pic. I know personally, an internationally renown activist. She is constantly working to use her life, her body, her very being... to save humanity. Seems there is no personal price she wouldn’t pay. She doesn't play to play. She plays to win. I don’t know any others besides her, Malala, Aung San... This is why the future is doomed, unless you join her. Now. (She is shy. I’ll not name and embarrass her.)

***** pic. You’ll know that you want to stop ecocide, in time, when... detail...

You’ll know that you want to stop ecocide, in time, when, as the Greatest Generation did, you’ve dropped everything, and run and put your very being in way of the greatest emergency ever to confront children, grandchidlren, all of humanity, and all of Creation. Until then, stopping ecocide is just a feel-good hobby for you.

BTW, how many people will have to risk it all to stop an industry bankrolled by $50 trillion in fossil fuel reserves, and sociopathic enough to destroy everything to get it?

All I see, anywhere on the global warming scene, are hobbyists. The 1 in a million exception proves the rule.

BREAKING! 2 Activists locked down, 8 detained at Devon Tower in OKC. Fighting Tar Sands. link. Bail Fund.

BREAKING! 2 Activists locked down, 8 detained at Devon Tower in OKC.

Two activists with Great Plains Tar Sands Resistance (GPTSR) and Cross Timbers Earth First! locked themselves inside a revolving door at the Devon Tower in protest of Devon’s involvement in toxic tar sands extraction and fracking, as well as plans to increase fracking in the Eagle Ford Shale.

Simultaneously, a banner displaying a Mockingjay from the Hunger Games series was unfurled from the second story, reading: “The Odds are Never in Our Favor.”

Read more about the action: http://gptarsandsresistance.org/breaking-earth-first-activists-lock-down-inside-devon-tower-in-protest-of-tar-sands-extraction-and-plans-to-frack-the-eagle-ford-shale/

This action coincides with two days of trial for folks in the Mi’kmaq Warrior Society who were arrested while preventing natural gas exploration on their traditional lands.
UPDATE: 8 folks scene have been detained and placed in cop cars, waiting to hear on what charges they were arrested. The whole street is blocked off and firefighters are surrounding the door that folks are locked down to. On a brighter note, check out this banner. And donate to our bail fund at: http://gptarsandsresistance.org/donate/

Depression Update: Part of my depression has been because of confusion and mis-direction... detail.

Note to my Activist sister:

I'm feeling better. Won't know if I'm out of the woods yet, for weeks, but
my Spirit is gradually coming back to life.  Depression is energy being
destroyed in the Heart, and a movement to Head and Flesh.  Recovery
is restarting the Heart.  Hard work, but I seem to be doing it yet again.

Part of my depression was the Sheroic actions at Portland Rising,
Tar Sands Blockade, Arctic 30... trying to give me hope.  I am in awe
of the courage.  But, but, but, but... what is missing, my Heart keeps
asking...???

There is an old story, about the professor that is outside work, in the snow,
at night, under the lamp post, looking for his car keys that he dropped. 
Another professor sees him, and joins in the search, then another....
They are oh, so, scientific in their approaches!  After a long time of failing,
one of the professors says, 'where did you drop your keys?' 'Over there,'
the professor says, pointing to a dark area 30 yards away. 'WHY ARE WE
LOOKING HERE?!?!?' the 1st professor says in exasperation!!!  'Well,
because the light is GOOD here!'

I think that Portland Rising, et all, ROCK BLESS THEM, are that.  What
we NEED to be going after is ALL OF IT, NOW  - STOPPING CARBON
FUEL - LEGISLATION OR CARBON-WRECKAGE PRICE. Yes, it is
impossible!  These smaller goals are needed, and possible!  But they
are too little, too late, AND THE BAD GUYS ARE JUST RUNNING OUT
THE CLOCK.  tic. tic. tic.

Just sharin.

Ohio Group Opposes Frack Waste Dumping At South-Side Business. nbc4i.com

NBC4 in Columbus did a great video report on a public meeting held on Dec. 3 by "Radioactive Waste Alert". They are a citizen's group trying to protect their city's landfill from serving as a waste dump for radioactive drill cuttings left over after fracking. Could your community be the next waste disposal target? Please watch this video and become informed on yet another reason fracking should be stopped!
