Science for interest

nanotecnologia A large number of scientific investigators perceive science as being neutral, they speak of 'pure science', such experts as search for the truth for the sake of it. They have wished that we forget the origins of science, to the point of proposing that it was born exclusively from curiosity, refusing to see the coincidence of scientific discoveries: that they obey the needs of the privileged social classes. What we need is science which gives the Earth a chance, independent from the interests of of multinationals and with a profesional ethic.

el desert de les palmesYet again, economic interests with the blessing of politicians destroy nature. This time it's in the Desert de les palmes, on the ill-treated coast of castelló, where they are building a road by force, that already goes one kilometer into the area where the judge advised that an ecological crime will happen. There is a group of people who is not happy to just sit back and is fighting i to stop the road build at the moment they are indefinitely camping at the sight. In adittion to the almost daily coverage by the massmedia , the group using other channels for the denounce, like on the free radio just created, a demonstrations, websites, email campaigns and at the university.

Firing as an exercise

During this summer,vast areas of Portugal and Extremadura were fired, and that's not all. This fires could be caused by the global warming, but it's also true that humans can be close to the causes. [ 1 + 2 ].

It's really possible that the global warming is produced by a model based in the combustion of fossil fuels, and meanwhile: the Prestige's disaster is not investigated, ships keep coming in unsecure conditions; The Kamxatka peninsula is in front of an ecological disaster. More struggle around the current energetic model: Mexico, energetic field for the USA, allegations against the aeolian park of Segalassos, the National Energetic Committee penalizes Iberdrola and Endesa. And local and punctual resistances carry on fighting against the current environmental model, or against its lack: plataform in defense of "la serra de la Renegà" + Capellades' city council says no to the waterproofing of the pond + ilegal wood is still arriving by Valencia's port + about the reports for the National Hydrological Plan + against GMOs [ 1 + 2 ].

Rally to demand that incidents such as those of the Prestige never happen again.
