Petition - Save the Mekong River
On June 18, representatives from the Save the Mekong coalition will meet Thailand's Prime Minister and hand him a petition urging the region's governments to abandon plans to build 11 big dams on the Mekong River's mainstream.
These dams, if built, would block the major fish migrations that feed and provide income for millions of people.
Over the past three months, partners of the Save the Mekong coalition have worked hard to gather over 10,000 postcards with signatures and personal messages from citizens in the Mekong countries and around the world. Another 2,500 people have signed the online Save the Mekong petition.
We're making a final push to collect as many signatures as possible to send a clear message to the region's decision-makers.
Please help this effort and sign the petition - by Wednesday June 17 - urging the Prime Ministers of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam to keep the Mekong flowing freely.

Thanks for you support,
Save the Mekong Coalition
