Polonia aktywna relacjonuje protesty podczas COP 15

English above

W "Polonii Aktywnej" będziemy kontynuować zdawanie relacji z protestów przeciw konferencji klimatycznej COP 15 w Kopenhadze, gdzie ci co najbardziej odpowiedzialni są za zmiany klimatyczne będą obradować jak zrobić na tym jeszcze większy interes i jakie jeszcze większe fałszywe rozwiązania wcisnąć ludziom, by się nie czepiali, a przede wszystkim nie sięgali po prawdziwe rozwiązania, nie zmniejszali konsumpcji, kontynuowali jedzenie mięsa i jeżdżenie samochodem na "ekologicznym bio" paliwie itp. Po za tym bedziemy starali się zrelacjonować co się działo w Kopenhadze. Po za tym jak zwykle selekcja ważnych i pozytywnych wiadomości głównie z www.positi.blogspot.com, cia.bzzz.net oraz pl.indymedia.org itp.

W Awakening także relacja z COP 15. Będziemy starali się dać głos tym co w tych konferencjach byli pominięci i wraz z nimi będziemy się starali wyjaśnić dlaczego zmiana klimatu to nie tylko problem ekologiczny.Po nad to ciąg dalszy o akcji bezpośredniej z książki DIY, a po za tym jak starczy czasu, parę rad ekologicznych z książki "Zrób Różnicę" .

Jeśli chcesz przedstawić nam to co robisz(organizację,swój skłot, działalność, w którą się angażujesz, wszystko inne co Ci leży na sercu itp. )skontaktuj się, przyślij nam materiał(najlepiej audio)lub jeszcze lepiej umów się na skypa lub zadzwoń do studia. Do usłyszenia

Radio patapoe jest zarówno internetowe jak i w eterze. Normalne fale mają zasięg lokalny, a przez internet można nas słuchać na całym świecie. Jesteśmy radiem pirackim. Słuchają je głównie skłotersi, studenci, lecz także starsi ludzie , po których raczej bym się nie spodziewał. Ogólnie staramy się by było jak najbardziej zróżnicowane.

Z jedynych ograniczeń jakie mogę zauważyć to, to że nie puszczamy żadnej komercyjnej papki. Staramy się tworzyć alternatywę, a nie powielać stacje nastawione na zysk. Dlatego nie ma u nas żadnych reklam. Głównie przeważa muzyka eksperymentalna i elektroniczna, dużo jest reggae, dub, techno i punk. Po za tym audycje jakie miałyby małe szanse zaistnieć w komercyjnym radiu. Ja z Pipi w każdy wtorek od około 16.00 do 19.30 gramy program "awakening" (patrz plakat po prawej stronie , pod linkami na stronach) w skład, którego wchodzi też "Polonia Aktywna"(od~18.30 do 19.30). Gadamy non stop przez ponad trzy godziny o ważnych dla nas sprawach : skłoterskich , politycznych, wolnościowych, ekologicznych, duchowych, prawach ludzi , prawach zwierząt itp. Czasem zapraszamy gości z różnych społecznych organizacji, by udzielili nam wywiadu o tym co robią. W tle przeważnie leci jakiś anarcho punk z inteligentnym przekazem w innym języku niż rozmawiamy, by słowa się nie mieszały. Posłuchaj sam...

No Borders Demonstration


Then at 11AM a NO BORDERS demonstration meeting at Israel Plads, Vesterbrogade, has proceed to march to the via Nørre Voldgade and Gothersgade, where around 1,500 protestors formed a solid block enclosed by people with arms linked in front of the Danish Ministry of Defence at Holmenskanal 42, near Holmens Bro. Speeches were given around the fact that "Climate Change is an issue in terms of migration because the Global South is suffering and the borders are trying to repress them". The protest then crossed Holmens bro bridge and moved on to Slotsplads where it continued as a solid bloc.
In Slotplads the demonstrators succeeded in untethering a large orange balloon advertising the COP15 process. [videos 1 | 2] The police struggled to keep it tied down, but it was eventually liberated. The police then moved in and most of the crowd dispersed, although some were trapped there by a police kettle. Eventually the crowd managed to break out of the kettle and crossed Knippel Bro onto Torvsgade. The main body of the demo then moved towards Chrstiania followed by a large number of riot police who eventually left the demo alone. Once the demo arrived at Chrstiania the crowd dispersed in high spirits. But later in the evening, when people was attending a pre "Reclaim Power party, police attacked Christiania wtih tear gas and batton charges arresting a number of people

Paradox - let the christmas trees grow - video

People are burning christmas trees on museum squer in Amsterdam. In the era of climate change i think is very bad to cut few years old trees just to have them for few weeks and then burn them. Such disrespect for the nature we would like to teach our children? To celebrate birth of God do we have to kill the tree? Why to make global warming even bigger by seting such fire? Please stop this madness to change climate for better ! Don't buy the trees, don't cut them, don't burn them. Let them breath for us all!

Via Campesina: Traders failed in Copenhagen





Press release - La Via Campesina

Traders failed in Copenhagen
The future lies in people's hands

(Copenhagen, 19 December 2009) The Copenhagen climate talks ended up in
failure. Governments of the world showed themselves incapable or unwilling
to make the changes necessary to find a just solution to the climate
chaos. The talks have been driven by self interest and trade "solutions"
that have so far proven useless and even damaging.

Josie Riffaud, a leader of the farmers movement Via Campesina said: "Money
and market solutions will not resolve the current crisis. We need instead
a radical change in the way we produce and we consume, and this is what
was not discussed in Copenhagen".  The governments of the industrialized
and industrializing countries showed themselves to be unwilling to tackle
the model of development which has created and economic and environmental
disaster.

They were incapable to consider real solutions and to see that carbon
markets will not solve the climate crisis.

The drastic emissions cuts (included in a biding deal), reorientation of
agro-export economies, agrarian reform and other measures which could
really contribute to slowing the heating of the earth were not discussed
or considered. Once again governments acting in individual self interest
have failed to consider the real alternatives offered by International
social movements, environmental groups, indigenous peoples and others in
creating a more just and fair society.

Even though the "Copenhagen deal" doesn't mention agriculture explicitely,
it seemed during the two weeks talk that the UNFCCC wanted to include
soils in the carbon capture methods, and include agriculture in it's
technology transfer – opening up space for transnational companies to
receive subsidies for introducing GMO seeds and industrial agricultural
methods such as non-till agriculture. This is exactly the type of
agricltural development that has led us to the current environmenent and
social crisis in the countryside.

The real power in Copenhagen was expressed in the streets and in the halls
of the Bella centre on the 16th of December, when activists, community
groups, international and local social movements and NGOs from the North
and south pushed to meet each other in a symbolic "3rd" space outside the
Bella center.

The vicious repression of the police, including the preemptive arrest of
many of the spokespeople of the movement "Climate Justice Action" further
showed the desperation of governments to prevent the voices of real
solutions to be heard.

We cannot look to governments to provide a magical solution to the Climate
Crisis. Under the guidance of transnational corporations, they only
prepare a further round of capital speculation, this time using Carbon,
the building blocks of life itself as their stocks and shares.

In front of the failure of the COP 15 – international social movements are
more ready than ever to tackle the problems of the world and will mobilise
for the next climate conference in Mexico due at the end of 2010; their
time has come and governments will have no choice but to listen.

Giving the Voice to the South.System Change Not Climate Change.Video from the demo

So many people... and that still just small part of the demo. More from the walking part, views and interviews from the demonstration 12.12.09 (and others too) would come soon.
100,000 Protest at COP15./ by imc feature.
Saturday 12th began with the Flood for Climate Justice Demonstration feeding into the main 12dec Demo which included a CJA group. It soon became clear that it was a massive demonstration, with estimates quickly reaching 100,000 protestors. It was a part of a Global Day of Action on climate change.

Free Climate Justice Prisoners.Demonstration on COP 15


Over the past week, tens of thousands of people from across the planet have taken to the streets of Copenhagen demanding real and just solutions to climate change. But on the streets, as well as inside the UN Climate Change Conference, delegates and outsiders alike are doubting that the conference will reach a deal that isnt a disaster for most of the world.
Inside the Bella Centre, where the UN delegates are meeting, numerous critical voices have been marginalised through technical and procedural manoeuvres. Others, like Friends of the Earth International, have had their accreditation revoked. Outside, the policing of protest has been consistently draconian and occasionally brutal.
On Saturday 12 December, almost 1,000 participants in a Climate March through Copenhagen were arrested. On Monday 14 December, hundreds more were arrested at a party in the citys Christiania district following a public meeting, addressed by Canadian journalist Naomi Klein and others. On Tuesday 15 December, Tadzio Mueller, a spokesperson for Climate Justice Action, was arrested by undercover police officers following a press conference at the Bella Centre.
This morning, on Wednesday 16 December, Tadzio appeared before a judge on a number of charges relating to his public support for todays Reclaim Power demonstration. The declared aim of Reclaim Power also supported by social movements, many conference delegates and other civil society actors is to hold a Peoples Assembly at the Bella Centre, to discuss real solutions to climate change. At this mornings court hearing the judge decided to hold Tadzio for a further three days, after which he will reappear in court. There are reports that the hearing was closed to the public.
Meanwhile, hundreds more protesters have been arrested today and there have been numerous reports of police brutality and the extensive use of batons, pepper spray and tear gas. We have also heard of further arrests of individual activists by undercover police officers.
We, the undersigned, not only lend our support to those in Copenhagen seeking to push for real and just solutions to climate change, but also demand the following:
• The immediate release of Tadzio Mueller and all other climate prisoners;
• A halt to the criminalisation and intimidation of activists, including the pre-emptive detaining of protesters in Copenhagen;
• The immediate re-instatement of accreditation withdrawn from NGOs and other critical voices at the Climate Summit
