Email alert: Stop more deforestation biofuels and peat burning as 'green energy'
04-01-2007 11:23
On 10th January, the European Commission is expected to make a final decision on the European Biomass Plan. There are serious concerns that they will promote ever more biofuels from palm oil, soya and sugar cane linked to rainforest destruction, peat drainage, biodiversity losses and, in some cases, human rights abuses. There is even pressure on them to class and supoort peat as a source of 'renewable biomass'. Please write to the European Commission today to express concerns.Want to get involved in the Camp for Climate Action 2007? Meet up 9th January

01-01-2007 23:19
Green Seniors have always existed. They are the people who, regardless of age, fight for what they believe. They are the people who see the way that our natural environment is changing for the worse and want to do something about it. They are the people who are a pain in the neck of authority, in fact of anyone and anything that operates in a way that degrades the environment for no good reason.LBIA & Vivisection Exports

I was going to write a piece about yesterdays synchronized global orgasm for peace but see little point wasting my time writing original articles for Indymedia only to have the gatekeepers to open publishing remove them ( http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/12/358704.html, http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/12/358696.html).
