Global Action:

Fossil fueled filibusters

Climate change deniers credit card
 

Big fossil fuel corporations don’t want to lose their fancy profits for something so stupid and childish, like the idea of “saving the earth for future generations”.  “What have these future generations done for us?” these companies ask with reason.

These good old well oiled corporations have not given up. They have a dream too. And there are people who share their dream. The movement of global warming advocates who want us to go on living in this fossil fueled fact free fantasyland forever. Some of these living fossils have also been seen at Copenhagen UN Climate Conference.

Is Copenhagen climate treaty an endangered species?

Seal the real climate deal!
 

TheCopenhagen climate treaty is at risk to fail. Only three weeks before the Copenhagen summit many politicians have said, that the legally binding climate deal will be delayed by six months, or even a year. Can we afford that?

The International Energy Agency (IEA) gives a hint:

“The International Energy Agency (IEA) has announced in its latest World Energy Outlook that every year of delayed action to address climate change will add $500 Billion to the price tag of saving the planet…”

Non-governmental organizations say the climate treaty can be saved:

If you want to save the Copenhagen climate treaty, you can for example sign United Nations’s “Seal the Deal” campaign petition:

Shell vs. Ken Saro Wiwa

Stop Shell - Ken Saro Wiwa poster
 

Nigerian environmental activist and writer Ken Saro Wiwa was executed in November 1995.  He was convicted by a military tribunal of the Nigerian military junta. Ken Saro Wiwa helped Ogoni people to organize non-violent protests against the the impact of Shell oil exploration, which  was destroying the environment at the Niger Delta.

Today 27th May 2009 Shell is in court in New York accused of crimes against humanity over its activities in the Niger Delta. Read the whole article from the Guardian: 14 years after Ken Saro-Wiwa’s death, family points finger at Shell in court

I made the poster above in 1997 for the Kumppani-magazine. Printable version for non-commercial use can be downloaded here. (3,6 mt).
