Not the Climate for Just Climate Justice Mobilisations in Colombia

A blog post from Colombia where I work with The Network for Solidarity with Colombia. (www.redcolombia.org)I am between taking part in an event about Climate Justice and accompanying the Minga for Social and Community Resistance, which provoked some personal reflections on what organising against climate change means in Colombia, and what we can take from this in our climate change activism here in the UK.

The folly of foolishness that is City Lofts tower. (sheffield)
08-10-2009 17:27
underclassrising.net knew some time ago that MILLIONS of pounds of Government money (that's tax payers cash to me and you) is being used to bail out the developer of Sheffield's troubled City Lofts tower to ensure the scheme is completed, we can now reveal. Regional development agency Yorkshire Forward decided to provide the funding - to prevent the 32-storey development from being left as an unfinished concrete skeleton towering into the skyline.

more analysis on the Eon Kingsnorth annoucement
08-10-2009 15:13
EON confirmed to us that they are shelving any investment in Kingsnorth for 2-3 years, reasoning that a reduction in electricity demand in the UK due to global recession meant that new coal isn’t necessary right now, and that the marginal economics of coal now when compared to alternatives like gas mean they cannot justify an investment case. They are keen to stress this is suspension rather than a cancellation, that they remain committed to coal and CCS, and that they intend to remain part of the Government’s plans. What is significant is that we have turned the process of building plants like Kingsnorth in to such a drawn-out, expensive and unpopular mission that it is no longer worth the effort. Kingsnorth was originally expected to gain approval 2 years ago, with construction starting about now. Instead, there is still no decision on Kingsnorth, the Government still doesn’t have a coherent coal policy and the lifeline for new coal of money for CCS still hasn’t materialized. Worse for them, it is now not possible to build completely unabated coal plants at all in the UK, which means they have to take a risk on trialing an untried, untested additional technology. So it’s a very hard place to do business if you want to build coal.The Need For Industrial Unity: a question of anarchist organisational imperativ
