Earth First! Winter Moot - updates on agenda & more - 6-8th February 2009
reposter | 10.01.2009 02:29 | Climate Camp 2008 | Bio-technology | Climate Chaos | Ecology
The Earth First! Winter moot is an opportunity for people who feel affiliation with the ideas behind Earth First! to network, discuss and reflect on the ecological direct action movement and to plan for the future. In contrast with the yearly EF! Summer Gathering, which is held outside for around five days, the winter moot is a shorter weekend meeting, inside, less aimed at skill sharing and more at looking where we are at as movement and where we want to be going.
A session is also reserved for discussing a UK mobilisation for the UN climate conference in Copenhagen late 2009.
Earth First! is not an organisation, but a banner for non-hierarchical organising and the use of direct action to confront, stop and eventually reverse the forces that are responsible for the destruction of the Earth and its inhabitants.
Topics that have been raised include (Updated):
- the Copenhagen climate summit with a number of people from Denmark coming over to talk about logistics, tactics and mobilisation
- the G20 summit in London
- Leave it in the ground / coal
- GM
- Rossport
- Strengthening the EF network: communication and security, actionupdate and gatherings
- Implications of the crisis
- Climate and migration / eco-activism and Noborder networks
There will be a Saving Iceland meeting on the Friday afternoon before the gathering.
The agenda is open. Please contact the organizing collective (moot2009 AT earthfirst.org.uk) know if you want to add anything, want to help with facilitation or have any other queries. You are welcome to use our PGP key below.
Suggestion: read the activist security guide on
http://www.activistsecurity.org/
There will be sleeping places arranged and food available at cost price from Friday evening. The program will start on Saturday at 10 AM. Please be on time.
Venue: Cowley Club, 12 London Road.

ps nectu is the new national police group that just tried to severley smear EF similar to the acronym gaotu, a famous freemason saying.
has nectu had fascist infiltration?, job insecurity or are they being pressured by people like the owners of Ryan air?, probably a mix. lots of good people working in government really need to keep an eye on them as well, seems like they are covering something up, yes there are alot of people in government& in corporations who support groups like EF when they can.
Most in NECTU probably think the smear was a great joke & none of the above is true, there is some truth to it though & its a fact that there are factions with in the pentagon & the NSC+NSA controlled by big business who do consider killing 4/5 of the planet as a option,a last option but a option none the less & theyve planned for it. This actually is one thing I can agree with people in Lobster magazine on, a source used by the gaurdian & many of the usually more reputable papers although I dont think it is what anyone in NECTU or most in government want this is true.If anyone had got to the top of such a system such as we have today they would consider it, isnt that what makes this system so wrong & why we need positive peaceful revolutionary change soon.
it would be wrong to take this off IMC,it breaks no guidelines, theres no good reason to & I dont want to cause a fuss cheers

ps nectu the new national police group that just tried to severley smear EFis funnily similar to the acronym gaotu, a very frequent freemason saying.
has nectu had fascist infiltration?, job insecurity or are they being pressured by people like the owners of Ryan air?, probably a mix. lots of good people working in government really need to keep an eye on them as well, seems like they are covering something up, yes there are alot of people in government& in corporations who support groups like EF when they can.
Many in NECTU probably think the smear was a great joke & that none of the above is true, there is some truth to it though & its a fact that there are factions with in the pentagon & the NSC+NSA controlled by big business who do consider killing 4/5 of the planet as a option,a last option but a option none the less & theyve planned scenarios for it. This is actually is one thing I can definetely agree with people in Lobster magazine on, a source used by the gaurdian & many of the usually more reputable papers although I dont think it is what anyone in NECTU or most in government want this is true.If anyone had got to the top of such a system such as we have today they would consider it as a scenario& practice in private & on models, its what makes this system so insaneley wrong & why we need positive peaceful revolutionary change soon. In fact they are worse than 4/5's far less than that would survive if anyone anywhere, with global warming happening faster than expected,nano,badly programmed ai military & gm hybrids.
its wrong to take this off IMC,what guidelines does it break??, its the truth.
