with more on these stories and other developments in the enough not the mean time the great green threats we take a look at the radical environmentalist groups that will go to any length to support their cause that's not special report eco warriors. yes. that's the key here that's where exactly he is rated ok right. we're giving a warning to the oriental liberty that they are violating the party will sanctuary refused to comply with the morning so we delivered a serious blow to the order to pay for. it walk down

the street see a child being abused and do nothing you don't 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. but being 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 not for political purposes. things have to change i want to take action instead of waiting passively otherwise

change won't happen but if we reach a certain critical mass. and many of us act together we can change the world.

this is my food supply i want to point out if the police corner i was up here it's not for a few days you might only have one so no won't need it. on the computer. we occupied the trees to prevent bottom child from cutting them down. they were clearing the forest so they could lay pipe to the coal plant their building in the industrial part of tone you'll see the thing so it was agreed appreciate it just some potentially corporation and to bring protests to an urban area simple as that will kill that idea. kill it's my nickname squirrel. i'm. one of i've never dismantled

a platform usually the cops do it when the effect is from the trees. it took three months for the courts to issue an injunction stopping work due to a normal lease in the permit granting process in normally was that no one asked the people no hearings were held to the letter but i don't need a piece of paper saying what they did was illegal once it's done the paper is useless i want to stop this it does open us out that's. been taking direct action for about ten years. at 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 food and 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 in oregon bad spots fifteen kilometers he don't matter then into another twenty by road to the future nuclear waste disposal science fair for us the reason no a temporary site trains loaded with nuclear waste is wrong on this line. felon 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 seven. let us on this seventy five seventy six seventy seven icon some of the seven officers plus those over there i don't know about is a crowd on the bridge but it's about twenty five per person that's what they need to draw the nuclear train for. as you probably already know i remain passive and ever cut anything or destroy anything. i obviously don't have an on off switch to stop all nuclear construction overnight to feel that although. they say i'm in custody the standby time you stop where

makes you know dreams come true. this year the contacts so tied to this is silly conta has sixteen sponsors. out on a fifty or one at each one gives ten twenty thirty euros a month which adds up to three hundred and fifty year olds. cecile has unusual talents and pushes them to work it's a meeting of people who can give money because they approve of her actions some of you know what they can't do with themselves thanks to this financial support sil can do her thing call millie and independently of each other and.

sussan. and. little food like stones effect in direct action. to face in the legal consequences so when i hang 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 not if i don't want to be seen a lot of my actions are for everybody to see i do not hide. that i've never done jail time that i've been fined under french and german law they are minor

infractions they don't go on my criminal record. massive prison one is a felony these are the cases i have just wild 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 people climb on the roof of the courthouse while i'm off to. stage an action like that gives us more press. we talk to reporters about issues like exporting nuclear waste. where you each to rate our grievances that have us all apologise for say.

we're surrounded by the forest up here. the green dam and 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.

and their target age their age they want to clear cut is forty five years old and you know 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. thank you.

the forest here was cut down about five years ago that's what most a green dams land looks like is really small scrubby trees and brush. countering it's. the see all 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. was. a. first person of the movement they were part of. one of the main mottos of earth first is no compromise in the defense of mother earth. want them

to stop clear cutting we want them to stop using herbicides want them to not log on steep an unstable hillsides where they cause a lot of erosion and landslides and we want them to not cut anymore or growth ever . just for. we're here to protect the ecosystems that we rely on in her survival and really that everyone on this earth relies on because these trees soak up huge amounts of carbon or 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 lived for so long in iraq resistant that they stored just massive in massive amounts of carbon dioxide. we got all the supplies you asked for i brought some hot sauce.

farmers been clapping. and he's pretty. you go up like an inch more than ninety feet up. who is great to be out here. apples. when i feel burning. in cuba. 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 pissed. to make it for the last few days.

i'm going to make chocolate cake with chocolate. and coke and 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. or breaking the law they're breaking the rule you know by breaking the law of the heart and the land and the spirit like it's like so much more heinous and trespassing illegal camping building a barrier 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 there 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. if you wish the other would. do would be others just i. was. i. we have to remember that it's not just a game because and what they called the timber 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 chased off a hill and dislocated his pelvis. are you going. to go on. everybody. go kill or no nothing but why ever. 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 indebting people's eyes with it didn't really. want to know that i have you know. this was just for trespassing and refusing to leave nothing more. and a tory its environmental activist admits his part in torching trucks and two eco terrorist attacks his sentence six and a half years in prison sitting for a live in days on a ledge acquittance federal building in two thousand and twelve. pack. train hero who was born michael score pity talked a lot about saving forests but he wouldn't admit he was among the arsonist who the following year. logging trucks neuros to keda and trucks at portland's ross island

sand and gravel men 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. 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 violence nonetheless 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 just to let him know what i've been doing for the month and 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 labeled 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. they're going to feel that i. was present. in the system is just all things solved and. we all need to live here and you are best to support people that are that are.

not particular regard of climate change there's certainly an eco terrorist threat because we've had incidences recently in the west coast there was some incidents in washington state i think it was where with eco terrorism which they knock down some radio towers or they set fire to some buildings it is not new i mean it's been going on for about twenty twenty five years and censors been eco terrorist before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country there was a terrorist and this goes through this country so it's been going on for a while now is it you know obviously have they killed people like al qaeda has no

ok they haven't and we understand that and that's a good thing ok that'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're 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.
