Germany: Hambi Preparation for Conference of Polluters 23, Ende Galaende, Climate Demos, and Actions

from Hambach Forest

As the corporate elites fronted by global fossil cartels co-opt and monopolize the UN Climate Negotiations bringing it into the largest lignite district in Germany this year and into Katowice Poland, the center of Silesian Coal Mining district for the next Climate Summit. It is only radical, direct-action and grass-roots responses that are becoming the last line of defense between present day disaster capitalism with its waves of repression and state-corporate propaganda and an unlivable planet of ecological and social collapse. As people from the frontlines of rising oceans, climate and ecological collapse come to Bonn this year a mobilization and hospitality invitations go out of the Millenarian Hambacher Forest that is shrinking every year under the encroaching single largest CO2 emitter RWE’s open cast lignite mine, shrinking but not without resistance. So bring the story of your struggles to the Forest, Camp, Sing and Create another climate justice reality that is not just possible but is alive and well in the Hambacher Forest and has been for last 5 years.

Through-out the Climate-Justice Convergence, that will be the response to COP23, workshops, skillshares, safe spaces and info tables will be organized through out the forest. The food and shelter infrastructure can only accomodate a limited number of activist so if possible bring camping equipment and extra food with you. Be aware that it is possible that attempts will be made to disrupt organizing and actions so if possible try not to camp in large concentrations but see the ancient Hambacher forest by distributing your camp sites.

If you have the copacity please bring extra water,check the online wish list and if blocked and not able to make it to the forest document and disseminate the controls and repression info. This year over 20 treehouses of the forest occupation lay in the deforestation zone so contacts, solidarity actions and help reocuppying in the case of repression and evictions would be greatly appreciated.

For The Planet Worth living On!
