Put Friday 8th June 2007 in you diary -
International Day of Direct Action against Climate Change and the G8.

As the G8 leaders meet in Germany, intent on leading us further towards catastrophic and irreversible climate chaos, we must shout, scream and roar ‘no more’. Now is the time to take direct action and shut them down, them and their climate criminal industry friends! The International Day of Action Against Climate Change and the G8 has been called by the International Rising Tide Network. This is a call for autonomous, decentralized actions appropriate for your town, city, or local area. Use this international day of action to support local struggles against oil refineries, gas pipelines, strip mines and coal-fired power plants. Find a weak point in the infrastructure of resource exploitation and throw a literal or symbolic wrench in the works.

For more information and agit-prop materials see www.risingtide.org.uk/g8 and  http://risingtidenorthamerica.org.

Direct action and civil disobedience are the rational response in this time of crisis. Their recipe for catastrophe will be met with our worldwide resistance!
