Another Road to Doomsday: Planetary Biocide
2021 State of the Planet

George Stone Ph.D.
Professor Emeritus of Natural Science, MATC

Dr. Stone's talk will have a "special emphasis on decreasing biodiversity and rising extinction rates, and on the increasing probabilities of pandemics."

Nairobi, 18 February 2021 – The world can transform its relationship with nature and tackle the climate, biodiversity and pollution crises together to secure a sustainable future and prevent future pandemics, according to a new report by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) that offers a comprehensive blueprint for addressing our triple planetary emergency.
 
The report, Making Peace with Nature, lays out the gravity of these three environmental crises by drawing on global assessments, including ... new findings on the emergence of zoonotic diseases such as COVID-19.

Time: Tuesday, April 9, 7 - 8:30pm

Chase and Wells Fargo Banks
Wisconsin Ave & Water St

From Pam Richard:

  • Wells Fargo has the third most fossil fuel investments of all banks in the world, and is a lead financier of the tar sands industry. 
  • Add your voice to the growing demand to banks like Chase, Citi, Bank of America and TD Bank to STOP financing Line 3.
  • Send a direct email to CEOs now to demand that they stop funding the toxic Line 3 pipeline. Your email will go directly to the inboxes of CEOs, executives, and Board members of the banks funding Line 3.
  • Send a letter to President Joe Biden (goes to the White House directly) asking him to #StopLine3.
  • You can share your own story why Biden needs to Stop Line 3 now securely and safely.

We appreciate your support.
Together we will Stop Line 3

Stop Line 3 petition

Read Enbridge Fort Atkinson, WI petroleum spill

That's like SE Wisconsin's backyard!

That March 29. 2021 Journal/Sentinal article is titled "'I can't trust them anymore': Residents of Fort Atkinson shocked that 2019 petroleum spill by Enbridge went unreported for over a year".

Yes, that's the same Enbridge trying to build the Line 3 Tar Sands pipeline!

That's TAR SANDS OIL, the world's most polluting oil!

If you haven't already, sign the petition today
Then scroll back up and use some of Pam Richard's links

Line 3 is a massive pipeline underway in northern Minnesota that violates Indigenous rights and it would carry pollution equivalent to 50 coal power plants.

The bulldozers have arrived to plow through sacred wild rice watersheds, over 800 wetlands, and 200+ bodies of water. Indigenous water protectors are fighting to protect their land, but the drones are overhead and the police are militarizing.

President Biden has the power to stop this project. He can review the permits granted by Trump and halt Line 3 construction immediately.

This will be the first climate test for his administration and we are making it clear that the Line 3 pipeline must be stopped.

Please
sign the petition calling on Joe Biden to #StopLine3 immediately and invoke a climate test for all pipelines.
