***** "But it's time to say enough. I have three children at home. They see news about more and more natural disasters. These disasters increase with fossil fuel consumption. Who is more dangerous, me, or climate change? Let me be clear - I am not against Russia. I want to protect the Arctic and the world, from climate change and to preserve it for future generations." Phil Ball, Arctic 30, Greenpeace

Greenpeace International

Phil is the 29th of the Arctic 30 to be granted bail. However, they all still face serious charges, and potentially years in jail. We can't help but think of Colin whose detention was extended for three more months.

ACT now to help bring the Arctic 30 home. They ALL deserve to be free and with their families: http://www.greenpeace.org/freethearctic30/?fbgpi22nov2

***** 28 yr old Jeremy Hammond - 10 Years Prison. Saint? Hero?

Tar Sands Blockade

28-year-old activist Jeremy Hammond was sentenced today to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to participating in the Anonymous hack into the computers of the private intelligence firm Stratfor.

Jeremy's co-defendants with LulzSec in other countries have received shorter sentences, the most being 2 years. Learn more about the CFAA law which is being used to put Jeremy in jail for 10 years, and also contributed to the death of activist Aaron Swartz: http://freejeremy.net/about-cfaa/

"The acts of civil disobedience and direct action that I am being sentenced for today are in line with the principles of community and equality that have guided my life. I hacked into dozens of high profile corporations and government institutions, understanding very clearly that what I was doing was against the law, and that my actions could land me back in federal prison. But I felt that I had an obligation to use my skills to expose and confront injustice—and to bring the truth to light.

Could I have achieved the same goals through legal means? I have tried everything from voting petitions to peaceful protest and have found that those in power do not want the truth to be exposed. When we speak truth to power we are ignored at best and brutally suppressed at worst. We are confronting a power structure that does not respect its own system of checks and balances, never mind the rights of it’s own citizens or the international community."

30 of our bravest humans are rotting in Russian Prison. For Creation's Sake, Sign, SHARE. Every day till they are out.

Greenpeace International added a video from November 13, 2013 at 9:20am to their timeline.

The Arctic ice we all depend on is disappearing fast. Oil companies like Shell and their partner Gazprom that caused the Arctic to melt in the first place are looking to profit from the disappearing ice.

On September 18, 28 activists stood up against Gazprom's plans to drill for oil in the fragile Arctic. Two journalists were there to document this peaceful action. Now they are all detained in Russia for standing up for what's right.

ACT now! SHARE this video widely and SIGN to demand the release of the Arctic 30: www.greenpeace.org/freethearctic30/?fbgpi13nov2
