Pakistan: governments must do more
Hi,
Record floods have torn through Pakistan, leaving millions of people without shelter, food or water.
The UN has urgently appealed for $460 million to provide critical relief for flood-ravaged Pakistan. But so far, donor governments have only committed 60% of this. Without more aid now, millions of people could die. I just sent a message to key donor governments asking them to step up their relief efforts and I thought you might like to join me: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/pakistan_needs_relief98.php?CLICK_TF
You can read more about this initiative below.
-------------------------
Dear Friends,
A humanitarian catastrophe of terrifying proportions is unfolding in Pakistan, with a fifth of the country under water, and millions of people homeless and desperately needing assistance.
Some relief efforts are underway, but the international response to the mega-disaster has been irresponsibly slow and weak -- the UN has urgently appealed for $460 million of vital aid, but just 60% has been committed.
Relief workers warn that without an immediate increase in aid the death toll could sky-rocket. We can help by sending funds directly to the most reliable aid organizations, and by pressing our governments to step up their efforts. Let's show our leaders what generosity looks like, and demand that they join us. Click here to send a personal message to key donor governments:
And click here to donate to the relief effort:
After visiting the flood stricken areas, a visibly upset UN General Secretary, Ban Ki Moon, said "This has been a heart-wrenching day for me. In the past, I have visited many natural disasters, but I have never seen anything like this."
Thousands of towns and villages have been washed away -- roads, buildings, bridges, crops. Now people are stranded on tiny islands surrounded by flood waters. With no clean water to drink, cholera, diarrhea and other sicknesses are on the rise, threatening the millions of people who have lost their homes and livelihoods.
The international response so far has not matched that of previous large scale disasters. Organisations like UNICEF and WHO have said they lack the funds to provide adequate assistance.
The governments of the world need to do more, and we can lead by example. Let's stand with Pakistan at this time of crisis, and ask important donor governments to do the same.

Our community has risen to the challenge of awful disasters before. In 2008, Avaaz members raised over 2 million dollars for the victims of Cyclone Nargis in Burma. Earlier this year, $1.4 million was raised for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. Our ability to move quickly in times of crisis can make the difference between life or death for people struggling to cope with disaster. Let's show the people of Pakistan that people and governments around the world stand with them in this awful crisis.
With hope,
Luis, Iain, Mia, Ricken, Paul, Giulia, Ben, David, Graziela, Pascal, Milena and the rest of the Avaaz team

Binge Eating: Practicing Control for Weight Loss
Binge Eating: Practicing Control for Weight Loss
There are a number of very dangerous eating disorders that effect people of all ages, races, sexes, and economic statuses. While you may hear a lot in the news about anorexia and bulimia, one of the lesser-known weight loss disasters sweeping the nation is binge eating. Binge eating is very bad for your body and can cause heart disease, diabetes, and a number of other medical conditions, which actually could result in death. Therefore, it is important to learn about binge eating and to seek help immediately if you think this could be a problem for you.
Binge eating is basically a form of overeating at its worst. There are times when we all overindulge in good foods, such as at a holiday or when eating out at a restaurant. However, a binge eater faces overeating problems more than a few times a week. Binge eaters often find themselves overweight and unhappy, which can make the situation worse.
Binge eaters will overeat to the extent that they feel sick. In many cases, they will eat thousands of calories in one sitting, and many of the foods they are eating are not very nutritional and include comfort foods. Binge eaters may enjoy sweet or savory foods, and may also have a problem with alcohol. In one day, a binge eater may eat more than the normal person will eat in a week. Foods that a person will binge eat vary and can even change for a particular binge eater from day to day.
Unlike people who are suffering from bulimia, binge eaters will not induce vomiting in order to rid themselves of the food they've eaten. Therefore, binge eaters tend to be overweight. In some cases, a binge eater may eat non-stop for an entire day, but then spend the next three or four days starving him- or herself and exercising vigorously in order to stay at the same weight if possible.
Binge eating goes hand in hand with a number of other physical diseases, but it can also effect a personal mentally and emotionally. Man binge eaters star because they turn to food for comfort as a way to work out their problems, which is unhealthy. Binge eaters are also usually very emotionally charged about their body weight and may experience depression because of it, regardless of if they are overweight or not. Binge eating is not only dangerous for the binge eater, but can affect everyone in his or her life. If you or someone you know is suffering from this disease, it is important to seek help as soon as possible. This is not a good way to lose weight.

Time for deadbeat donors to pay up!
Hi,
In the months after Haiti's earthquake pledges of aid came from all over the world – totalling more than $5 billion USD. However 6 months on, only 10% of this aid has actually been delivered to Haiti – compromising the country's ability to rebuild and prepare for the upcoming hurricane season.
Former US President, Bill Clinton as the UN special envoy to Haiti, has vowed to chase the countries with outstanding pledges, and we'd like to show him the world supports his efforts.
I just signed a petition asking world leaders to deliver the aid they pledged to Haiti as soon as possible.
Please join me by signing the petition here:
Together as ONE we can make a difference!
Thanks!
