14)
One more event added to the May'12 Agenda!!
this
one in the UK scheduled for May 3rd
The
Big Six Energy Bash- MASS ACTION!
THE
IDEA: Climate Justice Collective takes to the streets to block
the energy monopoly going on behind closed doors at the UK Energy
Summit. Companies like EDF, Npower, EON and Scottish Power as well
Shell and BP are conspiring with government to line their pockets at
the cost of people locked in fuel poverty. The Big Six energy
companies are the obstacle to democratic energy systems that could
keep the sea levels down and get the heating on in fuel poverty
homes. We want a socialized grid not a corporate monopoly - the UK
Energy Summit cannot go ahead!
