Shell continues to pollute the North Sea
It seems absurd, but the oil company Shell, continues to pollute without anyone to take appropriate action. After the pollution of the Niger Delta oil company is continuing to pollute half the world regardless of the damage, just a month ago in Alaska had an accident involving the kulluk platform and now it's incredibly ennessimo the environmental disaster. According to an investigation by the Department of Energy and Climate Change in the last 10 months has resulted in well-Shell 430 oil spills in the North Sea. All this because of the violent drilling activities that Shell has intensified in this period, needless to say that these criminal activities are exterminating the marine ecosystem already weakened intesiva practiced their fishing in the North Sea. Shell respond to these accusations claiming that precautions be taken to avoid damage, in fact, the Anglo-Dutch oil company, it would try to use less invasive methods for boring. However, the problem remains as governments with state subsidies entice companies like Shell to increase the oil business, but had not started the green revolution? According to the WWF to cut all oil companies subsidies would be the only way to stop these dangerous criminal activities, also with the same gesture will encourage the development of more sustainable energy policies. In short, the bad example from above, the government once again proved'' not interested'' in this worrying environmental problem.
MUOS: The military force locks are held by women and children
Protests in the district of elm in Niscemi (CL), hundreds of nonviolent activists peacefully prevent access to the means the U.S. military. Have not served the assurances of the president of the region Crocetta to block the advance of the Americans, the Sicilian governor issued an order revoking the works for the construction of Muos that Americans refuse to comply. Just yesterday, the U.S. base in Sigonella rejected the letter of revocation of the region Sicily, the official responsible for the delivery has been left outside the gates of the military entrance. Just a few days ago, the Italian police in riot gear had hit the demonstrators who were lying on the ground to protest against the installation of Muos. Among them women and children who have suffered injuries to his head and legs. As usual when it comes to economic interests, democracy and the right to health are not protected. I find it disgusting that Americans are using whatever legal means and not to force people to live in Sicily with an installation that supports the war, the U.S. is an example of those who preach good and bad ... but they were scratching against terrorism? Meanwhile, this morning at the gates of the construction site for the Muos, a convoy of U.S. military attempted to overcome the blocks. As always found to block the activists, fortunately this time have been rejected and no one has been hurt. For how long the resistance of activists?
