Peak Oil : High tide for an oil addicted world

2006 has seen awareness of Climate Change reach new levels and those who have said for so long that something should be done to reduce CO2 emissions are seeing action slowly – perhaps too slowly – beginning to happen.

The incredible levels of CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere are a result of the massive explosion of the human population in the 20th century and the resulting use of resources – especially the burning of fossil fuels –due to our rising living standards and expectations.

G20: A first communiqué from two uncitizens of Arterial Bloc

There have been many calls for Arterial Bloc to come forward and ‘justify’ their tactics during the [November 2006 Melbourne] G20 protests. The following statement is not a justification of specific actions; it is an exploration of politics. This statement has not been written for or on behalf of the Bloc; it has been written from within the Bloc. None of us can be leaders or spokespeople for each other. [this deserves a wider audience]

Whether in Oaxaca, El Alto, Buenos Aires or Porto Alegre - Latin America is a continent that has seen many social struggles and popular resistances in recent years.

Comprising 10 contributions, published in Spanish or Portuguese and translated into English, these texts particularly explore the question of how struggles and resistances have been organized in the Latin American context.

The Evolution of Morality

19-11-2006 16:07 | Education | Globalisation | World

Scientists who study human evolution have discovered the evolutionary origins of morality. The concept of morality exists in every culture on Earth, but the morals themselves are different, which causes a lot of conflict in the world. Now that the Democrats own the U.S. Congress, I’m sure that conflict is about to get very interesting…

19-11-2006 14:02 | Globalisation | World

Police attacked a peaceful group of anti-G20 protestors at the Melbourne Museum on Sunday evening causing severe injuries. The protestors, who had gathered on information that G20 delegates were attending an event at the Museum, were reportedly given no prior warning before the assault which involved fists, boots and batons. Footage clearly shows police brutally beating defenseless people lying on the ground.

Ludicrous Assumptions

19-11-2006 03:21 | Analysis | Globalisation | Repression | World

Ludicrous assumptions are many but perhaps the most absurd is the assumption that those who steal the greater percentage of available wealth and continue to implement economic strategies designed to enslave are (somehow) safe and secure. From the Pacific islands to the pitch battles in Mainland China, exploited people of the world are retaliating against injustice.

Payback: 100 Melbourne Police violently attack G20 Festive Gathering

The G20 meeting of Finance Ministers, World Bank, IMF and Reserve Bank Governors is occurring in Melbourne and has met with local protests and street confrontations with police. A festive gathering of G20 protestors on Saturday night was violently broken up by the police. One must asume this is a payback operation for protests earlier in the day breaching police barricades and even damaging a police riot unit vehicle.

An Australian corporate director who FAILED to perform was recently relieved of his position; he nevertheless was able to walk with a $30 million severance package. This case is not uncommon, directors who fail to perform ensure they win regardless of other factors. Public companies are milk cows for these unscrupulous types.

Rupert Murdock clarifies Rulership

15-11-2006 04:24 | Analysis | Globalisation | Social Struggles | World

Not too long ago Rupert Murdock would have trounced anyone in his media group for letting the ‘cat out of the bag’ (stating plain truth). It was therefore with jaw-dropping amazement that a local Australian audience listened to Murdock plainly state that we should not allow a particular administration to affect our attitude to the United States. “Administrations come and go”, he said, inferring REAL POWER, which Murdock represents, continues unaffected by the whims of democratic process!
