November 30, 200520 yr On December 1st, ONE: The Campaign to Make Poverty History will join with Gcast.com to launch the first ONE.ORG podcast. The World AIDS Day ONEcast will feature former President of South Africa Nelson Mandela, Bono, U2 lead singer and co-founder of DATA (Debt, AIDS, Trade for Africa) and Chris Martin of Coldplay, along with members of the faith community and other ONE supporters. A podcast is an audio recording, from a 10-sec sound to a 30- min radio show, stored as an MP3 file that is easily downloadable through the internet. Hosted by Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Peter Griesar, the ONEcast will be provided to the 2 million current ONE supporters and also be available for free on the ONE.ORG website and popular podcast directories. Every day in Africa, HIV/AIDS kills 6,300 people, 8,500 people are infected with the HIV virus and 1,400 newborn babies are infected during childbirth. New web technologies such as podcasting can help Americans raise their voices as ONE against the emergency of AIDS and extreme poverty, joining together to ask leaders to do more to save millions of lives in the poorest countries. WHAT: World AIDS Day ONE Campaign podcast WHO: Former President of South Africa Nelson Mandela; Bono, U2 lead singer and co-founder of DATA (Debt, AIDS, Trade for Africa); Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay; Faith leaders, artists and other ONE supporters WHEN: World AIDS Day, December 1, 2005 at 12:01 a.m. WHERE: http://www.ONE.org http://www.Gcast.com

December 2, 200520 yr "Hi, I'm Chris from Coldplay. Unfair trade rules are keeping families around the world poor and stopping them from getting out of extreme poverty. But it doesn't have to be this way. Right now the world's most powerful governments are making deals that can either break this cycle of poverty or continue along the path that keeps millions of people living on less than a dollar a day. Please call the White House and tell President Bush that you support action to make trade fair. Call 1 202 456 1111, or visit http://www.maketradefair.com for more information."
