Broeinest ma 28 mei: film over Climate Camp GB
Broeinest - 25.05.2007 23:32

Broeinest maandag 28 mei
Film 'Reclaim Power: activists against climate change - a new social movement?'





Broeinest Monday 28 May: Film screening

*Reclaim Power: activists against climate change – a new social movement?*
Plantage Doklaan 10-12, Amsterdam, 20.00 - 24.00
www.broeinest.info

(english below)

Een film van de Duitse videogroep Cinerebelde over het Camp for Climate Action die in de zomer van 2006 met 600 mensen gehouden werd bij een van de grootste C02-vervuilers in Europa: de Drax steenkool-elektriciteitscentrale in Yorkshire. Op het camp, dat 10 dagen bestond, werden meer dan honderd workshops gehouden over allerlei aspecten van klimaatverandering.

In de film wordt zowel ingegaan op de milieuproblematiek als op toekomstscenarios en welk soor actie nodig zou zijn om er wat aan te doen.

Interessant is de visie op de actiestrategie die de Britten ontwikkeld hebben de afgelopen jaren. Van comunicatieguerilla tot kritische kunst en directe actie en bezettingen. Een rode draad door de film is dat overheden en bedrijven niets zullen veranderen. Het enige alternatief is dat we dat zelf doen. Discussie na de film zal gaan over hoe en wat we van onderop kunnen organiseren de komende vijf a tien jaar, voordat het echt te laat is.

-------------------------

This film by the German video group Cinerebelde is a documentary report on the Camp for Climate Action that was set up in the summer of 2006 and saw 600 people convinced that there is no time to waste, trying to shut down one of the biggest C02 emitters in Europe: Drax coal-fired power station in Yorkshire / UK. With over one hundred workshops on a wide range of topics, the 10 day camp was a space of collective learning, sustainable living and taking direct action on the root causes of climate change.

'Reclaim Power' lets scientists speak about what climate change is, what we can expect to happen the next few years and what kind of radical changes are needed to turn the tables. It highlights how the camp showed practical low energy solutions in action as well as its focus on mass direct action, culminating in a day of protest in an attempt to shut down Drax.

Of interest here are the strategies that climate activists in the UK have developed these past years, from communication guerrilla and critical art to mass direct action and occupations. There is a dominant message repeated throughout the film: that governments and corporations are not going to change the world so that there is only one alternative: we have to. How we should go about doing it and if climate activists will form an 'exciting new social movement' in the next five to ten years, the time we have to ‘get our act together before it’s too late’, will be points of discussion this evening at the Broeinest.

Language: English with English subtitles.
