    Mail Art Can Save the World! or at least these black-headed gulls!

    You are invited to take part in a mail-art action 
    to save the nesting area of black-headed gull (larus ridibundus)
    and 14 other species of water-fowl on Krievu Island, Riga, Latvia.
     
    Your collaboration will help the Riga inhabitants 
    to save the micro-restricted area in the outskirts of city, nearby Bolderâja
    where, last spring, orinthologists observed 1500 couples of black-headed gulls.
    Only 20 nesting couples of birds are necessary to
    form a restricted area.
     
    Help us to stop the plan to destroy the area so it can be used to create a
    charcoal terminal.
    City Authorities wish to make money at the expense of these beautiful birds and
    the environment they share with local people.
    Let us not allow this to happen!

    Technique and size: free

    Deadline: May 20th 2007
    SO HURRY PLEASE!!

    Address:

    Bolderaja group
    a/k 42 Riga,

    Thanks for your help with this!
