RAISE YOUR VOICES AGAINST THE "DIRTY LITTLE SECRET" AT THE IUCN

Demand that the IUCN Take Meaningful Action!

U.S. MILITARY:  CLEAN UP YOUR TOXIC MESS!   END THE EXPANSION!  U.S. BASES OUT! 

Saturday, September 3
9am:   Rally at Old Stadium Park (at the corner of Isenberg & King)
           Short statements about Red Hill, Guam, Pagan, Pohakuloa, and more
9:45:   March to Convention Center
           (makai along Isenberg; ewa on Kapiolani to Convention Center)
10:15-noon:   Signholding in front of the Convention Center

Henoko - Pagan - Tinian - Guam - Pohakuloa - Makua - Barking Sands - Bikini - Kwajelein and Ebeye - Oyster Bay - Jeju - Red Hill....the list goes on and on

The U.S. Military has left a trail of destruction across the Pacific.  Toxic sites.  Bombed islands.  Nuclear contamination.  Destruction of reefs and harbors.  Poisoned water.  Displacement.  Prostitution and crime....the crimes are innumerable!

Today these crimes are INCREASING as the U.S. military expands operations in the Pacific.   Islands like Pagan and Tinian are being targeted for bombing and live fire ranges.  Pohakuloa has been expanded.  Base expansion in Guam.  Pristine reefs being dredged. 

The IUCN is the largest conservation group in the world but the military's destruction of the environment is no where on the agenda.  They talk about climate change without recognizing that the U.S. military is the largest institutional user of fossil fuels in the world!   They talk about  biodiversity without addressing the military's destruction of native habitat.  It's time for this dirty secret to be blown wide open -- and it's up to us to do it!   

The U.S. Military will have a big presence at the IUCN.  It will have exhibits touting its "green energy policy" and its programs to "protect biodiversity."  Don't let them get away with their monstrous lies!  

What About the Weather?
We'll proceed as planned if the weather is relatively clear or the rain is light.   If rain is very heavy we'll go directly to the Convention Center -- and will hold our signs there unless conditions absolutely prevent doing so.   We have many cloth or vinyl banners  that will withstand rain.
