VISITORS to Lancaster City Centre at the weekend had the chance to sign an 'audible petition' for next month's World Summit.
North Lancashire Friends of the Earth invited visitors to their stall to decide which of four sounds representing aspects of the natural world, which are under threat, should form part of the petition.
Mary Chabrel, of North Lancs Friends of the Earth, said: "All over the world, multinational corporations are exploiting our natural resources at the expense of local people and the environment.
"We want governments to stand up to big business and impose rules that will ensure that corporations work for the benefit of everyone, not just their shareholders."
