Reclaim the fields Camp 2011

21.-30. September

in Rosia Montana in Romania

This week's show looks at the health impacts of chemical pollution. At home, profit maximisation is steadily toxifying the environment of North America as corporations hide behind deceitful and outdated legal guidelines. In Nigeria, we see how $hell are blatantly dumping whatever is expedient, using a mixture of lawyers and violence to try to stifle objections. We conclude with a 2005 recording about the damage of pre-natal exposure to environmental toxins.

According to the mainstream media, the nuclear accident is all over. Just the opposite is happening. Historic high levels of radioactivity. Reactor 1 totally melted down. Mega radiation released again. Unconfirmed rumors of another reactor fire. What we need to know. Summary of all latest news.

As a result of the alarming rise in temperatures, the outbreak of forest fires right across Britain, and the worldwide escalation in global warming disasters, an appeal is being made for Network X to hold an urgent consultation with all the activist groups with a view to moving en masse into the Hounslow area to create a futuristic eco-village to save the human race from being driven to extinction by the burning of fossil fuels.
Some of the original road protesters from the 1990s have already moved into Hounslow near Heathrow Airport in preparation for working with local residents to help them transform their derelict run-down Dickensian neighbourhood into the world's first fully sustainable eco-town as the earth faces unprecedented ecological cataclysm.

In their pursuit of development and industriali$ation, Morales and the MAS government of Bolivia are trampling indigenous communities and the environment. There is a widening gap between their rhetoric and their actions.
This road would mean death for the indigenous communities there, as the area is opened up to exploitation for oil, timber and cocaine. The indigenous representatives of the area have made a unanimous decision to reject any road that passes through their land. They have a legal right to consultation. This consultation has never happened.

The world's largest fast food chain once ran a commercial of hamburgers growing in garden patches. For millenia, slaughterhouse torture has been hidden from children and adults. AETA, passed with the help of slaughterhouse state senators, California Senator Dianne Feinstein's husband Richard Blum and the FBI, is an unconstitutional law which limits animal rights activists' 1st amendment rights to expose brutality to animals. Now Minnesota,
Iowa and Florida legislators want to hide further the abbatoir torture caught in video such as those above. A ban on filming would help those who profiteer from mongering cancerridden, ecoli saturated cadavers of murdered animals. One Minnesota Health Dept official said giving rare meat to a child is a form of chlid endangering akin to driving 95 mph on the highway. A California dairy operation film showed injured cows being pushed with forklifts into a chain link fence.

The Stop Nuclear Power Network  http://stopnuclearpoweruk.net staged a four-day anti-nuclear camp on the beach beside Sizewell nuclear power station in Suffolk, eastern England from 22-25 April 2011. Campers marked the 25th anniversary of Chernobyl, the world's worst ever nuclear accident, on 26 April 1986, and sent out a clear message: 'No' to nuclear greenwash, 'Yes' to sustainable alternatives.

The people of the world must now demand that the Chernobyl Option

Campaigners from the national Stop Nuclear Power Network are planning a packed programme of activities at Sizewell over the Easter weekend (22-25 April). (1).

The annual beach camp beside the nuclear power station in Suffolk, England, now into its third year, will have added significance this year due to the unfolding disaster at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant in Japan, and because it marks 25 years since the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe in the Ukraine.
