"You
want sanity, democracy, community, an intact Earth? We can't get there
obeying Constitutional theory and law crafted by slave masters,
imperialists, corporate masters, and Nature destroyers. We can't get
there kneeling before robed lawyers stockpiling class plunder precedent
up their venerable sleeves. So isn't disobedience the challenge of our
age? Principled, inventive, escalating disobedience to liberate our
souls, to transfigure our work as humans on this Earth." Richard Grossman
"Your
time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't
be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other
people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out
your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow
your heart and intuition." - Steve Jobs
"Dr.
King didn't get famous giving a speech that said,"I have a complaint."
It's time for us to start dreaming again and invite the country to
dream with us. We don't have any "throw away" species, nations, or
children. " Van Jones

Over
the past few years, the world has seen social movements develop
seemingly overnight. Most calls to action, however, take much longer to
come to fruition.
The
modern environmental movement, as we know it, has been around for half a
century, but as new issues arise awareness can be slow to grow.
Back
in June 2010, Truthout’s Mike Ludwig wrote about a blowout in a
Clearfield County, Pennsylvania gas well and the use of “fracking” to
harvest gas. Since
then, we’ve closely chronicled the devastating impact of fracking on
local communities and the battles of the growing anti-fracking movement.
The
Oxford English Dictionary, seen by many as a symbol of mainstream
acceptance of a word or term, added ‘frack’ in November 2013. Truthout
played a key role in the process of creating awareness and putting the
crisis of fracking on the map.
You can set up carbon markets, consumer markets, and just pretend, but if you want to get serious about climate change, really serious, in line with the science, and you want to meet targets like 80 percent emissions cuts by midcentury in the developed world, then you need to be intervening strongly in the economy, and you can’t do it all with carbon markets and offsetting.

Scientists Sound Alarm on Climate
By Justin Gillis, New York Times, 18 March 2014 | Now, at 70, Dr. Molina is trying to awaken the public to an even bigger risk. He spearheaded a committee of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest general scientific society, which released a stark report Tuesday on global warming. The report warns that the effects of human emissions of heat-trapping gases are already being felt, that the ultimate consequences could be dire, and that the window to do something about it is closing. “The evidence is overwhelming: Levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are rising,” says the report. “Temperatures are going up. Springs are arriving earlier. Ice sheets are melting. Sea level is rising. The patterns of rainfall and drought are changing. Heat waves are getting worse, as is extreme precipitation. The oceans are acidifying.”
Amazon Inhales More Carbon than It Emits, NASA Finds
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, 18 March 2014 | A new NASA-led study seven years in the making has confirmed that natural forests in the Amazon remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than they emit, therefore reducing global warming. This finding resolves a long-standing debate about a key component of the overall carbon balance of the Amazon basin. The Amazon’s carbon balance is a matter of life and death: living trees take carbon dioxide out of the air as they grow, and dead trees put the greenhouse gas back into the air as they decompose. The new study, published in Nature Communications on March 18, is the first to measure tree deaths caused by natural processes throughout the Amazon forest, even in remote areas where no data have been collected at ground level.
The dark side of Brazil: Amazon Indian protests at World Cup trophy tour
Survival International, 18 March 2014 | Nixiwaka Yawanawá, an Amazon Indian from Brazil, greeted the World Cup trophy on its arrival in London with a T-shirt saying ‘BRAZIL: STOP DESTROYING INDIANS’. Sporting his tribe’s headdress and facial decorations, Nixiwaka drew attention to Brazil’s attacks on the rights of its indigenous population. Coca-Cola and FIFA prevented Nixiwaka from displaying the full message on his T-Shirt while standing next to the trophy. In the run-up to the FIFA World Cup in June 2014, Nixiwaka and Survival International are highlighting that five hundred years after colonization, Brazilian Indians are still being killed for their lands and resources. While Brazil is presenting itself as a multi-cultural democracy and claims to host a World Cup ‘for everyone’, the government and landowners plan to open up Indian territories for massive industrial projects.
