CLIMATE CHANGE TERMINATED, are video clips illustrating the simple reality that ending global warming and climate change is cheap, easy and utterly practical. Therefore, logically, fossil fuel propaganda is predicated to instilling doubt, confusion and scepticism. |

In this episode of Greenwash of the Week Darth Vader takes over the studio to endorse the "American Power Act" which was recently announced by Senator John Kerry and his accomplice Darth Lieberman. Lord Vader joins a long and dirty list of supporters of the climate bill which includes coal companies like Duke Power, Shell Oil, a host of nuclear power corporations as well as the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF). If passed the bill would funnel billions of dollars to oil companies for expanded offshore drilling, so-called "clean coal technology" and new nuclear power plants. It would also set up a cap and trade carbon market. Greenwash of the Week is sponsored by the Change Chevron campaign changechevron.org - because Energy Shouldn't Cost Lives. |

Shell promised that gas flaring would end in Nigeria in 2008, but went back on its word. Flaring causes cancer, leukemia, and other diseases, as well as destroying the local habitat and contributing to climate change. Shell want to install a gas refinery and production pipeline onshore in Mayo in Ireland, but despite support from the government, the people are resisting. Some Irish activists showed solidarity with the people of the Niger Delta at the Shell headquarters building in Dublin on Ogoni Day, January 4th, 2008.

Climate change demonstrators chained themselves to the doors of the Royal Bank of Scotland in the City of London yesterday. Other activists stormed the trading floor of the bank in Bishopsgate, gluing themselves together and disrupting business for more than two hours. The group was protesting against carbon trading and the banks investment in fossil fuels. Several more protesters, affiliated with the Climate Camp, chained themselves to the banks front doors in an attempt to blockade the building. The intrusion caused significant disruption, with RBS staff locked into the building for the morning. Client meetings were cancelled and many bankers stopped trading to watch the protest. A section of the trading floor was cleared around the intruders.The demonstrations, just after 8am, formed part of protests around the City in which BP and Shell were also affected. Protesters removed the S from Shells headquarters, leaving it reading hell.The seven activists who entered the RBS building used superglue to attach themselves togetherbefore one of them was glued to a plasma television. They were eventually removed by police who used solvents to remove the glue. |

www.ActNowForClimateJustice.org This feisty, unpermitted march, involving the dumping of melted glacier water on the floors and steps of the offices of "climate criminals" like the US Chamber of Commerce, Bank of America, and Shell, ConocoPhillips, etc, was totally in the spirit of the WTO shutdown in Seattle ten years ago. These "climate criminals" should keep out of the Copenhagen climate summit - our climate is not their business. We need real solutions to the climate crisis more than we need a booming economy. |

Complete video at: fora.tv Addressing the upcoming Climate Conference in Copenhagen, Royal Dutch Shell CEO Jeroen van der Veer emphasizes the importance of the big country club, while former Vice President Al Gore stresses the significance of "binding commitments" from the developing world. "It has to be a planetary solution, to a planetary crisis," says Gore. ------ With world leaders preparing to meet at the United Nations Climate Change Conference Copenhagen in December 2009 to create a global framework for tackling global warming and climate change, Thomas L. Friedman, Columnist, Foreign Affairs, The New York Times, USA, asked panelists what has to happen between now and the end of the year to ensure success. Albert Arnold "Al" Gore, Jr. was the forty-fifth Vice President of the United States, serving from 1993 to 2001 under President Bill Clinton. Before that, Vice President Gore served in the US House of Representatives (1977-85) and the US Senate (1985-93), representing Tennessee. A prominent environmental activist, he shares the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change." Gore was the Democratic nominee for president in the 2000 election in which he won the popular vote by a plurality. A legal controversy over the Florida election recount, ultimately <b>...</b> |

Shell's high-profile annual recruitment event at Oxford's Randolph Hotel was disrupted last night when members of the audience invaded the stage and took over the event. Around 20 campaigners from Thames Valley Climate Action [1] targeted the 6.30pm event in protest at the company's major involvement in Canada's Tar Sands, as well as their collusion in human rights abuses in Nigeria and Ireland, their destructive drilling in the Arctic, and their contribution to climate change. This followed on from a protest just last week, where BP's recruitment event at the Randolph was similarly disrupted. |
