Deep ecology, bike carts 4 organic gardens

by moth Saturday, Mar. 06, 2004 at 7:50 AM

water, air, tierra y forests do not belong to any corporation, when oxygen is sold in smog ridden cities, our human right to clean air is sold as a commodity. Coca-cola claims ownership of aquifers in chiapas, making agua into a luxury 4 the wealthy. We reclaim the forests, air and water for all living beings, not the property of corporations.

other options besides petroleum dependency..

bike carts for bioregional organic food distribution, less smog from SUVs/ trucks means children have healthier lungs..

when oxygen is sold in Orange County, LA and other smog choked cities, a human right to clean oxygen air becomes a commercial "property" stored in tanks by the oxygen salesmen. Guaranteed people in South Central, Long Beach, etc. cannot afford to sit in an oxygen bar for a 15 minute breath of mountain forest air locked in a metal corporate cannister..

lawns use mas agua (Rio Colorado) and provide little. Community gardens in Mal-wart parking lots and corporate lawns would feed many. Food could be grown here instead, harvesting edible dandylions or planting garlic instead of petroleum 4 lawnmower..

hemp oil 4 lubrication, hemp fiber 4 paper (less lignin in hemp means less energy needed 4 pulping). The timber corporations needlesly waste electricity on pulping hardwood trees when hemp fiber would make softer paper..

bikes not bombs, food not lawns..

agua is derechos humanos, water is a human right. Coca-cola claims ownership of aquifers in Chiapas, is it coincidence Mexican Pres Vincentes Fox was former Coca-cola CEO? When the world's largest soft drink corporation gains access to so precious a life sustaining aquifer, we fear the Mexican government is following the facsist tendencies of the US/Bush imperialism. Not 2 mention PEMEX oil monopoly set to be ?absorbed/?merged by/with EXXONmobil in the Plan Puebla Panama trade agreements, another free trade rip off similar to FTAA/WTO.

Autonomous villages like Tlalnepantla in Morelos were invaded by Mexican military with US forces in Texas (Tejas) watching closely. Autonomy in the region where nopalitos (edible native cactus) are grown must frighten the elite in Mexican corporate government. Now the US military has relocated to Haiti 4 reasons unknown. (del mar de Caribe cerca Columbia y Venezuala?) almost certain there is some increase in cocaine trade and weapons being smuggled to right wing paramilitaties in Columbia and Mexican gov and corporate soldier/mercenaries..

oxygen. water, trees and plants belong to nobody but Madre Tierra, Mom Earth..

no timber company can claim ownership of Madre Tierra's forests/selvas. Simpson, Weyerhauser, International Paper, Boise Cascade, MAXXAM/Pacific Lumber, etc. have done enough damage under corporate rule. Clay exposed clearcuts, species extinctions, salmon choking on sediment, topsoil erosion, home destroying landslides and unemployed loggers are left after the unsustainable short term profit clearcutting corporations are through destroying habitat. we do not recognize corporate ownership of property, the forests belong to all living beings, any plant, fungi, animal, protista and human..

as a little brown bird tells me,

"Property Schmoperty!!"

Red Black and Green solidarity, we ask the anarchist red/green "factions" to put aside small differences and come together to deal with commom enemy, corporate capitalism y US imperialism. Methods used and process need dialogue, but division benefits the corporate elite..
