A letter from our rising tide friends:
Hi climate/human rights groups in Vermont (and the Northeast),
Wow! Would you look at those headlines? What an exciting day of action for a just livable planet yesterday in Vermont and New York. Check out the Rising Tide Vermont Facebook page for photos and follow the links below for some of the media coverage of the actions.
And remember - the action isn't over until everyone is out of court/jail, so please donate to the legal fund (http://bit.ly/1GjgsNv) if you can.
Democracy Now "9 Arrested in Anti-Fracking Actions in Vermont, New York"
Burlington Free Press - "Fossil-fuel Protests Span Champlain Valley"
Plattsburgh Press Republican - "Keep it in the Ground" fairly extensive article focused on the oil trains action -
New England Cable News "Activists Halt Construction, Block Truck, Line Railroad Track, in Fossil Fuel Protests"
WPTZ- "9 Arrested in Separate Protests Against Transporting Crude Oil"
VTDigger - "Activist Groups Protest Transport of Fracked Gas"
Please pass this on to any networks who might be inspired by this coordinated and escalated day of resistance!
Onwards,
Anna Rose for the media team
