Thursday, August 16, 2012 at 8:00 PM AT L.A. Eco-Village

YASTEL YAMADA, FOUNDER OF THE SKILLED VETERANS CORPS FOR FUKUSHIMA,
GIVES A TALK ON THE CURRENT CRISIS IN FUKUSHIMA AND THE CHALLENGES
TO US ALL.

The Skilled Veterans Corps are skilled elderly people prepared
to give their lives to the clean-up effort.

Yastel and his associate "Tak" Okamoto are in the U.S. to promote this
controversial, yet courageous proposal. Essentially, the SVCF is
calling on the Japanese government and the Tokyo Energy Power Company
(TEPCO), owners of the dangerously crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear
power plant, to permit retired, senior citizens with technical
experience and know-how to be allowed immediately to contribute to the
clean-up efforts at the plant, effectively putting their lives on the
front lines in the battle to contain this unfolding disaster.

In addition, the distinguished gentlemen from the SVCF are calling for
the TEPCO to relinquish its leadership role in the crisis clean-up and
turn the project over to an "International Inspection Team" with a
"centralized and unified Project Management". The members of the SVCF
argue that the crisis at the Fukushima nuclear power plant is too great
for one corporation, with their fiduciary responsibilities to their
shareholders, to protect the nation and the world from the real and
potential dangers.

With Southern California Edison still planning to re-open San Onefre,
we still have much work to do to prevent such a potentially disastrous
energy direction.

Reservations required:  crsp <at> igc.org or 213/738-1254 (space limited)

Donations requested (no one turned away for lack of funds)

NEWS FROM LA ECO-VILLAGE
It's official!  On July 10th, 2012, the limited equity 
housing co-op, Urban Soil-Tierra Urbana, became the owner 
of the two buildings in LAEV known as the Bimini Apartments
(a 37 unit building) and the adjacent Bimini Terrace (an
8 unit building).  The Beverly-Vermont Community
Land Trust officially received the land underneath these
two buildings:  Another milestone in the on-going development
of the Los Angeles Eco-Village.  

Watch for forums and workshops next year about how we did it, 
and how we can help other neighborhoods create permanently 
affordable ecologically sensitive housing.

Institute of Venezuela and is a senior associate of the Robert Schalkenbach

understanding root causes of poverty and war.
Wendell Fitzgerald holds a law degree and for several years worked inside a

with new paradigm economics. He currently serves as President of the Henry

securing basic needs for all, including the need for fulfillment of what

Hi Folks,

The Gaia Home event at Rio+20 was a huge success for GEN, Gaia Education and
the Brazilian network that organized it. Especially Terra Una, who are an
impressive group of can-do young activists grounded in the arts, ecology and
sustainability education.

I am forwarding the report they sent out to their crowdfunding contributors.
It is in Portuguese, but a translation app should give you the broad strokes
of its contents. Otherwise the pictures tell the story rather well.

Thanks for your support and participation in this ground braking event.

Gio

Caso não seja possível, podemos enviá-la por correio. Pedimos, contudo, que
os custos de envio sejam arcados por você  Os benfeitores de Belo
Horizonte podem responder esta mensagem solicitando que a equipe do Educação
Gaia que estará na cidade em agosto leve a sua caneca.


Receba a nossa gratidão por sua generosidade e confiança no trabalho.


Acreditamos que o Gaia Home cumpriu seu objetivo de ser um ponto de
integração entre redes comunitárias, servindo de núcleo de intercâmbio de
tecnologias e troca de saberes, expandindo o alcance dos princípios e
valores da sustentabilidade difundidos pelo programa Educação Gaia através
de atividades junto ao público geral: vivências, oficinas, workshops,

aberta e gratuita.


Sigamos juntos neste caminho de transformação na direção de modos de vida
sadios em uma cultura de paz.

muitas lições. Com esta mensagem trazemos nosso pedido de compreensão pela
certa demora em encaminhar a questão das recompensas para os benfeitores,
bem como fazer o acerto com os nossos credores que emprestaram dinheiro
