The Commons, headquartered in Paris France, works to bring about a society free from the automobile by promoting car free days around the world. The Stonewall Initiative for Equal Rights works to uphold the rights of gay, lesbian, bi and transsexual people. The Organic Consumers Association fights to ensure we have safe, healthy food, free from genetic engineering.
