N30 Global Day of Climate Action / 10 yrs since Seattle!

N30 - November the 30th, or the Monday after next - is 10 years since a coalition of protest and campaign groups shut down the World Trade Organisation (WTO) meeting in Seattle. It was successful coalition building, direct action and brought anti-globalisation into the mainstream. The WTO has struggled to achieve any new bollocks since (though it has managed to use it's existing bollocks to bad effect). Here's a hastily put together flyer/poster re the n30 climate day of action.

The 300-350 Show: Climate Justice Fast

15-11-2009 20:44 | COP15 Climate Summit 2009 | Climate Chaos | World

As the UN climate talks end in Barcelona, the prospects for getting a fair deal which will be strong enough to stop catastrophic climate change are looking slim. In response, a handful of people in Australia and the US have started a hunger strike for Climate Justice.

#COP15 Climate Treaty set to Fail: Time for Action

06-11-2009 11:51 | COP15 Climate Summit 2009 | Climate Chaos | World

The grim (but not unexpected) admission that the COP15 UN Climate summit next month will not secure a new treaty on climate change has finally been made (see links below).

Those watching the developments over the last month will not be surprised. Each day seemed to bring another statement pushing the hope of a deal back further and further.

Over the last week at the Barcelona pre-COP15 talks, there have been crisis meetings to discuss fall-back positions. The African bloc walked out with the support of the G77 group of 130 countries, with further support from other countries and NGOs whilst campaigners demonstrated in the streets and blocked entrances (see

The 300-350 Show: Our climate is not your business

01-11-2009 18:51 | COP15 Climate Summit 2009 | Climate Chaos | World

In the wake of International 350 Day and direct actions in the US & Europe we ask, isn’t it time that we stopped business putting the brakes on climate action? In a break from our usual format we weave recent highlights from the independent media landscape into a corporate-critical narrative.

The 300-350 Show: Forests & Copenhagen pt.2

01-11-2009 14:47 | COP15 Climate Summit 2009 | Climate Chaos | Ecology | World

As Europe stands accused of blocking the protection of intact natural forests and introducing logging-friendly language into the UN draft climate deal, we take a look at some of the key components that should be in an effective deal for saving the world’s forests. As Nathaniel Dyer of the Rainforest Foundation UK explains, saving forests is about a lot more than simply throwing money at the problem. Land rights, governance and demand management are also critical. And payment for forest protection should come from public funds rather than carbon markets.
