Convergence In Support of Eco-Prisoners & Against Toxic Prisons June 11 – 13, 2016 in Washington D.C. International Days of Action Everywhere

ftp-image

FOR OVER A DECADE, June 11th has been a day of action in solidarity with environmentalists and anarchists imprisoned for their actions in defense of the Earth. The day has its origins in an international outcry over the extreme and unprecedented sentencing of Jeffrey Luers to 22 years in prison for damaging several SUV’s at a car dealership. Since its inception in 2004, the June 11th day of action and other acts of solidarity have been instrumental in winning shorter sentences or early release for eco-prisoners, including Luers himself as well as Eric McDavid, who was entrapped by an informant. Yet committed earth defenders such as Marius Mason, targeted in the FBI’s “Green Scare,” are still serving harsh sentences in maximum security prisons for taking direct action against earth destroying industries.

Gli alberi geneticamente modificati e la bioeconomia: Affari come al solito sotto una verniciata di verde

al1-kBV-U430101788156547isF-1224x916@Corriere-Web-Sezioni-593x443

Mentre il cambiamento climatico e la perdita di biodiversità minacciano la vita per come la conosciamo, lo stesso sistema che ha creato i problemi non vede l’ora di trovare modo di risolverli mantenendo tutto sotto il suo controllo. Il sistema industriale con i suoi corollari di furto di terra, estrazione di risorse e oppressione di vite animali e umane cerca di sopravvivere a ogni costo. Gli scienziati finanziati dalle industrie continuano la loro crociata per un mondo di biotecnologia, condannando qualsiasi specie o comunità umana che sia d’intralcio. Proprio come i primi conquistatori europei esploravano terre nuove alla ricerca di nuove risorse, così l’industria del biotech si propone di conquistare il tessuto stesso della vita per assicurare un futuro alla società industriale. L’industria del biotech offre una soluzione alla crisi del cibo, delle risorse e del carburante all’interno dei paradigmi della società attuale per cui la mercificazione della natura deve continuare infinitamente.

The Earth First! summer gathering will be kicking off next Wednesday in the Peak District. The annual camp is a chance for people and groups from across the country and beyond to get together to network, share practical skills, ideas and inspiration to help make our actions as strategic and effective as possible.

More than 230 workshops are available, including introductions & updates on different struggles as well as an eclectic mix of practical skillshares, such as computer security, hunt sabbing skills, night-time water-borne action practice, fence-climbing, using radios on actions, blagging and scamming, setting up infrastructure for camps & sites (plumbing, energy, occupying and defending land), legal, and so on.

If you want a week out in some gorgeous countryside and get some useful skills under your belt at the same time, then check out the full details here.
