- Gates of Delusion: Media Distortions and REAL Climate Scandals
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2010 Published: 2010 Climate-related storms in a teacup have been appearing in the corporate media almost on a daily basis. This nonsense is distracting attention from a mountain of evidence that human-induced climate change is accelerating and poses a deadly threat to civilisation.
- Asia Inhales While the West Bans the Deadly Carcinogen
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2010 Published: 2010 Asbestos, a known carcinogen banned in much of the world, is a common and dangerous building block in much of Asias development and construction boom.

- The Dead End of Climate Justice
How NGO Bureaucrats and Greenwashed Corporations are Turning Nature Into Investment Capital Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2010 Published: 2010 The notion of climate debt, highlighted as the principle avenue of struggle for the climate justice movement, poses some large problems. Contemporary demands for reparations justified by the notion of climate debt open a dangerous door to increased green capitalist investment in the Global South. Everything from energy to agriculture, from cleaning products to electronics, and especially everything within the biosphere, is being incorporated into this regime of climate markets. One can only imagine the immense possibilities for speculation and financialization in these markets as the green bubble continues to grow.
- Coal's Ruptured Landscape
Navigating the Ruins of Appalachia Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2010 Published: 2010 It is more apparent now than ever before that coal mining, especially mountain top removal, is unethical and inhumane. It displays stark irresponsibility in land stewardship as well as depraved practices within a diverse region. Its time to shake off the flawed belief that we are reliant upon coal and other fossil fuels.

- Doom and Gloom
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Jermey Brecher says that the social roots of doom are part of a common pattern that we can observe repeatedly in history. People live their lives and pursue their goals by means of strategies that have been developed over time. But sometimes they discover their established strategies aren't working. No matter how hard they try, their problems remain intractable. The natural result is despair. But the awareness that other people are experiencing the same despair changes the context in which it is experienced. It opens up new possibilities. Perhaps the problems that we despair of solving as individuals can be addressed through some kind of collective action. When people begin to explore that possibility, the result may be a social movement.
- Environmental journalists censored and assaulted
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Journalists worldwide risk their lives to report on environmental degradation. In the fight against climate change, the media is a watchdog for corrupt governments that obstruct efforts to protect the environment. The media also plays a critical role in engaging the public through stories and research. But journalists who cover illegal logging and the polluting of rivers are increasingly censored, imprisoned, assaulted and at times killed.

- Climate change: the eco-socialist solution
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Climate change reminds us, in a phrase attributed to Lao Tzu, that if you dont change direction you may end up where you are heading. The road of capitalism is now lined with horrors and we must find a new direction home. After a long absence, sustainability must be restored to the relationship between society and nature.
- The Climate Denial Industry Is Out To Dupe The Public. And It's Working

Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 The fossil fuel industry has been working for years to create a smokescreen of doubt to obscure the facts of global warming.
- Rampaging Climate Deniers' Losing Battle
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Because of the flimsy comprehension of science and evolution of most writers in the mass media, those who venture to write about evolution feel constrained to present "alternative" views. But "alternative" views are not necessarily credible or true. The cliimate change deniers' arguments are no less articles of faith than those of the creationists. In the case of the former, the faith is not in a god but in the free market and capitalism. Almost without exception, those who are in staunch denial are those connected to, involved in or supportive of the traditional capitalist model of economic growth, and by implication opposed to anything that might constrain this model.
- Whats at stake in Copenhagen
The crucial debates at Copenhagen Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Tere is no chance of achieving binding greenhouse gas reductions within the current framework for an agreement. Instead the problem is being redefined to fit the business-as-usual assumptions of neoliberal economics.
- Why We Left Our Farms to Come to Copenhagen
Speech of Henry Saragih, general coordinator of Via Campesina at the opening session of Klimaforum Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Climate change is already seriously impacting us. It brings floods, droughts and the outbreak of pests that are all causing harvest failures. I must point out that these harvest failures are something that the farmers did not create. Instead, it is the polluters who caused the emissions who destroy the natural cycles. So, we small scale farmers came here to say that we will not pay for their mistakes. And we are asking the emitters to face up to their responsibilities.

- Canada Is Now To Climate What Japan Is To Whaling
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Here I am, watching the astonishing spectacle of a beautiful, cultured nation turning itself into a corrupt petro-state. Canada is slipping down the development ladder, retreating from a complex, diverse economy towards dependence on a single primary resource, which happens to be the dirtiest commodity known to man. The price of this transition is the brutalisation of the country, and a government campaign against multilateralism as savage as any waged by George Bush. Until now I believed that the nation that has done most to sabotage a new climate change agreement was the United States. I was wrong. The real villain is Canada.
- Seven Answers To Climate Contrarian Nonsense
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Within the community of scientists and others concerned about anthropogenic climate change, those deny climate change are commonly referred to as contrarians, naysayers and denialists. Not everyone who questions climate change science fits that description, of course some people are genuinely unaware of the facts or honestly disagree about their interpretation. What distinguishes the true naysayers is an unwavering dedication to denying the need for action on the problem, often with weak and long-disproved arguments about supposed weaknesses in the science behind global warming.
- Bloody Oil
Canadian First Nations internationalize their struggle against the most destructive project on earth Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 The extraction of oil from tar sands is perhaps the most ecologically insane idea on the planet. Four First Nations representatives from Canada travelled to Britain to participate in the London climate camp the countrys biggest annual gathering of climate activists. Organized by the Indigenous Environmental Network and supported by the New Internationalist, the groups aim was to internationalize the campaign for a complete tar sands moratorium.

In the mid-1980s swaths of new laws were passed that targeted the acts of direct action oriented environmental protests.
- Impossibleism
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 Impossibleists want unrestrained sustainable growth in the face of its inevitable impossibility. It is a mystery how they think this way, knowing as they surely do that eventually the bill will come due, and the engine will run out of gas - literally. Think about it - growth that never stops, ever. Even with limitless resources, it is simple intuition that eventually, somewhere, sometime....

- The great success of a carbon trading failure
Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter First Published: 2009 Published: 2009 The right to pollute has never been more affordable. Energy companies and market speculators can buy a tonne of carbon for less than the cost of a cup of coffee. The low cost gives an incentive for companies to pollute more in the short-term and prices renewable energy alternatives out of the market.

Obesity, diabetes and heart disease are the by-products of a system that is characterized by over consumption in one part of the world and starvation in others. Output and the complex international infrastructure that supports are controlled by profit. Steel also documents how production of food is controlled by fewer companies accountable to no one but themselves. Her examples include the following: 90% of milk in the United States comes from one breed of cow; the same proportion of commercial eggs from a single breed of hen; British supermarkets have reduced the 2000 varieties of apples down to two. The food chain becomes vulnerable to disease, contamination or terrorism. As well as a guide to the the history of the food chain from farm to plate to landfill it is also a warning on the waste and destruction of our current food systems.

It will also continue to grow because of sustained growth in highway, rail, and air traffic, which remain major sources of environmental noise.
