Climate Camp needs Us!

Next month the second Camp for Climate Action will take place in the South of England, near to Heathrow, the world’s busiest international airport. It will be a working ecological village using renewable energy, composting waste and sourcing food locally. The camp is for all who share a vision for sustainable living.

piddle powered clones are go!

We is into Palestina after many -ings: waitings, stressings, questionings, searchings....
We are meeting many active Israelis up for going through walls,
we did play with clown army friends in Jerusalem
and now we are proper starting with a 2 week project in Bethlehem tomorrow.
Thanks to everyone in Europe for all your support (even the knockers, the anti clowns, the zionist stooges and the negative energy vampires - you inspired us to keep doing this and never give up - so perversely thankyou too)

Sir David King told a committee of MPs that the country would have to prepare for extreme weather such as heat waves and "torrential downpours". Two weeks later, large areas are counting the cost of worst flooding this country has seen for over 50 years.

Floods around Nottingham : Trent and the Soar

On my tour of the affected areas around the city ..... I started through Chilwell, Beeston and Long Eaton, and on the River Trent, to Trent Lock. Then, down the River Soar into Leicestershire and the area between the Sawley Marina and the M1 motorway. Back along the Trent to Attenborough and the reserve there.

Nottingham Against Incineration and Landfill [NAIL]

This video shows it is a national issue, affecting many people and their communities.

There has been a large campaign, with much support over recent times. A planning application to extend the operation of the Eastcroft Incinerator in Nottingham was denied. WRG, the operators of the plant, appealed. This process has now been stopped and a new application has been lodged.

Now, folks have to go round again.

The film explains the background and dangers.
