Capable Grassroots Organizations

"Many of these grassroots organizations are far more capable of solving problems than are self-serving multinational corporations or government agencies. Most of them are local groups working long hours with minimal resources. So I say, now, more than ever, we need to encourage civil democracy by joining up, volunteering, or supporting these groups financially. We can still have a voice in democracy." - excerpt from Yvon Chouinard, founder of the company Patagonia. Excerpt appears at http://www.grist.org/news/maindish/2004/11/03/post_election/?source=daily
