Earth First! Summer Gathering

http://www.networkforclimateaction.org.uk/gathering_logo.jpg Ecological Direct Action without Compromise

5 days of workshops, skill sharing and planning action, plus low-impact living without leaders.

Meet people, learn skills, take action.

The Earth First! Summer Gathering, this year in Derbyshire, is the place where people involved in radical ecological direct action - or those who want to be involved - get together for five days of time and space to talk, walk, share skills, learn, play, rant, find out what's going on, find out what's next, live outside, strategise, hang out, incite, laugh and conspire.

Brighton's Anarchist Teapot are providing main meals and Veggies Catering Campaign will be co-ordinating the d-i-y cafe, a 'tuck shop' and, at 2pm daily, Vegan Cake Baking Workshops.

Other related workshops:

Thurdsay 2.30: Veganism: the ethical glue binding movements for social change. Is veganism simply the starting point for ethical and sustainable living, or an end in itself? Facilitated by Veggies

Friday 2.30pm: Food Politics & Vegan Mass Catering. A workshop with the Anarchist Teapot about the general politics around food & specific practicalities around vegan mass catering.

Friday 4.30: Campaign Networking for Humans, other Animals & the Environment. How can we build mutual support across seemingly diverse and disparate campaigns. What tools exist for networking and how do we encourage ourselves to make use of them? Facilitated by Veggies.

Saturday 12noon: UK Social Centres Network: networking between radical libertarian social centres of all types and descriptions.

Brinsley Animal Rescue Work Day

/img/arc/brinsleypigs.jpg Brinsley Animal Rescue is a not for profit organisation dedicated to caring for animals. Our primary mission is to relieve the suffering of animals and birds. Many of the animals that come to us are simply ’surplus to requirements’ from the meat, dairy and egg industry. Because such animals are deemed unprofitable then it is our aim to take them on and find them loving homes in which they can enjoy the retirement they deserve.

Nottm AR has regular work days here - fence building, staining, aviary building, mucking out, rabbit run building and more. Transport approx 6.30pm from City Centre - call Danny to confirm: 07593 375270. (Also possibly on Tuesdays from Beeston - call Lee 07599 282851)

Nottingham Greyhound Stadium Demo

http://www.greyhoundaction.org.uk/graphics/GAneedsYou/needButUp.jpg Regular demos fortnightly on Fridays from 6.30pm at the track, til approx 8pm.

Sadly, deaths and serious injuries to dogs running on the tracks are relatively common, and the existence of a major track like Nottingham is responsible for the putting to death of about 500 greyhounds every year. According to the Guardian, March 17th: "Greyhound tracks are closing and the industry isn't doing enough to care for the thousands of dogs who face an uncertain fate"

Nottingham Animal Rights have to educate people about the suffering of racing dogs, leafleting at Nottingham Greyhound Stadium, usually on alternate Friday evenings, from 6pm. If you live in or near the East Midlands area and would like to help, please email to confirm or call c/o 07870 861837.

Camp for Climate Action

http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/actions/edinburgh-2010/nmtb_promo_1.png The 2010 Camp For Climate Action is to be held in Edinburgh, focusing on the Royal Bank of Scotland. After receiving a wopping £45 billion bailout from the UK taxpayer, RBS is serving us another dose of injustice, funding climate crimes through their investment in oil, gas, coal and, more recently, Canadian tar sands.

Nottingham residents may participate in the camp as part of the Eastside "neighbourhood" which also included the good citizens of other Eastern parts of the country including Derby, Cambridge and Norfolk.

See report on Eastside at the 2008 Climate Camp at http://www.veggies.org.uk/event.php?ref=1257
