Rising Tide releases guide to bogus climate change solutions
22-03-2009 20:29
Only a few years ago, some companies were saying climate change wasn’t a problem. Now, as its impacts become apparent, many of the same corporations are suddenly scrambling to claim leadership on the issue. Desperate to avoid regulation that may hit their profits, they present a dizzying array of “false solutions,” quick fixes that perpetuate inequalities in our society while they can cash in on the crisis. Upon closer examination, many of these technologies and policies are merely dangerous detours on the road to a just, livable planet, distracting us from the root causes of the crisis.Rising Tide North America is pleased to announce the release of the first short yet comprehensive survey of these bogus climate change solutions.

English Nationalists and Fascists to march in Leicester
19-03-2009 23:13
While the organisers are insistent that the "demo is not connected to any political party," it is prominently promoted on the websites of both the England First Party, a BNP-splinter group, and the openly-fascist National Front.
