundo”) cujo protagonista é forcado, onde a tauromaquia é glorificada e onde os touros são retratados como animais agressivos e perigosos – e os forcados e tauromáquicos em geral são corajosos e bons.
Uma vez que as três estações de televisão portuguesas estão de tal maneira apostadas em promover não só touradas como também insistem em apoiar e emitir espectáculos de circo com animais, apesar de se saber já mais do que suficientemente da vida miserável que estes animais têm sendo mantidos escravos em circos, é tempo dos defensores dos animais em Portugal boicotarem, de uma vez por todas, as estações de televisão portuguesas – enquanto estas não respeitarem os animais.
A ANIMAL acabou de lançar a Petição Online “Quero que as estações de televisão portuguesas respeitem os animais”, cujo objectivo é atingir um mínimo de 5.000 assinaturas, que serão depois entregues aos directores de programas destas estações, para que saibam que quem se preocupa com os animais prefere canais estrangeiros acessíveis por cabo ou satélite, ler um livro, ir ao cinema, ao teatro e/ou a um concerto, passar tempo com a família e com amigos, ler, passear ou simplesmente dormir. Tudo, menos dar um segundo de audiência que seja às estações de televisão portuguesas – enquanto estas mantiverem a conduta moralmente reprovável e socialmente deseducativa e obstrutiva do progresso moral que está a acontecer em Portugal relativa à sua promoção da violência contra animais.
Por favor, assine e divulgue a petição – que está online em:
Far from the eyes of the media, elected representatives in the European Parliament are writing a climate and energy plan for our continent. As citizens, we've campaigned hard for a global deal to stop catastrophic global warming, and Europe's negotiators have driven progress in international talks -- but if big polluters succeed in watering down Europe's own climate action plan, all our momentum will be lost.[1] And that's just what's happening right now.
This Tuesday afternoon, European parliamentarians are gathering to finalise their proposals -- but the whole plan is being undermined by industry lobbyists demanding they lock in massive "permits to pollute", which would put emissions targets completely out of reach for 2020 and beyond.[2] Before it's too late, in the next 48 hours, let's deluge representatives from our own countries with emails and phone calls -- urging them not to give in to the lobbyists, and instead to put forward strong plans to build a sustainable future for our societies, showing the world the way forward.
Just click the link below to see the names and phone numbers of the representatives from your own country -- we've added a few "talking points" you can use in your emails and phone calls:
68 people from 27 countries -- the members of the European parliament on its environment committee -- can fix this plan. And there are tens or hundreds of thousands of us in every one of these countries.
We're told that the most effective thing we can do is for as many as possible of us to email or call the offices of those representatives in our own countries (particularly those from the conservative EPP umbrella party, who have shown most signs of giving in to the lobbyists), making the case for them not to compromise on permits to pollute and other backward-looking loopholes, and asking them to invest in building a cleaner, greener future for Europe. At a time of economic difficulty and high fossil fuel prices, efficiency and sustainability become even more vital.[3]
Just click the link below for everything you need -- names, phone numbers, email addresses and suggestions about what to say. And don't delay -- we have hours, not days, to make a difference.
