SAVE Saligao: An URGENT Appeal

Dear Saligaokars, Saligao lovers and well wishers,

Garbage has been killing Saligao, Goa from 1987.
For 27 years, coastal and hotel garbage has been dumped in a huge, 60 ft. deep, quarry on our hill. Our Salmona spring and wells and those in Calangute and Candolim are polluted.

The SCCC has decided to file a Writ Petition and appeal for funds.  Please be generous with Saligao...Goa...the planet.

Warm regards and solidarity.  - Muriel & Mario.

This is anOTHERvideo clip....

It is called 'Save Goa From Destruction', a 40 second, silent movie by a publisher named 'GoaClips'.

Says the producer: "It is a video depicting the destruction of Goa's natural surroundings if the wrong people come to power...."

This clip was made before that fateful electoral day on 2 June 2007...

It leaves you speechless to know how powerfully you can say something in just 40 seconds...without uttering a word!

Let this 40 second video scream at you!



Well, well, well...so going by the current, dysenteric 'tamasha' in the sewers of power (that is what those hallowed corridors have been reduced to) do we have the wrong people in power once again, or do we have the wrong people in power?!

Thanks GoaClip for a brilliant plea!
