:Thanks.  There is actually very good background on wikipedia about this issue.  But also there is good background on Greenpeace, including a link you removed from 'features' that describes *exactly* how to use a system just like this one (consumerium), very effectively.  Also cross-participation with NGO boards is important.  So you could put it as a reference, but I don't agree that link is unnecessary, and I also think that coordination with [[w:bushmeat]] campaigns to prevent [[w:ape genocide]] is probably the single greatest place this project could have impact:
