Wie het nieuws een beetje volgt hoort over Ende Gelände en Break Free 2016, spannende acties met flink wat burgerlijke ongehoorzaamheid om los te komen van fossil fuels. Of zoals 350.org het wervend beschrijft:

“The largest global moment of civil disobedience in the history of the environmental movement has started today in the UK. We’ve just heard that operations at the Ffos-y-fran opencast coal mine in Wales have been blocked for the day by hundreds of people.  This is the beginning of a wave of peaceful direct actions across six continents, lasting for 12 days, targeting the world’s most dangerous fossil fuel projects.”

The new film Disobedience about the global movement to break free from fossil fuels is now available for free download and streaming at watchdisobedience.com!

The film is a powerful journey, featuring Break Free organizers in Canada, Germany, Turkey and the Philippines as they prepare to mobilize for major actions this May. It shows that the global movement to keep fossil fuels in the ground is growing in size and courage.

Disobedience features author and activist Naomi Klein, 350.org co-founder Bill McKibben, as well as board member Lidy Nacpil and dozens of inspiring voices from front-line fights around the world.

Maar voor wie dit toch een beetje te heftig is, op 28 mei kun je in Amsterdam demonstreren tegen TTIP, zie het artikel verderop in deze nieuwsbrief.
