Subject: Two more dams on the Danube: A plea for help
>>**Hungarian Gov't Danube Decision Contravenes World Court Verdict**<<
Secretary of State Janos Nemcsok declared today, that instead of the
decomposed Nagymaros Dam, Hungary will build two 'smaller' ones.<P>
This statement made even the Slovak delegation astonished!<P>
We ask your help in protesting this decision which is
against the ruling of the World Court in The Hague!<P>
<STRONG>We can destroy the Danube and the only inland sea delta of Europe (the
Szigetkoz) only once!</STRONG><P>
This is *very* urgent - please write your IMMEDIATE INDIVIDUAL LETTER; you
can protest by writing to horn@mehp.meh.hu - the Hungarian Prime Minister
& p104@meph.meh.hu - the President of the Republic. Urge your senator to
speak out against this damaging and wasteful project.<P>
The decision flies in the face of the people's wishes, and makes a mockery
of Hungarian democracy. You can help change this situation! We ask for
the help of all environmentalist organisations of the world.<P>
Act before it is too late... <P>
Please help!<P>
