Join us in Copenhagen on the mass protest on the 12th of December, 2009!

The catastrophe is real and climate change is one of its many symptoms. The COP15s inevitable talk of saving the world from the climate crisis is an elaborate hoax to disguise the COP15s true purpose: to restore the legitimacy of global capitalism by inaugurating an era of green capitalism. A new rhetoric of saving the climate will exist to justify their repression, their fortified borders, their colonial resource wars. To give the Emperor new clothes. Our response to this astounding lie is an uncompromising and absolute NO to their system.

More has to be shaken than our holiday habits to sustain the world for times to come. It would be foolish to pin our hopes upon the very people who continue to kill off the planet for money. At Copenhagen, they will argue over how to properly create a market to commodify and so pollute the biosphere, dispossessing millions of people from their land to profit from destroying what remains of our earth. Governments and corporations will not sacrifice their growth to reduce carbon emissions, or only do so in order to create a new authoritarian regime for themselves.

The entire rhetoric of the climate crisis and the financial crisis is a cynical maneouvre by the state spin-doctors to deny the all-encompassing crisis of self-declared civilization. The COP15 will only attempt to hide the war that capitalism is waging against all life on the planet, a war that has spread across the entire globe for the last five hundred years, a war that encompasses the totality of even the oceans and atmosphere. In the midst of war, one does not talk of management and technical solutions. You cannot fight a war by pretending the war does not exist, by blinding yourself to repression and becoming complicit in accepting the false-promise of a petit bourgeois tranquility. Instead, one recognizes the enemy. One chooses a position. One fights.

Only by ridding ourselves of those who claim to be representing us and by defeating the ideology of endless economic growth, industrial production and consumption can we take control of our lives and planet. It is time to state: we are going to consciously attack the structures supporting the COP15: we will break through the lines of their police; we will refuse to negotiate with warmongering governments and the embedded media; we will refuse to side with sell-out NGOs and all the would-be managers of protest; we will refuse all governments and governance and not just de-legitimize the present ones. It is time to state why we think that insurrection is needed to actually begin the change everybody is so desperate for. Acting together in fundamental opposition to those in power we might get a first glimpse of the richness and opportunities possible when ideas, experiences and concepts are shared amongst people from all over the world.

  • whats the first sound track

  • first song is "Requiem for a Dream"- Soundtrack

  • Global warming is going on in the whole solar system and how big is the earth in relation to the sun - VERY, VERY LITTLE, and CO2 on a micro-planet can not cause global warming - you do not have to be Einstein to add 2 + 2. Protesting and reacting will not change it - you take back the power by aligning to what you are and then you (k)now what to do always, since fear is not the motivator then - but your purpose for being here.

  • Yes, I am very well aware of this.. However global warming is used as a tool to endure unfair policies and introduce new horrendous capitalistic policies to our societies - and we will not let that happen!

  • What are you guys against exactly?

    Because its easy to put palestinians and hungry

    people anb blame it on the world leaders or "system".

    Maybe you just search for a excuse to trash and riot ?

    Do you know the UNFCCC? have you read it?

    Any other option to combat climate change?, or is that also a control thing by the "system"? Have you read the science behind Climate Change?

  • WTF?! oh no, I'm sorry the world leaders are doing all they can to prevent hungry people and poverty!! You would probably amazed, because I actually know a lot about the UNFCC and know people working within it! And all of them who want REAL solutions say there's no way in talking anymore, and they're just so sick of it!!!
