Peak Oil : High tide for an oil addicted world

24-11-2006 15:59

2006 has seen awareness of Climate Change reach new levels and those who have said for so long that something should be done to reduce CO2 emissions are seeing action slowly – perhaps too slowly – beginning to happen.

The incredible levels of CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere are a result of the massive explosion of the human population in the 20th century and the resulting use of resources – especially the burning of fossil fuels –due to our rising living standards and expectations.

Pictures from the Shell Blockade Birmingham

22-11-2006 09:15

On Monday 20th November 2006, over 20 well organised environmental and human rights activists risked arrest to shut down a Shell petrol station in central Birmingham for three hours during the morning rush hour. The protesters used direct action to raise awareness about Shell's attempts to build an experimental pipeline and refinery, backed by the Irish state, that will put corporate greed and profit before the interests of local people and the environment in County Mayo, Ireland. In-spite of Shell's facade of corporate responsibility and recent green-washing, Shell and other corporations are also responsible for the rape and plunder of natural resources and the oppression of the indigenous people of the Niger Delta in Africa.
