What is Earth First?

Earth First! stands for the use of
direct action and nonhierarchical
organisation to confront, stop and eventually reverse the forces responsible for the destruction of the
Earth and its inhabitants.

It is not a cohesive group or campaign but a convenient banner for
those who want to find out more and people who share similar philosophies to work under.


In the UK people have been using
the Earth First! banner for direct
action since the early 90s – directly confronting and stopping road
building, the quarrying of coal, rock and peat, freeing our fields of
genetically modified crops, protesting against climate criminals, fighting corporate power and much, much more.


If you believe action speaks
louder than words, then Earth First! is for you. To find out more,

including how to get involved go to
our website: www.earthfirst.org.uk

Been looking at www.earthfirst.org.uk and found nothing about a winter moot. Went to a really good one once in Nottigham.

Is there a possibility of parking close to Sumac? If a carfull of people are brought a long way, where is the nearest place it might be safe to park a car? Might there be a Park and ride system? How much kipping space is there?

There is parking space close to the Sumac Centre,

If you wished to use a park and ride, then please get off Junction 26 of the M1 and park at phoenix park and get the tram in. Look at www.sumac.org.uk for more detailed directions.

There will be crash pad accomodation available.
