dublin / anti-capitalism / event notice Wednesday November 19, 2003 12:45 by Socialist Worker   text 11 comments (last - tuesday december 02, 2003 14:39)
A new movement is challenging war and the power of capitalism. On 15th February 150,000 people marched against war in Dublin and 30,000 marched in Belfast. The New York Times had to admit that there are now “two superpowers on this planet- the United States and People Power”.
The bin tax has seen the beginning of mass resistance to the neo-liberal agenda. Thousands of workers have joined in the demonstartions and blocades. Similar resistance is being organised to oppose hospital closures, the sell-off of our public services and the attacks on free speech and public spaces.

The Marxism 2003 conference will bring together the activists and experience of the mass movements and campaigns for a weekend of debate and discussion. We’ve all got questions, together we’ve got answers. Together we can learn from the history of past struggles and build resistance to this new world order of war and privatisation

An essay by Stan Goff featured on Counterpunch in order to publicise his new book should make interesting reading for anyone that believes that the only people that are anti-war are granola-munching do-gooders. Stan Goff served in Vietnam and by his own account was completely embedded in two successive tiers of behaviour and belief-systems. read full story / add a comment

dublin / environment / event notice Tuesday November 18, 2003 16:18 by Matthieu
Liquid BioFuel from oilseed-rape is increasingly used to fuel diesel engines in Ireland. This sustainable, renewable biofuel saves us money, minimises our exposure to carbon tax, reduces our CO2 emissions and lessens our dependence on finite fossil fuels. And there are many other advantages. In this workshop, Douglas ffrench Mullen and John O'Mara (from Eilish Oils Ltd.) will explain the benefits of the production and use of Pure Plants Oil in Ireland and look at our options for using this fuel in our engines and vehicles.

WHEN ? Saturday, November 22nd from 11:00 to 13:00
Cost: 6 Euros

WHERE ? At Cultivate, the Sustainable Living Centre, 15 - 19 Essex Street West, Temple Bar, Dublin 8
