Gulf Oil Spill Aftereffects to be the Focus of #Commons Media

Submitted by Kevin Hansen on July 27, 2010 - 17:42

In light of the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf, the Commons we share there are more important than ever. We will be filming there in mid-August, to share the effect of the current system - and the alternatives of better management around the principles of the Commons.

An example of the remarkable work done by people eager to protect their world can be seen on the website of the LA Bucket Brigade (http://oilspill.labucketbrigade.org/main) and shown below with some data as of July 27th, 2010. Note that these are largely citizen-collected data and reporting:

 

Not Hotter, Not Drier, Not Here.

New Mexico is one of the hottest, driest States in the US. Because of global warming, it is getting a lot hotter, a lot drier.

Especially in the United States, we need to pass bold, comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation. 1Sky.org is leading in the US - join the movement. Take action. Make history, especially for the already-dry southwestern US, where conditions are worsening. In Mexico City this year, the United Nations COP16 event will try to extent this work to a global treaty

Ask your freinds and other citizens to take action.

Educate yourself.

Motivate yourself.

Change the world.
