 ****** ANNOUNCING *******

GREEN SCISSORS '96 -- a report targeting wasteful and environmentally
harmful spending and subsidies -- is now available on the world wide web. 
The full text of Green Scissors '96, which was released February 15
nationwide, can be found at http://www.foe.org/FOE. 

The report targets 47 programs and subsidies that could save taxpayers
$39 billion if eliminated. These include energy, public lands, water,
agriculture, highways, foreign aid and insurance programs. 

GREEN SCISSORS '96 is the product of a collaboration between taxpayer
groups and environmentalists called the Green Scissors campaign. Led by
Friends of the Earth, Taxpayers for Common $ense and the U.S. Public
Interest Research Group, the Green Scissors campaign includes more than 20
other groups like the Concord Coalition, American Lung Association, and
Sierra Club. Green Scissors '96 was also released by local groups in
dozens of states, many of whom are fighting unwanted federal projects in
their backyards. 

The web posting of GREEN SCISSORS '96 provides links to activists and
relevant web sites. The web site will be updated frequently.
