On july 4th, radical eco-activists set up a camp of action and resistance in the 60 000 strong Russian town of Otradny in the Samara region, a good 1100 km’s east of Moscow, and will stay there until at least the end of august.

similar experiences. We want all these voices to be heard.

counting on your help."
