These days G is a busy man. Meeting him at his house, I see that he has converted his bedroom into a pseudo-office, full of computers and court documents, which he is currently transferring onto his newly launched website. He tells me that he has been working long hours recently on the website, but it seems clear that his enthusiasm and energy haven’t tired. G is a man with a mission and seems about ready to pick up where he left off in his own personal campaign for justice against the state and county law makers of California. read full story / add a comment

The European Commission has lodged proceedings against Ireland with the European Court of Justice for its failure to assess and control unauthorised quarrying and similar activities. The proceedings follow a Letter of Formal Notice and a Reasoned Opinion sent by the Commission to Ireland over the past three years. The BBC’s Countryfile programme tomorrow is highlighting the importance of maintaining limestone pavement as a unique natural habitat. Speaking in an interview from the Burren on the programme, Friends of the Irish Environment’s Tony Lowes explained that ‘The European Commission has just entered a case against Ireland in the European Court of Justice for its failure to control quarrying. The developers are actually quarrying and then looking for permission and of course this is the wrong way, you're supposed to assess your impact before you start." read full story / add a comment

Is it time as a nation we grew up and realised that we as the electorate are the ones responsible for the problems in society we see today? read full story / add a comment

Protest against the Michelle Bachelet "capitalist approved socialist regime" in Chile have been underway for weeks now. The focus being the proposed educational system reforms which will effect mostly secondary level students. Those same students have started to take to the streets, where indeed their future leadership will meet. As has been noted and made apparant, we may no longer look to the recruitment human resources of corporations or even the three dismal university faculties of law, economics and journalism for the qualities which are required to bring our planetary inter-connected peoples to a sustainable and just future.
