Our way of life — industrial civilization — is destroying the planet.
From coral reefs to the great forests, the last strongholds of the
wild are falling. The climate is destabilizing. And we are entering the
6th mass extinction of life on Earth. Ecological collapse is here.
This unprecedented crisis demands extraordinary solutions. And yet,
governments and mainstream environmental groups are failing to chart a
path towards a livable future. What is to be done?
This November 19th, join the philosopher poet of the deep ecology
movement Derrick Jensen, radical eco-feminist author and strategist
Lierre Kieth, and special guests Saba Malik and Robert Jensen for a
special 3-hour live streaming event, Collapse: Ecology, Climate, and Civilization starting at 3pm Pacific Time and hosted by Deep Green Resistance.
This event will explore issues of collapse (ecological, climatic, and
civilizational) with a focus on organized, political resistance to slow
and mitigate the worst aspects of collapse and accelerate the positive
impacts. There will be opportunities to ask questions and participate
in dialogue.
This event is also a fundraiser, because the mainstream environmental
movement is funded mainly by foundations which don’t want foundational
or revolutionary change. Radical organizations like Deep Green
Resistance rely on individual donors to support our work.
We are raising $25,000 to fund a national speaking tour, a
community-led hydropower dam resistance campaign in the Philippines,
land-defense campaigns addressing mining and biodiversity, training
programs for activists around the world, and other organizational work.
Whether or not you are in a financial position to donate, we hope you will join us this November 19th for this special event!
