Hello,
like so many others, I am deeply shocked and depressed about the Russian Invasion by Madman and Psychopath Putin into the Ukraine.
I wish there were more things that I personally could do to support the Ukrainian people and their government...well there are a couple of things that I think everyone can do and which can make a change when cumulated:
1) Go to pro-Ukrainian demos in your city as often as possible. This will not bother Putins criminal regime, but it can put pressure on your local governement so they see that people want them to DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.
2) Petition your local government with letters urging them to increase their support for the Ukraine, be it with a closing of the sky over Ukraine, sending military / humanitary aid (whatever you feel is the appropriate here). Most high-ranking politicians have email addresses for members of the public to send their concerns to. I have had no problems at all to find the email addresses for the German chancellor, the German minister of foreign affairs and the Bavarian Minister president. While they are unlikely to read your messages, I think that the cumulative effect of getting thousands of mails in suport of the Ukraine will have an effect!
3) Save Energy. Every liter of gas and oil that does not get burned here is another Euro that we don't pay to Russia and that is not avialable for this invasion that is a breach of everything that is human, civilized or right. For every person it is a small impact, but if many do it, the impact increases. So turn on heating only when you feel cold and not out of habit, think of running errands by public transport instead of the car, or even try walking or biking shorter distances. In addition to saving fuel, you will also be healthier.
4) Support local refugee organisations that welcome Ukrainian refugees. The people that fight for their (and our) freedom deserve to see their wives and children in a safe and good environment.
5) ??? There are probably more ideas that can be put into practice and that I did not think about. Feel free to add to this list whatever YOU think will be helpful to end this war!
best wishes
Annette
