Call on Broxtowe Council to reject Trowell Zoo application

 


A date has been set for Broxtowe Council to discuss the controversial Trowell Zoo application and we need YOU to help the Council reject it.

It is up to us to show that this green belt flood plain land should remain undeveloped, and that authorising NEW zoos is a step backwards in 2024.

Our Animal Rising supporters in the midlands have worked tirelessly throughout 2023, and into 2024 to call on Broxtowe Council to reject the zoo application.

This is your chance to join our efforts as we gather outside of the Town Hall, Foster Avenue, Beeston, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG9 1AB at 5:30pm on Wednesday 13th March and call on the Council to decline plans for further animal exploitation, and to protect our local wildlife and green spaces

For more information see the statement from Born Free Foundation

Born Free strongly opposes the exploitation and keeping of wild animals in captivity and campaigns to Keep Wildlife in the Wild.

Reclaim the Power Mass Protest Camp

Reclaim the Power is back with a mass action camp targeting Drax, a wood biomass power station located near Selby, in Yorkshire.

Drax is a former coal-power station that converted to biomass, and now entirely burns wood biomass. Drax is the UKs single largest carbon emitter and world’s biggest tree burner. Their actions have been repeatedly linked to driving environmental racism and causing huge amounts of harm to communitiesforests and biodiversity.

Communities in the Southern US where many of the trees are processed are trapped in their homes by the air pollution this generates. They are calling on us to shut down the £1.66 million pounds of ‘green’ subsidies that we pay every day to make Drax’s business model viable.

New investigation finds Drax has continued sourcing from rare old growth forest ⤵️  This comes at a time when Drax is asking the gov for £billions more in subsidies – from our energy bills!

The UK Government has announced proposals to use our energy bills to give huge new subsidies to fund planet-wrecking tree burning at power stations like Drax in Yorkshire and Lynemouth in Northumberland.  Please write to your MP asking them to stop the new subsidies for burning trees in UK power stations. 

Reclaim the Power is a UK based direct action network fighting for social, environmental and economic justice. We aim to build a broad based movement, working in solidarity with frontline communities to effectively confront environmentally destructive industries and the social and economic forces driving climate change.

Veggies is delighted to be providing Vegan Campaign Catering. More details to follow.

Free the MBR Beagles Demo at Home Office & Parliament

‼️JOIN US‼️ Next Monday 18th October outside of Westminster Hall in London. There will be Food By Veggies

Let’s make some noise for the EDM 175! A hearing to hold a scientific and public review into animal testing!

This is monumental in the animals rights movement! There has been NOTHING like this since 1906. We must ensure the government conduct this milestone review with integrity. The last time this was promised was before the 1997 Labour elections. More details from Free the MBR Beagles on facebook.

Some of you may remember Barry Horne, the activist who died on hunger strike in a bid to get the government to uphold their promise of a Royal Commission into vivisection. November 6th will mark the death of his 20 year anniversary.

Let’s unite and make sure animal research is abolished like it should have been back in 1906 ❤️

Join us for #FoodByVeggies.

 


We are living through a period of multiple breaking points – from climate to covid to racism. We know that these crises not only overlap, but share the same cause. 
While no one can escape the impacts of these crises, those who have done least to cause them suffer the most. Across the world, the poorest people and communities of colour are too often those bearing the brunt of the climate crisis. From coastal villages in Norfolk whose sea-defenses are eroding faster than ever, to people living by the Niger Delta rivers blackened by oil spillage.

We are calling for:

NO MORE COOKING. THE BOOKS: No To Fossil Fuels, Net-zero And False Solutions!
– Fight For 1.5
– We Need Real Zero, Not Net Zero
– Keep It In The Ground: No New Fossil Fuel Investments Or Infrastructure
– Reject False Solutions: No To Carbon Markets And Risky And Unproven Technologies

REWIRE THE SYSTEM: Start The Justice Transition Now!
– Start The Justice Transition

GLOBAL CLIMATE JUSTICE: Reparations And Redistribution To The Global South!
– Fair share of effort from all rich countries
– Cancel the debts of Global South by all creditors
– Grant-based climate finance for the Global South
– Reparations for the loss and damage already happening in the Global South
