ATWA
ATWA is an environmental organization founded by Charles Manson. The name is said to be an acronym of Air, Trees, Water, Animals, and to a lesser extent All The Way Alive. Its core beliefs are the preservation of Earth by eliminating pollution, making the planet able to keep sustaining life.
It is believed, especially by members themselves, that their philosophy was the starting point for world-recognised charities, such as Green Peace.
Sandra Good was imprisoned for 10 years for conspiracy to send threatening letters to corporate executives unless their corporations ceased polluting the environment.
System of a Down wrote a song on the album Toxicity about Charles Manson called ATWA.
