 Found on IMC UK We already made a big banner, 12 meters long, demanding "ZONA CATASTROFICA, XA!" and we hanged it in Riazor (football stadium) taking advantage of the Depor-Juve match and all the foreign media there. I watched the recorded match at home and the panoramic shots of the crowd would stop exactly when reaching our banner. Other networks didn’t broadcast a single shot either and I can assure you, you could read it from the whole stadium. On the 1st of December there was a demonstration in Santiago to ask for "catastrophic zone". ON TV NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT". If a power popular movement doesn’t grow to support this it will soon be forgotten (even though some foreign papers are claming that this is the worst environmental disaster in the history of Europe) Full Account http://www.uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=48979&group=webcast |

Jump To Comment: 1More trouble on Europe's waters
Nearly 3,000 luxury cars went down with their ship in the English Channel after two vessels collided. The Norwegian-registered TRYcolor came off worst, along with a cargo of BMWs, Volvos and Saabs being delivered to Southampton on the southern coast of England. They never made it to their destination, after the car carrier came into contact with a container ship.
The TRYcolour was en route from Zeebrugge in Belgium when it ploughed into theother vessel off the Kent coast. This is one of busiest shipping lanes on the planet. The TRYcolour's owners have been warned they are ultimately responsible for the clean-up operation as well as the raising of the wreck. Bad weather however is hampering salvage efforts ; the collision itself happened amid thick fog. The mainly Filipino crew of the TRYcolour abandoned ship once their vessel developed difficulties, and all are safe and well. The TRYcolour was also carrying around 2,000 tons of fuel oil on board. A barrier has been putaround the wreck to try to keep any pollution to a minimum.
