Together with the petitions and offline protest action tomorrow, another
thing we can do is join the website black-out initiated by the Computer
Professionals' Union, http://cp-union.com. For Drupal6 sites,
https://t.co/9hpxe9Ii, for those using Drupal7, https://t.co/bEunZn81.

These environmental groups have also blacked out their sites: The Center
for Environmental Concerns - Philippines, http://cec-phils.org and
Kalikasan Partylist, http://kalikasanpartylist.org, Kalikasan - People's
Network for the Environment, http://kalikasan.net.
