An interviewer asked me: Why are you here today?

I have goals for the future, revolutionary ideas to help bring peace to my family’s home land. Hopes to aid in liberating Palestine and changing US immigration laws. I have these goals, I have my plan, and now I need my future. Adults silence us by calling young activists political puppets and I ask: How are we puppets of those who are against us? We are not given the chance to revolutionize the world, but we can take it. That’s what Greta, I, and everyone here today plan on doing.

“What do you about the University of Iowa claiming it’s not possible to eliminate coal use until 2025?”

Fuck that.

“Can you say it in a way I’m able to report it?”

There’s not a more accurate way to display my feelings.

Being interviewed as well as standing amongst thousands of people was truly overwhelming. Having aspergers and immense sensory overload made it hard to think coherently. Despite that it was an enlightening experience that I will cherish forever.

Spending most of my life scuba diving as well as living at sea with sharks has allowed me to see our magnificent sharks, true nature! It is hard for me to know that most of the planet still believes they are mindless maneating monstors! However this is definitely changing, as more and more people experience these incredible animals for themselves! The constant news of negative things our species are doing to the planet and all wildlife does eat away at me, but there is so much we all enjoyà The amazing encounters with all creatures is the very best therapy and inspiration to keep pushing for change to protect the animals I love! The journey has enabled me to meet incredible people that are life long friends that I'm very grateful for! Surrounding myself with brillant individuals where I work, what I call my chosen family also increases the quality of my life substantially! The list is endless and very helpful and important during these very difficult times as our planet continues to head in an unsustainable direction! Together our minute changes make a huge difference to the entire planet! What are you doing to help our planet and its beautiful wildlife? Are you part of the solution? This plastic free July lets all do everything we can for our only home...planet earth! @jim_abernethy @wildlifevoiceinc @sealegacy #TurningTheTide #plasticfreejuly #Bethechangetheworldneeds #stopneedlessslaughter #6thextinction #inspirational #alternativepower #saveplanetearth #savepollinators #BanGlyphosate #bethevoice #loveearth #endcoal #saveplanetearth (at Tiger Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzdDHxJp2k6/?igshid=1ganwy01kfb5i

Spaventoso il verdetto: 9 mesi di detenzione senza possibilità di domiciliari. L'accusa è di tentate lesioni mortali ai danni dei 5 poliziotti DOPO che questi le avevano legato mani e piedi per trascinarla via dalla foresta. Le versioni fornite dalle forze dell'ordine sono state confuse e contraddittorie, tuttavia il giudice ha ritenuto questa una sorta di pena esemplare, da infliggere a Eule di monito per tutti gli altri, come ha dichiarato dopo l'emissione della sentenza. Il verdetto è arrivato peraltro dopo 5 mesi di custodia cautelare che Eule ha trascorso in prigione. . . 🔴REPRESSION IN THE HAMBACH FOREST🔴 Few days ago Eule, a teenager activist who defended the Hambach Forest from the planned eviction of the RWE, was sentenced to 9 months of prison.

Police witnesses were confused and contradictory, but the judge decided to impose such a punishment as exemplary for all the others activists.

Pavel Tykač was one of the faces of privatization scams in Czech Republic in the 90s. Today, he is the face of fossil business and represents all the super-rich who exchange health of people and the planet for profit. He made money in the infamous coupon privatization scheme, where his financial group lured people into investing in their funds only to steal their assets - 1.23 billion CZK - and siphon them out in tax havens. His coal business creates even more profit - and more mess. Tykač owns Sev.en Energy AG based in Luxembourg and owned through a company in Cyprus. The group owns coal mines and plants in Czech Rep. and also in the US. This is how his business works: He buys old coal plants, lobbies for emission exemptions saying that the modernization is costly, he pays tiny fees to the state for the coal and drains the profits through tax havens - 22 billion CZK in 2009-2016. Experts are calling for the greenhouse gasses emissions to be cut in half within 10 years. The end of fossil fuels is considered to be an emergency brake that could slow down climate crisis. But Tykač is not reaching for the brake - he is trying to get more exemptions that allow him to pollute the air with carbon dioxide and mercury for years to come. There is this naive narrative that when the rich are trying to get richer, they are elevating everyone by creating jobs and innovations on the way. Tykač is a proof that it is just nonsense. He resists innovation and instead of paying taxes to help create greener jobs, he pays himself dividends. People working in the fossil industry are worried their jobs will dissappear and as Tykač avoids all fees, the money doesn't flow back to the communities where it could help reform the industry and maintain job security. His wife Ivana has an annoying business of her own - she owns around 300 AirBnB flats in Prague. Her business is probably not thriving at the moment. But it will take more than a virus scaring tourists to bring an end to her husband's empire. Follow @limityjsmemy or your local climate justice movement, vote only for those taking climate crisis seriously, chain yourself to some mining machinery - everything counts. End coal now!

Pavel Tykač býval jednou z tváří privatizace a s ní spojených finančních podvodů. Dnes je tváří špinavého uhelného byznysu a patronem superboháčů, kteří ničí zdraví a planetu a vydělávají na tom. Jeho jmění se značně rozrostlo díky akci, kterou jeho finanční skupina v 90. letech nazvala "Drobní akcionáři, plačte" a která lákala lidi, aby vložili peníze do akciových fondů, ze kterých vyvedla 1,23 miliardy na účty v daňových rájích. Jeho uhelný byznys ale vydělává víc - a také víc škodí. Tykač je majitelem Sev.en Energy AG. Ta sídlí v Lichtenštejnsku a je vlastněná přes kyperskou firmu, kromě Česka jí patří např. uhelné doly v USA. Tykačovo podnikání by se dalo shrnout asi takhle: Kupuje zastaralé uhelné elektrárny a doly, žádá výjimky z emisních limitů s tím, že modernizace je nákladná, státu odvádí za vytěžování uhlí směšné poplatky a skrze daňové ráje si vyplácí dividendy - v letech 2009-2016 šlo o celkem 22 miliard. Odborníci volají po nutnosti snížit emise skleníkových plynů do 10 let alespoň o polovinu. Konec uhelného byznysu je považovaný za záchrannou brzdu, díky které bychom mohli klimatickou krizi postupně zastavovat. Tykač však nebrzí - výjimky, které mu dovolují vypouštět do ovzduší nejen nadlimitní množství oxidu uhličitého, ale také násobné množství rtuti, se snaží získat na další dlouhé roky. Tykač je dokonalým příkladem toho, jak nesmyslné jsou naivní řeči o tom, že když se někdo žene za ziskem, pomáhá tím celé společnosti, protože vytváří pracovní místa a inovace. Jeho podniky se inovacím brání a místo placení daní si vyplácí dividendy. Ti, které uhelný průmysl živí, se bojí o práci - protože kvůli sobcům jako je Tykač neputují odvody ze špinavého byznysu na rozvoj udržitelné energetiky a zelenější pracovní místa nevznikají. Tykačova žena Ivana se prozměnu rozhodla otravovat život lidem v Praze, vlastní na 300 bytů, které pronajímá přes AirBnB. Můžeme se domnívat, že v pandemii její byznys příliš nekvete. Aby přestal vzkvétat i ten Tykačův, bude ale zapotřebí víc než jen strach turistů z viru. Sledujte @limityjsmemy, volte na všech úrovních jen ty, kdo berou klimatickou krizi vážně, přivažte se k rypadlu - všechno se počítá. Zatykače na Tykače!

#Repost @resistenzeambientali_padova with @get_repost ・・・ #Repost @global_project • • • • • CRONACHE DELLE ILLUSIONI DI UN CAPITALISMO GREEN. Quali sono i costi ecologici e sociali della transizione ecologica su larga scala? Di cosa sono fatti gli impianti eolici? E quelli solari? Abbiamo tradotto un articolo di Alexander Dunlap sulla delusione del "green capitalism". . «Quando i liberali, i progressisti, “la sinistra” e finanche gli attivisti per la giustizia ambientale applaudono alla transizione su larga scala verso le rinnovabili, questi ignorano completamente tutti i rischi che sarebbero, altrimenti, inaccettabili ai loro occhi. Delocalizzare gli impianti di combustibili fossili nel sud globale, dove le normative in materia di tutela dell’ambiente e i diritti civili sono molto più blandi, rende possibile il ricorso a forme estremamente pesanti di violenza e repressione da parte sia dello Stato che di enti privati nei confronti di chiunque osi protestare. In più, i materiali necessari per le rinnovabili possono dipendere unicamente dall’aumento dell’estrattivismo nel sud del mondo, con tutte le conseguenze negative che ciò implica per le persone che lì vivono. Se non facciamo i conti con tutto questo, allora la soluzione che si prospetta oggi – come il cambiamento delle vecchie forme e regimi di energia – diventerà probabilmente la causa dei nuovi di rapporti di potere del domani. Riconoscere le rinnovabili come “carbon fossili+” è un primo passo per combattere la favoletta dell’energia pulita. Decostruendo i miti intorno alle rinnovabili, possiamo finalmente gettare le basi per migliori considerazioni ambientaliste e per l’attuazione di alternative ecologiche più radicali che stravolgano alle radici la società consumistica e le sue soluzioni commerciali». .

Még mindig az exkavátoron bandázunk

már olyan 5-6 órája.

És maradunk.

Kempingezésnek kicsit extrém, az idő szar, a szél is fújdogál itt a magasban, ez a förtelmes szörnyeteg meg hideg és kényelmetlen. De kaja van, hálózsák van, a társaság pedig a legjobb ;)

Ez a rohadék 24 órában dolgozna, ha hagynánk, úgyhogy minél tovább maradunk, annál nagyobb a profitkiesés 😜

Drukkoljatok, hogy ne szedjenek le a zsaruk, és itt tudjuk tölteni az éjszakát!

Akinél van kedv, tehet képeket reblogba az utókornak

Air Terjun Batang Kapas Tertinggi di Riau Terancam Punah Desa Lubuk Bigau @arikaharmon @gadielok @ulungrahmadhan @djemari_ijal @riaudaily @bangfiko #RiauForest Regrann from @walhiriau - Terletak di Kecamatan Kampar Kiri Hulu, Kabupaten Kampar Provinsi Riau dengan luas ± 60.000 ha dan 1000 KK, Kenegarian Pangkalan Kapas meliputi Desa Pangkalan Kapas, Desa Lubuk Bigau, Desa Tanjung Permai dan Desa Kebun Tinggi; Padi ladang menjadi salah satu sumber nafkah hidup rakyat Kenegarian Pangkalan Kapas selain karet, gambir dan hasil pertanian lainnya; Keindahan alam dan rumah bagi harimau sumatera ini terancam keberlangsungannya disebabkan keberadaan PT Buana Tambang Jaya yang merupakan perusahaan pertambangan batu bara. Perusahaan Industri ekstraktif tersebut diketahui mengantongi izin operasi produksi pada tahun 2017 lalu dengan nomor SK. 7/1/IUP/PMA/2017; Berdasarkan Surat Izin Prinsip Penanaman Modal yang dikeluarkan oleh Badan Koordinasi Penanaman Modal pada tanggal 01 Juli 2011 dengan Nomor 419/1/P/PMA/2011 diketahui bahwa komposisi kepemilikan saham perusahaan ini 80% nya dimiliki oleh saham asing dan 20% sisanya oleh Indonesia. Pemilik saham asing tersebut berkebangsaan Malaysia yakni Lim Mee Lein, Lim Chee Kait dan Lim Chee Yei, sedangkan dari Indonesia dimiliki oleh Hutomo Wijaya Ongowarsito dan Elka Tanudjaya; Menolak keberadaan PT Buana Tambang Jaya, dapat dimaknai sebagai perlindungan terhadap lingkungan hidup yang merupakan hajat hidup rakyat Kenegarian Pangkalan Kapas dan tidak membiarkan Harimau Sumatera hanya ada pada gambar dibuku-buku sekolah dasar; “Perbaikan akses jalan bagi rakyat di Kenegarian Pangkalan Kapas adalah kewajiban negara.
