Post Potter stars back 'Make Poverty History'

Alan Rickman (Snape) & Emma Thompson (Trelawney) will feature in a 'click advert' showing their support for the very worthwhile 'Make Poverty History' campaign.

Quote:
Today in London and across the globe Make Poverty History launched the 'Click' ad. The advert uses a number of instantly recognisable celebrities from Brad Pitt to Cameron Diaz, Colin Firth to Emma Thompson, Kylie to P Diddy (to name but a few) who, click their fingers every 3 seconds. Each click symbolises the death of a child. Across the developing world, one child dies every three seconds from extreme poverty.
The campaign aims to encourage G8 governments to cancel debts, make trade fairer and give more and better aid to developing countries.

The 'click' advert can be viewed here.

To get involved in the campaign, please go here. From this page you can join the campaign, email Tony Blair, send a postcard to the prime minister and get a white 'Make Poverty History' band.

Information on how to get a white band, can be found here.

Thanks to *Snivellus* for the tip!

What's a G8 government?
G8 means "Group of Eight"
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G8
Quote:
The Group of Eight (G8) is the coalition of eight of the world's leading industrialized nations: France, Germany (West Germany to 1991), Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, (the G6, 1975), Canada (the G7, 1976), and Russia (not participating in all events), as well as the European Union. The hallmark of the G8 is an annual economic and political summit of the heads of government with international officials, though there are numerous subsidiary meetings and policy research.

The G8 leaders as of March 10, 2005 were:
The annual summits are often the focus of anti-globalization movement protests.
