Resistance, Journal of the Earth Liberation Movement to Hit Store Shelves Today

Resistance Magazine was created as a vehicle to inform, inspire, and energize the earth liberation movement. Humans have pushed the earth to the brink of catastrophe and each day that passes brings us one step closer to a planet that can no longer sustain life.

The question has now become not what we can do, but what we must do; not what we are comfortable with, but what we are fully capable of; not what is convenient, but what is completely necessary to stop the destruction of our home.

Whither Resilience and Transition? Why 'Peak Oil' Has Yet to Outlive its Usefulness

It's been a fascinating few days. Early in the week, Nate Hagens and Sharon Astyk were suggesting the perhaps the term 'peak oil' has outlived its usefulness, given that we have almost certainly peaked, and that the peak oil movement needs to shift its focus. It echoed something I wrote a while ago, likening ASPO and the wider peak oil movement to a Loch Ness Monster Society, dedicated to establishing the existence of this fabled creature. They organise conferences, scientific searches of the loch, write papers and journals, and then one day, an entire, intact Loch Ness Monster washes up on the shore. Then what? They have no reason to exist any longer, their whole raison d'etre vanishes overnight.

Sheffield Climate Camp Meeting

Announcement for the Sheffield Intro meeting to Climate Camp

Vestas day of action - today

We will be leafletting at Sheffield train station (outside main entrance), from 4:30pm. The Vestas campaign have produced a broadsheet leaflet with details of their campaign, and we will also hold a collection to raise more funds for the campaign to continue.

Locations For Targets (Kingsnorth Campaign)

There are 5 companies after the contract for Kingsnorth. However if they get enough hassle for chasing the contract then they won’t bother anymore, it also a great way to show them what they are in for if they do get the contract. We must be relentless in our campaign as we are fighting for all life current and future.

Spoof stickers against rising fares on Leeds Buses.

Those pests have struck again.

After their spoof of the local paper was so well received the people behind the Yorkshire Evening Pest have responded to yet another rise in the fares on First buses by producing stickers which helpfully inform passengers of both the rise in prices and what the company really thinks of them.

There is a book I would like you all to read, and you don't have to pay a single penny for it, if you don't want to; but it could change the way you see the world and live your life, entirely.
