This is a mini list of independent media center websites providing info over relatively unknown facts:

At the beginning one is skeptical, then reading through them one gets angry and willing to be proactive and change the world, then realizes it's too difficult and creates a blog..this.
Some corporations don't react to these provocative actions because they are aware of the "too-tired-to-act-reaction" but some others decide to partner with NGOs. They may do it for greenwashing but maybe not. I would like to understand it.
Please help me collecting info on partership/strategic alliances between corporations and NGOs. If you know of any, please post it here.
If I don't get too lazy I'll create more posts.
