[NOLAwelcomingcommittee] Climate change got you down?

[noah]

Big greedy corporations got you down? Pissed off about climate change?
Ready to take the fight to the machine?  Come find out how you can join
the struggle.
This is an e-mail inviting you to join Climate Ground Zero (
www.climategroundzero.org ) activists and allies at the Iron rail 511
Marigny street Sunday November 28th at 5pm.
This meeting to introduce people to and catch folks up on the state of the
campaign and get everyone psyched about the winter action camp coming up
in West Virginia.

Who is climate ground zero you may ask. well in their own words:
   Climate Ground Zero is not an environmental organization; it is an
ongoing campaign of non-violent civil resistance in southern West
Virginia to end mountaintop removal.

   In West Virginia, an overwhelming majority of residents are opposed to
mountaintop removal mining. However, political interests are highly
invested in the coal industry and the EPA and the West Virginia DEP
refuse to take real action to protect the environment and the people of
West Virginia.

    In order to stop mountaintop removal, we need to awaken the country to
the devastation that mountaintop removal inflicts on one of the most
biodiverse regions in the world, Appalachia, and its people. Since
Climate Ground Zero came to West Virginia in 2009, hundreds of
activists have come to the coalfields and stood with the residents of
West Virginia to demand an end to the destruction.

And for those of you all ready to commit pre-meeting here is where you can
find an application.
