Avaaz.org - a new global web movement with a mission to close the gap between the world we have, and the world most people want - has launched a petition to be delivered to PES President Poul Nyrup Rasmussen next Tuesday. The petition `Global Financial crisis: act now!' calls on European, US and world leaders to fix the fundamental flaws which made the global financial crisis possible. The petition is being delivered to our PES President because of his work over the last eighteen months on financial market reform, and because the reform package he has steered through the European Parliament will be voted on Tuesday 23 September.    

Let's help make this timely and important initiative a success! Please sign the petition and forward it to you friends.
