Ros's 'Have You?' Newsletter September 2011

Tue, Sep 13 2011 09:27 | Newsletter, Ros, Have You | Permalink

Have You?

Heard it...? Radio 4's Afternoon Play 'Getting to Zero' written by Sarah Woods with George Monbiot, Paul Allen and Peter Harper. Note from Claire - We are currently looking for a MP3 of this play - alas currently no joy.

Read it...? 'Captive State' by George Monbiot. 'The Transition Handbook' by Rob Hopkins. Note from Claire - The previous link is the handbook available in pfd with various tools and a nice introduction from that nice Caroline Lucas.

Seen it...? 'The Story of Stuff' by Annie Leonard. 'The Power of Community' or How Cuba Survived Peak Oil. 'The Girl Who Silenced The World'. Note from Claire - The last link dates from 1993. It's been nearly twenty years since Severn Suzuki, a 12 year old girl, stood before the United Nations and demanded answers. Twenty years of hot air and inaction.

Googled it...? 'The Transition Movement'... 'The Centre for Alternative Technology'... 'Greenpeace'... '6 Degrees Warmer'

Acted on it...? Signed up for Ecotricity... Throw away the TV ...Go to a Sustainable Event or Meeting... Help at a Swap Shop ...Eat local, seasonal food... Visited a Wind Farm ...Signed a Petiton at Avvaz..
