Why is it illegal to burn a Koran but fine for pro-Hamas protesters to destroy a Union Flag? Why is one a "public order offence" and the other not? Because in two-tier Britain the one rule is that you can't upset Muslims.

dublin / environment / event notice Monday June 20, 2005 19:20 by Martin Giannini
Australian David Holgrem is best known as the co-originator with Bill Mollison of the permaculture concept.

For over 25 years permaculture has provided a coherent design framework for a broad range of empowering strategies for living with less and less energy. While the understanding and adoption of these strategies has been slow in an era of abundant energy, the emerging era of energy descent will make many radical permaculture solutions natural and obvious.

As well as constant involvement in the practical side of permaculture, David is passionate about the philosophical and conceptual foundations for sustainability that are highlighted in his latest book, Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability. In this lecture David will provide a refreshing and unorthodox approach to the environmental issues of our time. read full story / add a comment

If one as an investigative journalist wants to stay alive, one way to do it is 'serving' the explosive information in portions. First fifty%, then 25, and the last 25% is a kind of 'life guard': used until a 'case of emergency' erupts, like when the journalist or whistleblower is "suicided". read full story / add a comment
