The Amsterdam Climate Games is back … and this year it’s bigger, bolder, stronger.
Again you can take part in this mega action game with your own team. We promise an even bigger spectacle and better awards. The stakes are high with Amsterdam intending to expand its port in support of a growing fossil fuel industry.The city is siding with the losing team and playing more for profit and economic value than our climate and health! It’s time to interfere with the gameplay of politicians and companies and learn to take action and play the game ourselves! Your team’s goal is to secure a place in Climate Games history by winning one of our highly esteemed awards, while our goal together is to free Amsterdam from polluting industries.

West mill solar energy trust http://www.weset.org
Westmill wind and solar farm co-ops started as a small group of local people who wanted to make a difference. The co-ops now have almost 4,000 members who together turned those dreams into energy projects that now generate over 15GW/year of renewable energy and are 100% community owned.
Westmill Sustainable Energy Trust (WeSET) is the charity set up by members of the co-ops to take forward that desire to make a difference. We carry out a wide range of activities, the core being educational work, supporting local energy conservation and renewable energy initiatives and arts projects. We encourage and facilitate visits to the site and every other year organise a larger event. We hope that you may feel inspired to join us or to do something in your community that help to work towards a low carbon future.

Fracking Decisions 23 – 26th June
May 13th, 2015 |
Lancashire County Council has announced new dates in June for its Development Control Committee to make decisions on Cuadrilla Resources plans to continue fracking in the Fylde.
The applications relating to the Preston New Road site are scheduled to be decided at meetings to take place on Tuesday 23 June and Wednesday 24 June. The applications relating to the Roseacre Wood site are scheduled to be decided at meetings to take place on Thursday 25 June and Friday 26 June.
Community groups from across Lancashire and the UK now have a clear focus for action on the decision days and in the weeks in the lead up. Watch this space.

http://www.frackfreedee.co.uk anti fracking group north uk
Frack Free Dee is a collective of concerned residents groups, located loosely around the River Dee catchment in Cheshire, Wirral, North East Wales and North Shropshire. Our aim is to peacefully campaign against all forms of extreme energy with particular focus on Coal Bed Methane (CBM), Shaleand Underground Coal Gasification (UCG)all of which are commonly referred to as FRACKING. While there are a lot of differing technical details these processes all involve drilling large numbers of multi-directional wells at regular intervals ultimately covering the landscape. The scale of these new, more intense methods is like nothing we have seen before and to add some perspective, up until now the largest onshore gas field in the UK, Saltfleetby in Lincolnshire, had only 8 wells. To produce the same amount of gas extracted via Shale/CBM it would require hundreds of wells to be drilled.

Runnymede Eco Village has been summoned to court on Mon June 15th the exact 800th Anniversary of the Magna Carta #olsx #onn #occupydemocracy #radicalassembly
Runnymede Eco Village has been summoned to court on Mon June 15th the exact 800th Anniversary of the Magna Carta being sealed at Runnymede meadow.
www.runnymede.community
Facebook FED Book https://www.facebook.com/Diggers2012?fref=ts
The original aim of the campaign was to raise awareness of the need for disused land to grow food and create low impact off grid dwellings.
Who would have guessed we would have been there 3 years later around the time of the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta.
Now blossomed from a tent camp,to an eco village with over 20 different structures,homes made from recycled materials.
All carried on to the site and re used to make homes and sustainable dwellings in a forest community.
The area was heavily fly tipped when we arrived ,and tons of rubbish has been removed.
This is a community of people of all ages from many different walks of life.
It has also been a place for the displaced people of london affected by the recent change in the law to criminalise residential building squatting. (LASPO Act)
( A law fast proving unworkable by mass residential squatting housing protest actions, by the rapidly growing housing movement, in protest at the falsely inflated housing crisis,when there are 1.5 million empty buildings in the UK)
NB It is still legal to squat non residential properties.
Squatting or sheltering in empty buildings has been a right in Britain for time.
It used to be known as crofting.
Move in and fix up and old dilapidated place.
The same LASPO act law removed our rights to fair trial by removing Legal AID for most cases.
So much for equality or equal footing before the law.
We used to gather every saturday in the first months at the Magna Carta memorial to have circular discussions about land rights, loss of civil liberties ,illegal wars, the criminalisation of squatting and the removal of our rights to protest amongst many subjects of concern around the circle.
The loss of the right to a fair trial "Habeous Corpus" has been seriously affected by our governments support for the so called War on Terror, "Extraordinary Rendition" and the secret prison complex.
Amongst many other removals of Civil Liberties by the War of Terror over the last 10-12 years.
There is a much longer story to be told but late n tired many missions.......
Check out the Festival for Democracy June 12-16th 2015 around the 800th Anniversary of the Magna Carta.
Many talks and workshops organised by the New Putney Debates (http://thenewputneydebates.com ) and http://occupydemocracy.org.uk and the eco villagers.

A history professor from Royal Holloway told us this was supposed to say Freedom through the Law , but the monument had been created by American Lawyers group and it had been carved as Freedom UNDER the law.
What was the difference a great debate to be had,the Professor said in 2012 that in three years time in 2015 there said be a big celebration, of the 800th Anniversary.
Well here we are, a large constitutional debate on civil rights and liberties,with our government wanting to abolish human rights?????
Its up to all of us to discuss a fairer and more sustainable world for all future generations.
The Magna Carta has once again inspired a large debate on rights and freedoms that will be debated globally in the Worlds press.
Hopefully leading to a world where human rights are more respected and protected,for all future generations.
