New Facebook group for Climate IMC supporters

Climate Indymedia face particular challenges as an entirely online organisation. Unlike other local indys, we don't get to know each other by having physical meetings and socialising. To try to alleviate this problem, lets try a few new things.

Love it or hate it, you have to admit that Facebook is a great social networking tool. To facilitate better communication and solidarity amongst the participants of Climate Indy, I have set up a Facebook group here:

The Standover Group - A parody of big business

Corporate vs. Popular Solutions to the Climate Crisis

Climate Change: Crisis and Opportunity

Presentation by Anne Petermann, Co-Director, Global Justice Ecology Project

15 March 2008, New York City

Global warming is humanity's greatest challenge. As such, we must tackle this
issue on several fronts. We must build opposition to the corporate-controlled
false solutions to climate change that dominates the media, in order to open

Global warming and other energy & carbon -related crises -- as well as associated interests

"If you care about climate change forget about ‘saving the planet’"

George M. on why we shouldn't ask others to "save the planet" -
"One psychological response to climate change is to find language and images that create distance - to suggest that it will affect someone else in the future. So the talk and images are of ‘climate’ not ‘weather’, polar bears not hedgehogs, African children not our own.
‘The Planet’ is about as distant as one can get - I am not being called on to save my family, my community, my country, my world or even my Earth. It is The Planet - a lump of cold rock seen from space. I’ll be honest - I don’t give a damn about ‘The Planet’ - it means nothing to me."
