DESCRIPTION:Bike Ride Against the G8 and Climate Change/Int'l Day of Action\n 
 Solidarity with Heiligendamm, Deutschland.\n\nUse pedal power to challenge 
 oil addiction, to show solidarity with\nanti-G8 mass mobilizations in 
 Germany and resist the polluting economic\nand political system of the G8. 
 As the megalomaniac G8 leaders meet in\npolice-state Germany, behind 
 fences, cops and soldiers, intent on\nleading us further towards 
 catastrophic and irreversible climate chaos,\nwe must shout, scream and 
 roar 'no more'. Take action to challenge the\nfossil fuelled madness of the 
 G8 governments and their oil addicted\ncorporate buddies. Actions targeting 
 the root causes of climate change\nare planned in other G8 countries and 
 around the world on this day.\n\nWe know the terrifying statistics: a 
 million species extinct by 2050, 19\nof the 20 hottest years on record 
 since 1980, Greenland and Antarctica\nmelting, droughts, floods, famines 
 ... the G8 have met for over 30 years\nto further a global system that is 
 destroying our planet and our future\nwhile they line their pockets, and at 
 the same time stage fake public\nrelations promises to confuse us. This 
 global system is at the root of\nour ecological and social problems; lack 
 of heath care, housing and\neducation, war, more prisons, the rich getting 
 richer, low wages and\nlousy jobs, pollution, and attacks on immigrant, 
 worker and civil\nrights. Meanwhile, island countries disappear and 
 hundreds of thousands\ndie as a result of the freak weather conditions 
 caused by their\nirrational and uncontrollable obsession with never ending 
 economic\ngrowth.\n\nJune 8 International Day of Action Against Climate 
 Change and the G8 has\nbeen called by the International Rising Tide 
 Network.\nhttp://risingtide.org.uk/G8\n\nInitiated by Bay Rising; bayrising 
 (at) gmail.com\n\nA Better World is Possible! A Better US is 
 Necessary!\nFlood the Streets before the Sea Does! \n
