Asia Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate (APP-CDC)

Subject: [resistance] Condoleeza Rice coming to Adelaide
Condoleeza Rice and possibly Donald Rumsfeld in Adelaide
Yes You read it right, Condoleeza Rice will be in Adelaide in November. Possibly Donald Rumsfeld too!
The occasion? The inaugural meeting for the "Asia Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate" (APP-CDC). The six nation group of green house polluters is really a club of the two worst environmental vandals in the world (Australia and the USA) with 4 lesser polluters (China, India, South Korea and Taiwan) to rip up the Kyoto protocol.
Australia in recent years has lead the charge to junk the Kyoto protocol of reducing greenhouse emissions and the US has followed the lead of Australian big polluters. The APP-CDC proposes no limitation on greenhouse pollution, just the vague promise to introduce environmentally friendly technology to the third world but no targets or enforceability for this. APP-CDC is really just a smoke-screen or a stunt to cover up Australia and US corporate and environmental vandalism that is wrecking our planet and killing its people.
It is now universally recognised that the greenhouse effect is a deadly serious and worsening environmental disaster. According to the most comprehensive survey ever carried out on global warming (published in The Australian earlier this year), earth's temperatures are changing much faster than expected. The survey warned London could be under water within 50 years. The future of the world's island nations and agricultural societies will be most dramatically affected. While the rich will always be able to buy up the best land, and make money from any crisis, environmental vandalism is destroying the planet and majority of the people.
The powers that be have picked Adelaide hoping that we are small and passive enough to offer no resistance to there meeting. The polluters want to make this an international media coup for their irresponsible head in the sand approach to out of control climate change. We need to make this an international public relations disaster for them! The challenge is on. if there was ever a time to get active it is now.
Top 6 reasons to make make Rice's visit a PR disaster
1. Green House effect is a dangerous runaway environmental disaster. The corporate poulluters are simply ignoring this fact.
2. Condoleeza Rice was the national security adviser during the Iraq invasion that has lead to death of 100 000 Iraqi civilians in the name of ridding the world of Sadam Hussien's fictional "weapons of mass destruction".
3. Howard will be there, Downer will be there, all the Australian government big wigs willl be trying to soak up some of the "glory" while the whole world will be watching on the international media. We can show the world what we really think.
4. The occupation of Iraq is losing its grip. The opposition to US imperialism in Iraq and all around the world, especially in Latin America, is gaining strength. a show of popular opposition to this meeting of the imperialists in their heartland, the safe tranquil Adelaide, will encourage international Resistance and struggle.
5. This will be the biggest political event for Adelaide since the invasion of Iraq. The chance to trigger greater inviolvement in struggle against our own bankrupt government is massive.
6. There will be a national convergance on Adelaide for the summit with people from accross the country coming to join the protest.
7. We have a world to win. We have nothing to lose. The power lies with the majority of people. We must fight for new world based on humn need not corporate greed.
NOWAR Adelaide (the group that organised the massive demonstrations against the invasion of Iraq) has called for action against Rice's visit. NOWAR has innitiated coalition , open to all groups and individuals who would like to help organise the protest.
