with. margaret why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy is a report on our. welcome back here's a recap of the main stories we're covering today on our t.v. human rights groups are shunning the u.k.'s program to torturing prisoners overseas and softer details surfaced about britain secret policy of using extreme measures if that i'm covered information considered of value of all of not. just the sun and go up moscow's international air show as global buyers and a flying fanatics taxi out for the best that aviation has to walk for billions of dollars of sales are expected for both military and civilian aircraft.

china tests its first aircraft carrier as it beefs up its military machine but it will take several years to fully equipped the vessel but beijing says its navy is already entered a new chapter. and as the syrian army reportedly fires of thousands about the government protesters across the country song syrians say they're glad to see tanks trying to get to their towns and they claim that security forces are protecting them from harm gatherings were terrorizing the residents. and now we tell you the story of the eco warriors who put themselves on the line to protect the world's environment the first part about special report is up next. yes so. that's the new mission here that's where exactly he is rated ok about anything.

for giving a warning to the oriental bluebird that they are violating the antarctic whale sanctuary here is used to comply with morning so we delivered a serious blow to them in order to pay for. their walk down the street see a child being abused and do nothing else stand there and watch whales die and hold a banner and do nothing. our oceans are dying we've already removed ninety percent of the fish from the oceans and we're continuing to exploit them i don't believe in protest to me protesting is submissive it's like please please please don't do that and they do it anyway you know it's a grovelling you know we shouldn't be protesting we should be intervening.

is a battle is a war what governments and big business have been doing is extremely destructive and it seems silly to me to think of it as not a war and something that we should fight back against i don't like setting things on fire i don't like sneaking around at night wearing a ski mask crawling underneath cars i don't like it i don't like sitting in a tree two hundred feet up in the air risking my life but i feel a necessity to do these things.

would be an eco warrior means to me is. doing all you can to defend the earth. it can be hard because a lot of people think you should never break the law or at least for political purposes to. visit the place. to just think that things have to change i want to take action instead awaiting passively otherwise change will happen if we reach a certain critical mass. and many of us act together we can change the world.

there's little if this is my food supply i want to point to the police corner i was up here but it's not for a few days when i know that we won so no we won't need it. we occupied the trees to prevent thoughts and fired from cutting them down since they

were clearing the forests or they could lay pipe to the coal plant they're building in the industrial part of town you'll see the food so it was agreed a protein and she just sounded to much of the corporation and to prepare protests in an urban area someplace that she was killed and i did. it kill i didn't find nicknames square zero. point. zero five. zero. one offered i've never dismantled a platform usually the cops do it when the effect is from the trees. but. it took three months for the courts to issue an injunction stopping work due to a normal lease in the permit granting process in normal e was that no one asked the people no hearings were held. like that i don't need a piece of paper saying what they did was illegal well and once it's done the paper

is useless i want to stop firms of this office and bust out that's. been taking direct action for about ten years to tell for the first it was street theater then i took action against consumerism taking billboards. well i've always been a client weren't so one day i decided to combine activism with climbing i like the way it works so i carried on i combine my hobby and my political commitment. this rail line goes to don and bore bad spots for ten kilometers you know mad and it's another twenty by road to the future nuclear waste

disposal site there the reason no temporary site trains loaded with nuclear waste is wrong on this line prong care. actually surprise is the key to a successful action. jump over the fence. but. i don't want to go. one two three four five six. let us on this seventy five seventy six seventy seven i call it some one to seven officers plus those over there there's

a crowd on the bridge that's about twenty five per person that's what they need to drive the nuclear train for even as you probably already know i remain classified and i never cut anything or destroy anything. i obviously don't have an on off switch to start all nuclear construction over night. although. they say i'm in custody we stand by tiny step we're making our dreams come true. to see the contacts since i finished saying today this is silly conta has sixteen sponsors. take us on of this or when us each one gives ten twenty thirty euros a month which adds up to three hundred fifty euro ices or sil has unusual talents

and cause them to work when it's a meeting of people who can give money because they approve of her actions and i do know what they can't do with themselves as for just thanks to this financial support sil can do her thing called and independently of each other and. sussan. and you'll see a. lot

of it looks don't just have to interact action only commit to face in the legal consequences so when i think over the rails for a few hours and they bring me to. trial for trespassing or whatever i can't say no that wasn't me i don't want to be seen none of the actions are for everybody to see and i do not hide. i've never done jail time but i've been fined under french and german law they are minor infractions they don't go on my criminal record yeah pacifism is a felony these are the cases i have funding i just filed according to time the trial is part of the action at the courthouse a lot of other things are going on there are demonstrations and there is a hung and people climb on the roof of the courthouse i'm often done and agent in action like that gives us more press. we talk to reporters about issues like

exporting nuclear waste of how bad g.m. always are when you reach a rate our grievance that i thought the politicians. were

surrounded by the forest up here. the green diamond resource company is the largest redwood landowner the largest single redwood landowner and they have about four hundred thirty thousand acres which is far bigger than any of the parks. their target age age they want to clear cut this forty five years old and now that's just pretty much tree farming these trees can grow to be thousands of years old so when you're just continually stunting it to a maximum of forty five or fifty years it's not a forest at all it's just a tree farm. live.

live. thank you. the forest here was cut down about five years ago that's the most the green damage the land looks like is really small scrubby trees and brush. and countering. the old the tree is i think it's about seventy we don't really recognize their right to claim ownership of this land when all they're doing is exploiting it.

first verse is the movement never part of. one of the main mottos of first is no compromise in the defense of mother earth. wanted to stop clear cutting we wanted to start using herbicides want them to not log on steep an unstable hillsides because a lot of erosion and landslides and we want them to not cut anymore old growth ever . we're here to protect the ecosystems that we rely on for survival and really that everyone on this earth relies on because these trees soak up huge amounts of carbon in the atmosphere and

if this forest was allowed to grow to its full potential it would greatly reduce the impacts of climate change because these trees get so huge and live for so long in iraq resistant that they story just massive in massive amounts of carbon dioxide . we got all the supplies you asked for i brought some hearts. from has been climbing. he's pretty. like an inch more than ninety feet. who is great to be ok. apples.

in one campaign in the one nine hundred ninety s. there was a tree sitter who. was unable to get food or water for three days because there were security guards posted under his tree and he had to drink his own. to make it for the last few days. i'm going to make chocolate cake. chocolate. coconut you know butter top and i. hope it will be great. but it's not really about like lifestyle choices it's about taking action against.

the corporations that are destroying the earth. robertie will long they're breaking the rules you know like they're breaking my heart on the way and like the spirit like it's like so much more heinous. trespassing illegal camping building a bridge to. the survival of these ecosystems rely on people of conscience taking a stand but since bush took office. the level of involvement with earth first and with civil disobedience to defend the forests has severely declined and they used to be hundreds if not thousands of people who would come to humboldt county yearly to defend the redwoods during logging season and now we're lucky to

have twenty. ok we're going to. do it it's just i was off it. was. something i don't. i. think that we have to remember that it's not just a game it's because of what they call the temper wars appear people have been seriously injured and killed and friends of mine have been chased through the woods and been chased off of steep hills and one of them had to be airlifted out of a remote area because he was just off a hill and just located his pelvis. are

you going. to go on my everglades. fulfill still or no nothing whatever my temperature. i. was shortly after i was involved. the police in humble county started pepper spraying helpless people who were locked to each other and then dipping q-tips into it and getting people's eyes with it really. want to. you know really this was just for trespassing refusing to leave nothing more.

and tory its environmental activist admits his part in torching trucks until eco terrorist attacks his sentence six and a half years in prison sitting through eleven days on a ledge of cotton spittle building in two thousand and nine. that. train hero who was poor michael score pity talked a lot about saving forests but he wouldn't admit he was among the arsonist who the following year portray short logging trucks near us to qaeda and trucks at portland's was silenced sand and gravel now he hands.

i was incarcerated for almost six years including the halfway house and home confinement time. i had done everything that i knew i could to help save those trees that you go creek and they still were trying to kill those trees i done everything that i knew i could buy what i didn't purchase by what i did with my own body and my actions by road blockades and tree sits and they still were pushing forward with that sale and so i thought a bit of desperation well i don't consider arson violent personally if someone renders an enum an object that is pillaging the planet and and in disrespecting our earth mother if they render that piece of equipment useless i don't consider that violent and unless i'm not advocating any one thing i just. encourage people to do something i have to send this form to

my probation officer every month to let him know what i've been doing for the month and that i'm not causing any problems. starting this past december so it's set for to go on for two and out more years i have been targeted by the f.b.i. and the u.s. government because of my political ideology and as a consequence the government has label me as a terrorist. arson is a serious crime but although it is certainly a far cry from nonviolent civil disobedience it is not terrorism it's property crime it's sabotage or it's arson but it is not terrorism. i there are a few ok. so it was present. in

the system itself it's all about money and we all need i think really do our best that we can to support people that are that are being carried by the government. that. time. not particular regard of climate change there's certainly an eco terrorist threat

because we've had incidences recently and in the west coast there was some some incidents of washington state i think it was where it would echo terrorism which may knock down some radio towers and the set fire to some buildings is not new i mean it's been going on for about twenty twenty five years and since it's been terrorist before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country there was a terrorist in this group it's not his country so it's been going on for a while now is it you know obviously have they killed people like al qaeda has not ok they haven't and we understand that and that's a good thing ok and it's a really good thing. in this country the patriot act is really messed up and obviously people doing even nonviolent activist work can be considered terrorists. and you know i don't want to be on the terrorist watch list just for speaking my my

opinions it is a battle it is a war what governments and big business have been doing is extremely destructive it's a fucking war like they are going to protect their interests their power and profits at all costs just need to work on ways where you know you don't get caught or something. please. mum limited. just sleep

just seemed. to. come up. in the. uk came up to cheer him up tom our team chancellor to the much air show.

all. that the. ship.
