In the past politicians made strong commitments to restore biodiversity and water quality, but they have not honoured these commitments. Sign this petition to tell the EU to step-up their efforts!

With all the focus on the economic crisis, many politicians risk forgetting about the much bigger ecological crisis we face.

On July 11th at 3pm, hundreds of thousands of people will be jumping into rivers and lakes all across Europe as part of the Big Jump.  This will be used as a springboard to urge Europe's politicians to honour past promises and step up their efforts to protect our biodiversity.

Sign this petition to help the European Rivers Network and European Environmental Bureau to tell politicians that it's time to take action.

Want to join the hundreds of thousands or Europeans Jumping this July 11th at 3pm? Visit the Big Jump website and follow it on Facebook.
