Dear people,<\/p>\n

This year alone we already\u00a0had 20 information evenings, 6 action conferences and 2 action trainings. And that won\u2019t be all: there will be even more action trainings and the 11\u00a0workgroups are very busy preparing\u00a0the action camp. Because in less than two months it\u2019s starting!<\/div>\n

In this newsletter you can read about the past action conference in Groningen, the \u2018 Limity Jitse Me\u2019 action against brown coal in the Czech Republic and news updates concerning the\u00a0gas extraction and upcoming action trainings.<\/div>\n

1. RECAP OF THE ACTION CONFERENCE & THE ACTION CONSENSUS\u00a0<\/b>
One week ago, the 6th action conference took place, the last one before the action in August. And this time it lasted even two days! On Saturday we discussed the action\u00a0consensus. An important issue was the meaning of the consensus for the participants of the action. We decided to define the consensus as “a collective framework that is undertaken by all participants of the Code Rood action in Groningen at the end of August\u00a02018”. There was also a very good discussion about either using the word \u2018non-violent\u2019 or not. There were\u00a0clear points of views for both positions. In the end we reached the consensus that the solution is to explain as clear as possible what we are going to do, but that it is also useful to further discuss\u00a0this topic, for example during the action camp.<\/div>\n

You\u00a0can read the action consensus on the website now!<\/a><\/div>\n

We continued on Sunday. Together we made an overview of all the things that already have been arranged, as well as everything still to be done. That day the workgroup Aesthetics got\u00a0a kick start with a very fruitful collective brainstorm session about activities for- and the furnishing of the sit blockade. And this day, July 1st, was also the day that the contract of the EMO coal\u00a0terminal in Rotterdam got elongated. Therefore we let the elderman of Rotterdam and the port sector\u00a0know\u00a0that another 25 years of climate destruction is\u00a0unacceptable<\/a>.<\/div>\n

2.\u00a0 PROGRAM ON THE ACTION CAMP<\/b>
Very soon the program of the action camp will be announced. Apart from action trainings, briefings and other preparations for the action there will be 16 different parts. You can think of\u00a0workshops, panel discussions, all kind of information about the natural gas extraction in Groningen, the struggles concerned with it and the beauty of climate action that is organised from\u00a0the bottom up.

3. LIMITY JITSME ME\u00a0<\/b>
While many of the Code Rood group attended the action conference in Groningen last weekend, more than 100 people were in the Bilina brown coal mine in the north of the Czech\u00a0Republic, to disturb the business as usual of the fossil industry, with nothing more than their own bodies and determined pleasure. In total around 400 people joined the action and\u00a0approximately 30-40 of them got to the bottom of the mine. In this way the mine came to standstill.\u00a0You can read a nice report here<\/a>.\u00a0

Limity jitse me organized last year already such an action. This year the amount of participants more than doubled. We would love to see that also with Code Rood! It shows that we are\u00a0part of\u00a0a\u00a0growing movement<\/a>.\u00a0More and more people are getting aware of the urge to get into action. Therefore we\u00a0supported<\/a>\u00a0the action of Limity Jitsme Me\u00a0in Groningen.

4. SHELL, EXXON, DE NAM AND THE DELAYED REINFORCEMENTS\u00a0<\/b>
One month ago\u00a0minister Wiebes\u00a0stopped the reinforcements\u00a0of 1600 dwellings<\/a>\u00a0that got unsafe because of the earthquakes. But last week the commity of Mines announced that the\u00a0unsafe houses have to be reinforced as soon as possible. Again responsibility is being denied while the people of Groningen live now in unsafety.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And in the meantime the\u00a0mining legislation\u00a0\u00a0has been adjusted in a way that the companies that getting the gas out of the ground are less responsible for the damage they cause. How is\u00a0that possible? It is no surprise anymore that the powers of the fossil industries and the government are enlaced for years.

5.\u00a0 JOIN AN ACTION TRAINING!\u00a0<\/b>
There is no better way\u00a0\u00a0to prepare for a mass civil disobedience action than to join one of the action training sessions! You not only get a lot of information about- and skills in civil\u00a0disobedience, but you also meet a lot of other people interested in joining the action, or, if you already have experience in action, you can refresh your knowledge and share your\u00a0experiences with others!
\u00a0
Sign in for the action training on\u00a0July 13th in Nijmegen<\/a>,\u00a0August 18th\u00a0in Amsterdam<\/a>\u00a0or on\u00a0August 25th\u00a0in the action camp in Groningen<\/a>!\u00a0

6. DONATE!\u00a0<\/b>
Do you want to help to make the action and the camp a big success this summer? You can see\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0what stuff we still need.\u00a0And please tell the people around you about Code Rood\u00a0and how they can support us. We can still use your donation very well.\u00a0You can transfer money to bank account\u00a0NL55 TRIO 0388 6023 80 in the name of \u2018Steungroep NVDA\u2019.
