Raw Almond Activism


FROM Rhio's RAW ENERGY HOTLINE
AUGUST, 2007 * (212) 941-5857
www.rawfoodinfo.com


1) Call Marsha at the Almond Board. 209 549-8262. First go to their web site and get all the facts so that you can arm yourself. www.almondboard.com

2) At the Almond Board number, they will probably first pawn you off to a machine that will record your message regarding the situation. You can leave a message, but a more effective way that really gets their attention is when you ask (demand) to speak to a real person which probably will be - uh oh - "Marsha". In order to speak with a real person, you may have to exert a little gentle pressure. When you do get someone on the phone, please be courteous... but persistent.

3) Plant an almond tree.

4) Contact your local papers and ask them to do a story on the issue.

5) Call your senator or member of the house of representatives and tell them about your objection to this regulation. Ask them to look into it.

6) Write letters to the editors of various papers.

7) Tell as many people as possible about the problem. Even people outside of the raw community may object to ingesting propylene oxide, or should as soon as they find out what it is and the potential for harm that it carries.

8) If you are a writer or blogger, let your group know about the issue.

9) Buy up some almonds from last year's crop and freeze what you will not use within six months. Refrigerate the rest.

10) Forward this email to interested parties.

11) Consider a boycott.

12) Contact health food stores and chains such as Whole Foods and tell them about the situation and that you want to be able to purchase raw almonds.

13) Call or write the USDA: http://curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=843322#i

14) The Almond Board is having an important annual Almond Industry Conference December 5-6, 2007, in Modesto Centre Plaza. Consider organizing a protest inside and/or outside of this meeting. Get info on the meeting from the Almond Board web site: www.almondboard.com

15) Send your feedback and suggestions for placing in the next hotline.

16) And somebody please, buy up some raw almonds from an organic almond farmer in CA and send them to me in NY, with a bill. (smile)

Thanking you in advance for "agitating and activating".
