Oil, war and climate change

	Download poster pdf

The oil economy generates conflict and destruction at every stage of its lethal cycle. It seizes lands, pollutes rivers, and kills or tortures those who stand in its way. It will fight any war and undermine international law to secure new supplies. It fuels the climate change which threatens all our futures with floods, droughts, storms and heatwaves.
Enough!

It's time to break our cycle of oil addiction, confront the companies responsible, and challenge the public funding (our taxes) which makes it possible. It's time to work together for a just future without fossil fuels.

The day will feature speakers, video and workshops on:
the impacts of oil and climate change;
exposing the oil-driven agenda in the recent invasion of Iraq;
the human cost of oil wars;
worldwide resistance to fossil fuel expansion;
action we can take to dismantle the oil economy

The agenda cam be found here.

In the past Rising Tide gatherings have attracted a wide range of people involved in all areas of climate change campaigning. At this years day event we are hoping to reach out to a broader section of people who have been involved in the anti-war movement, international solidarity campaigns and human rights groups.
