STREET PARTY AND ENSUING DIRECT ACTION AGAINST PEAT EXTRACTION
monday 25th - thursday 28th sees four days of direct action at Hatfield Moor in Doncaster.
While multinational Scotts have been paid off to get out of 2 other peat bogs, they have been given two more years to mine Hatfield Moor. We have been taking regular action of different sorts at Hatfield over the last year. Now everything we can do to slow them down is going to have an actual effect in real terms of saving essential diverse habitat. We are targetting them in the run up to Easter, which is the busiest time of year for the peat industry.
At Hatfield Moor there is going to be an ACTION CAMP with places to stay, vegan
food available and evening entertainment. There will also be direct action training at the site, people to talk to about what's going on, ideas for autonomous actions and some equipment.
Call the number or check the website on Sunday 24th March to find out where we are.
FOR THE SITE WE NEED - the usual tools, food, warm things
