Things kick off for EASA today, 12 noon the open public discussion: Dublin's Metamorphosis, with guest speakers, followed by our Green and Blue walk. Hopefully we will have an interesting and critical exchange of ideas and from that the creation of better communities, processes of change, city, world... Dublin’s Metamorphosis http://www.indymedia.ie/article/88636 A chaired presentation and discussion on the impact of social cultural and economic change on the built environment of Ireland in the last 15/20 years. The panel will be composed of leading figures from the fields of architecture, urbanism, politics and the arts. Green and Blue walk: eco threads for Dublin city http://www.indymedia.ie/article/88634 The Botanic Spine is an architectural project for Dublin city in Ireland. The proposal is for an 18-kilometre ecological corridor, or greenway, for Dublin city, which is to be called the "botanic spine". The spine is a circular loop through the city that links up the river Liffey, the royal and grand canals, the botanic gardens and Europe's largest city park, the phoenix park. The spine is a "pearl necklace" type of park with the narrow line of the canal and the green space along its edges threading through a series of pocket parks, which house public buildings of interest. The Liffey will be spanned by a public walkway, alongside the rail bridge, through the soon to be developed lands around Heuston station and by an adjustable bridge spanning the river on the east side. Climate camp 2008 On a different note, last Thursday I left the Climate camp 2008 in Kent, which was an excellent and extremely well organised and inspiring few days. The creation of temp communities that demonstrate alternatives to the present un-sustainable system that, if allowed to continue, will lead to end of life for human species. All people I talked with were truly blown away, myself included, at how such a healthy community was created so quickly, that was so horizontally well organised, how everyone took responsibility, mucked in and learned how to live in such an atmosphere quickly. And finally how people took direct action yesterday to confront Kingsnorth, in an attempt to shut it down, to stop a new wave of coal burning power stations. Coal is the dirtiest fossil fuel to burn and 7 new stations will hugely increase UK CO2 emmissions. Capping present emmissions is not enough, we have to radically reduce the worlds carbon emmissions to not allow a 2 degree increase in global temperature, if we dont.....Well, it could be good night humans.. The climate camp idea is growing, as Monbiot stated last year after his time living on camp, it is the begining of a movement... I expect in time there will be a situation where its not those that go, live and take action are seen as the minority, but the majority, and the question will become why are people not at climate camps, and from that taking the principles to their local communities, towns, cities... See accompanying youtube vid for info on yesterdays direct action as well as calm reasons for the breaking of law, if and when appropriate... Also listen to the radio programme we made as part of camp radio about the creation of sustainable communities and more: TRANSITIONING: how to construct sustainable communities and what they will look like Full climate camp radio programmes: http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/radio full coverage of camp: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/topics/climate/ Perhaps next year we might see a climate camp ireland? http://www.indymedia.ie/article/88558&comment_limit=0&condense_comments=false#comment233980 Incidentnly, Irelands second Green gathering happened the same weekend... what are those "eco" and "green" peoples views about the necessity to quickly confront root causes of global warming and confront it with massive social movements, connected with the wider community being affected today by climate chaos: the poor in the global south. http://www.irishgreengathering.com/ ]]> Sun, 10 Aug 2008 04:40:30 -0400 Embedded audio: http://stream.plentyfact.net/climatecamp-podcasts/wednesday_broadcast02.mp3 14976-10944972 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/embedded-audio-http-stream-plentyfact-net-climatecamp-podcasts-wednesday_broadcast02-mp3/10944972/

Presently people are out for the day of action, goodluck to all. Previous police handling was very over the top: witnessed headbuts from cops, shields and battons to heads and one poor bloke getting full side batton blow to knee, didnt see him after, rumours were that his knee cap had been seriuosly injured. The level of spirit and community at the camp was incredible, last year George Monbiot felt how this is definately the birth of a movement, or a new type of movement. It is that, but so much more...its getting bigger, it has to, how the world works must radically change or else its good night human species. Last year was climate camp uk number 2. This year there are climate camps in Australia, New Zealand, Germany, US, Sweden, Canada. Next year more climate camps are planned globally, including Copenhagen, in lead up to COP09, the UN post Kyoto gathering. This weekend is the 2nd Irish green gathering, so things green are growing in ireland, but can they, or should they become more confrontational. Perhaps Ireland might create its own climate camp, a week of critical talks, the creation of a meeting place to develop further the irish eco community, finishing in day of direct action, perhaps rossport? Or where?

The 'sure they are as bad as each other' is an old, old bit of rhetoric to justify all sorts of shit. It doesn't work here though as at the start of these pickets the WRC crowd were dumb enough to allow me to record them justifying lying to women - http://www.indymedia.ie/attachments/mar2007/rogue24march.mp3 - recorded at one of the first pickets, March 2007, original story at http://www.indymedia.ie/article/81655 I've been active on pro-choice stuff for many years and been at many of the WRC pickets but I've yet to find someone who is 'pro-abortion,' whatever that might mean. That's a misleading label that is exclusively used by the anti-choice movement. Pro-choice simply means that the decision to continue a pregnancy or not is one for the women alone, one could even be pro-choice and personally convinced that abortion is always the wrong choice. Providing you don't think your views should be imposed on the women concerned it doesn't matter what those views are. ]]> Tue, 29 Jul 2008 10:53:06 -0400 Nice theory Mel 18061-10700852 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/-53-iphone-in-ireland/10700852/
