CNN wasn’t alone.Forbes,BBC Science Focus Magazine, and a host of other media outlets have previously hailed the world-rescuing potential of what CNN described as “an emissions-free megaship that will pit together climate scientists and the wealthy in a daring quest to save the planet.”
“Pit together” sounds like an apt description of a would-be merger between luxury tourism and climate action. You can put those two things together in a sentence, but in the real world they mix about as easily as oil and water.
And there’s another big problem with the plan for this overhyped 300-meter-long vessel and its global research:Earth 300

Twenty necessary points on current conflicts and perspectives
One:
All governments are bad. Right, left, far right… all of them. They do not act in our interest, the people from below, as the Zapatistas would say. Covid-19 has expressed, like through a burning glass, the fundamental antagonism between those who need to recreate the world in such a way that there can be a world at all, and those who, in different forms, hold on to the existing world, the world of doom, participate in its consistency.
Two:
The left are not allies in the process which is necessary to organize the revolt, with some honorable exceptions. They have left us alone and abandoned in the Corona era. They have not opposed the narratives of the inevitability of the state of emergency, and many have called for even harder cuts of our collective, fundamental rights. The white, rich left of the West has spoken of “solidarity,” but in reality has performed a de facto shoulder-to-shoulder with power, calling to cease, to suspend all fundamental class struggles, all maneuvers of social warfare from below.
Colombian -Front Line-
Called to trust power and its instructions, it has continued to spread its propaganda, completely failing to make its own fundamental studies of the situation. Again, with a few honorable exceptions, such as the investigations and reflections of some Italian leftists at the beginning of the Corona pandemic in northern Italy. (1)
I’ve often written about my inability to convince people why we need to reject the systems of capitalism and endless economic growth. Emblematic of that is the nearly fifty years I’ve lived without a car, hoping others might give up theirs, too.
I’ve prayed and written so much about protecting Mother Earth for years, with little or no success. Either I was going about this wrong, or no one was listening, or both.
For the past year I’ve been blessed to become part of a local Mutual Aid community. And learning much about the concepts of LANDBACK.
I’ve been putting what I’ve been learning on my website, LANDBack Friends, because my native friends tell me teaching white people about those concepts is one of the best ways for white allies to help them. https://landbackfriends.com/
Millions of people have died from the experimental covid injections and hundreds of millions suffer serious side effects, which often permanently disable the victims. This horrific reality is hidden by the authorities, who deploy numerous strategies to make sure this devastating number of adverse events doesn’t leak out to the public.
REPORT MADE BY DAVID JOHN SORENSEN AND DR. VLADIMIR ZELENKO, MD. shared via awakecanada.org
This in depth report however shows all the evidence, including many scientific studies, hundreds of thousands of stories from victims, photographic evidence, statistical data, and so much more.
Alert and call for support before the trial on October 13 2021!
SUPPORT FOR GIORGOS KALAITZIDIS AND NIKOS MATARAGKAS FROM THE ANARCHIST COLLECTIVE – ROUVIKONAS.
A Kafkaesque trial awaits Giorgos and Nikos on October 13th, based on false accusations. This attempted criminalisation of the social movement might result in life imprisonment for these two political activists. Their exemplary group has obviously become too disturbing for the state. A new international mobilisation is necessary.
The facts : On 7 June, 2016, a drug dealer is executed in Athens, in the district of Exarcheia. This execution is claimed by a self-defense collective named “Militia of the People Armed”, which declared that the drug dealer had behaved with threats and violence in Exarcheia, not just towards anarchist members of the social movements, but also towards other inhabitants of the district.#
Three years passed. No member of Rouvikonas is targeted…
International Volunteers for Peace, Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom and Independent and Peaceful Australia Network are to be congratulated and thanked for organising the Raising Peace Conference held at the end of September. My speech on Australia’s support for authoritarian governments is below. Here is a link to some of the other conference proceedings.
I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land from where I join this event – the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. I pay tribute to all First Nations people and acknowledge their history, their culture and their ongoing struggles for justice of which tragically there are many.
First off I would like to pay tribute to our forebears, who built the global peace movement during the Cold War years. The attacks they endured are hard to credit today. A couple of examples – a Brooklyn judge in the US sentenced five people to…
