A Better World is Possible! A Better US is Necessary! Flood the Streets before the Sea Does!
Use pedal power to challenge oil addiction, to show solidarity with anti-G8 mass mobilizations in Germany and resist the polluting economic and political system of the G8. As the megalomaniac G8 leaders meet in police-state Germany, behind fences, cops and soldiers, intent on leading us further towards catastrophic and irreversible climate chaos, we must shout, scream and roar 'no more'. Take action to challenge the fossil fuelled madness of the G8 governments and their oil addicted corporate buddies. Actions targeting the root causes of climate change are planned in other G8 countries and around the world on this day.
We know the terrifying statistics: a million species extinct by 2050, 19 of the 20 hottest years on record since 1980, Greenland and Antarctica melting, droughts, floods, famines ... the G8 have met for over 30 years to further a global system that is destroying our planet and our future while they line their pockets, and at the same time stage fake public relations promises to confuse us. This global system is at the root of our ecological and social problems; lack of heath care, housing and education, war, more prisons, the rich getting richer, low wages and lousy jobs, pollution, and attacks on immigrant, worker and civil rights. Meanwhile, island countries disappear and hundreds of thousands die as a result of the freak weather conditions caused by their irrational and uncontrollable obsession with never ending economic growth.
June 8 International Day of Action Against Climate Change and the G8 has been called by the International Rising Tide Network.
