Take Action – Ban fracking – sign petition
Sign the petition – say NO to , “Señor Petrolhead” Arias Cañete
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/canete_climate_pa_uk/?bfvltab&v=47178
In hours a Spanish oil ‘baron’ could be chosen as our European Commissioner on Climate. And only we can stop this shocking appointment!
It would be absurd to leave the leadership of Europe’s energy policy and global climate talks to a man who The Sunday Times has named “Señor Petrolhead”. But MEPs can reject the appointment and while some are threatening to accept him in return for political favours, with enough public backing, progressive MEPs could lead the charge to block him.

Fracking in Germany – an overview
Has Germany banned fracking? No, it hasn’t.
UPDATE FROM GERMANY
Fracking-in-Germany-brief-overview
This is a very useful overview about the latest developments re. proposals to introduce strict regulations for fracking in Germany. It is written by a well informed German campaigner. Because this briefing was drafted in July, it does not, however, include the news about the German Ministry of the Environment’s report published earlier this month. You can read about that on the Food & Water Watch website: http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/blogs/germanys-environment-agency-calls-for-an-end-to-fracking/ Continue reading
TAKE ACTION – Email MLA’s NOW!
TAKE ACTION NI
The recent actions which you may have taken part in via email have had a fantastic response. It’s not often that the Belfast Telegraph do a story about citizens emailing MLA’s. The planners on the Ballinlea issue even had to supply us with a different email address for the Facebook and Twitter campaign as our action blocked their account. We need to keep this going as since the start of this campaign there has never been a better opportunity for the NI assembly to put a halt to Fracking. The time to act is now and every voice matters.
Please send the following to the emails below. Continue reading

Please Take Action Before Tomorrow Thurs. 10th April.

This Friday is the deadline for submissions to the Renewable Energy Export and Development Policy. This is another plan based on Irelands National Strategy for Renewable Energy 2012-2020.
