Socio-environmental movements call for closure of World Bank climate fund

19-04-2004 09:36

Today, over fifty environmental and social justice NGOs and other groups sent a letter of protest to the World Bank calling for the closure of its new emissions trading fund, The Prototype Carbon Fund. In the year of the World Bank’s 60th anniversary and in the run-up to intense protests in Washington D.C. at their annual meeting this month, the groups state that the Bank’s new fund is destructive greenwash and has in fact created extra problems for communities and the environment.

Security hurts
I have been documenting with photographs the marches and demonstrations in San Francisco since October of 2002. These are posted on my website: www.telepoetic.com, including 148 photos from the protest on March 20. The emphasis is on individuals and their signs.

Cambridge Mayday...and more!

18-04-2004 20:02

Grafton Centre - Mayday fun for all the family!
An excellent meeting took place in Cambridge yesterday to discuss the possibilities of setting some kind of new collective in the city. It was surprisingly well attended given the short notice and less than perfect advertising and it seems that quite a few of us have been wanting something like this to emerge for a while.

BRITISH MONARCHY AND THE POLITICS OF SUBMISSION

16-04-2004 23:34

Police line waiting for the queen.
The other day, the Queen of England visited Toulouse, in south western France. First she went to church, then she had lunch with the mayor, then she christened an airliner for Virgin Atlantic Airways at the Airbus Works, and then she went home. A great big crowd of people turned out to see her. The fascination that people have for Her Royal Highness is a source of much perplexity. After all, royalty is an aberration that has survived in modern times, like the appendix at the bottom end of the human intestine. So while we wait for it to explode, here is a photographic account of her visit...
