russia questions the legality of viktor boots trial after a new york jury found the businessmen are guilty of the international arms trafficking he faces which means twenty five years to life sentence in jail but is a friend say they plan and the people. i'm mad at mission to mars came one step closer to reality this week as russia's an ambitious experiment round trip to the red planet came to an end in moscow the six man who successfully called for the five hundred twenty days in isolation. and next on our special report into the modern day robin hoods all seemingly stop at nothing to protect mother earth the f.b.i. ranks that was one of the greatest threats to national security in the united states after al qaeda we take you behind the eco warrior front line.

yes so maybe something that's new here that's where exactly is right ok about right . for giving a warning to the oriental blooper that they are violating the antarctic will sanctuary refused to comply with warning so be delivered a serious blow to them or to feed. the 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 this 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. but 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 joint you know 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 to. visit. to discuss confess things have to change i'm going 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.

there's a little bit this is my food supply oh well what if the police corner us up here it's not for a few days my loved one so no won't need it. no no. we

occupy victories to propound bottom child from cutting them down but since they were clearing the forest so they could lay pipe that's all to the coal plant they're building in the industrial part of town you'll see the thing so it was agreed the protein and t. just some the taj the corporation and supreme protestant urban area with us that you all killed and i did. it kill i don't play nicknames square don't. talk. several of the time never dismantle a platform usually the cops do it when the effect is from the trees. to three months for the courts to issue an injunction stopping work due to and normally as in the permit granting process in normally was that no one asked the

people no hearings were held and why but i don't need a piece of paper saying what they did was illegal and once it's done the paper is useless i want to stop violence of this office and. we're in the act i've been taking direct action for about ten years. at first it was street theater then i took action against in summer isn't taking billboards. well always being a climber and 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 who are bad spots of ten

kilometers you don't matter it's another twenty by rote to the future nuclear waste disposal site where. a temporary site trains loaded with nuclear waste is wrong on this line. well actually surprise is the key to a successful action. jump over the fans. i don't want to go. one two three four five six. let us on this seventy five seventy six someone just sort of an icon some of the

seven officers plus those over there and i don't know that there's a crowd on the bridge but it's about trying to five per person that's what they need to drive the nuclear train for even as you probably already know i remain passive and never cut anything or destroy anything. i obviously don't have an on off switch to start all nuclear construction over night this young although. they say i'm going custody he stand by tiny step we're making our dreams come true. to see the conflicts sometimes they're just saying this is silly contra has sixteen sponsors. got on offense to show you one of each one gives ten twenty thirty euros

a month which adds up to three hundred and fifty year old. says still has unusual talents and cause them to work it's a meeting of people who can give money because they approve of her actions and i did or they can't do it themselves from this thanks to this financial support sil can do her thing calmly and independently of each other and. sussan. and.

part of it works on defects in direct action only commit to face in the legal consequences so when i think over the rails for a few hours a 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. that i've never done jail time but i've been fined what under french and german law they are minor infractions they don't go on my criminal record yeah pass a prison one is a felony these are the cases i have 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 while i'm often down that.

stage an inaction like that keeps as more press by law we talk to reporters about issues like exporting nuclear waste of how bad g.m. always are. our grievance and the last i talk about of. them.

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 bout four hundred thirty thousand acres which is far bigger than any of the parks. their target age their 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. thank you. the first year was cut down about five years ago that's what mostly green dams land looks like is really small scrubby trees and brush. and i can't. 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. first is the movement never part of. one of the main mottos of earth first is no compromise in the defense of mother earth. i want them to stop clear cutting we want them to start using herbicides we want them to not log on stephen unstable hillsides where they cause a lot of erosion and landslides and we want them to not go any more or growth ever . right here to protect

the ecosystems that we rely on to preserve viable and really that everyone on this earth relies on because these trees soak up a huge amounts of carbon at 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 there 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. farmer has been clad and. he's pretty. like an inchworm. who agreed to be. 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. with 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 long they're breaking the rules you know like they're breaking my heart on the one hand and like the spirit like it's like so much more heinous and trespassing illegal camping good thing 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 the 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 had come to county merely to defend the redwoods during logging season and now we're lucky to have twenty. ok we'll see other ways. to do it is just i. was. something i would have. i. think we have to remember that it's not just a game it's because and what they called the chembur 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 dislocated his pelvis. are

you going to. lose all my everglade. fulfill still or no i cut him why ever break. i i. was. doing there's the was there. was shortly after i was involved. in policing humboldt 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 really.

want to. you know. this was just for trespassing refusing to leave nothing more. and 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 eleven days on a ledge of portland's federal 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. logging trucks near us to qaeda and truck support ins rosslyn sand and gravel now he hands.

i was incarcerated for almost six years including a halfway house and home confinement time. i had done everything that i knew i could to help save those trees that you can create and they still were trying to kill those trees i've 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 in 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. this respecting our earth mother if they render that piece of equipment useless i don't consider that violent then the less 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 is labeled me as a terrorist and. 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

don't write feel. so cause i was present. in the system it's just all things it's all about money and we all use you might think it was your best that we can support people that are that are being targeted 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 in washington state i think it was we had with eco terrorism which they knocked on some radio towers of they set fire to some buildings is not new i mean it's been going on for about twenty twenty five years and science has been eco terrorist before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country there was a terrorist in the school system of this country so it's been going on for a while now is it you know obviously i think killed people like al qaeda has not. happened 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 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 you know.

feel. landless. to sleep.

to feel. the sun. it. elite. be a. bit .
