Welcome to Earth Action Network
Description
The Network was conceived in 1989 when Dr. Mha Atma Singh Khalsa, a Los Angeles chiropractor, decided he needed to do more than just heal his patients. He wanted to do something to help heal our planet. He read in an activist guidebook that a single letter on an issue received by a government or private entity was considered to represent the views of 100 to 1000 voters or consumers. So he began writing letters to elected officials, corporate presidents, and other influential people based on the information in the many newsletters and reports that he received from the many environmental and social action organizations of which he was a member.
At the suggestion of a friend, who pointed out that there were many folks who felt strongly about the health of our planet and would love to send the same letters, he developed a data base on his computer of friends and patients who wanted to send the letters. The idea grew quickly, and Earth Action Network was born.
Earth Action Network remains a small, non-profit, grassroots project, growing mostly by word of mouth. Dr. Mha Atma still writes the letters, with help from his wife, kids, and friends in stuffing the envelopes. Earth Action Network's new web site now allows members to download the letters directly or to receive them via e-mail. There are now members throughout the U.S.
