2015: Building an against-climate summit (fr, it, pt) [machine
translation]
The masquerade of international negotiations convinces less, and mobilization for the
climate are growing. Hence the importance of preparing for a massive mobilization in Paris
in December 2015. ---- The mobilization to ecology, and climate in particular, have
continued to grow in recent years. The against-top at the COP15 in Copenhagen in 2009
(where governments have failed to reach an agreement) had collected one hundred thousand
people. ---- The international market for climate September 2014 brought together hundreds
of thousands of people around the world. And Lima, Peru, 400,000 people marched, or the
biggest event "green" in Latin America. ---- At the same time, the claims are radicalized
as the hypocrisy of governments can not be disguised, and that social and ecological
struggles overlap more and more. The most radical slogans and movements, such as the
"System change not climate change", seem to take precedence over the common
environmentalists who accommodate the system very well .
A statement from the 2013 World Social Forum and clearly identifies capitalism as
responsible for the ecological crisis states like the servants of capitalism and calls (no
great political proposal, certainly) to citizens' initiatives to take things in hand.
Hundreds of thousands of protesters
A new unit was also clear among NGOs, trade unions and social organizations involved in
international climate negotiations. Tired of the weight of lobbies and inaction of
governments, many of these structures left the negotiations at the Cop19 in 2013 in
Warsaw, and declare today, for example through the Climate Coalition 21, that n 'there is
nothing to expect negotiations and must rely on citizen mobilization.
There is therefore likely that the mobilization will be massive when Cop21 in Paris in
December 2015. It is expected to hundreds of thousands of people, in a climate of
against-top probably strained, especially given the attitude French government deal with
the social mobilizations and environmentalists.
21 Climate Coalition, which includes more than 80 NGOs, trade unions and French
organizations, has huge logistics to prepare the summit-cons, but its diversity prevents
refine your common political line. It is therefore likely that only calls a big event,
choosing to take further action due to each structure.
The Alternatiba network (participating in the coalition) will also be mobilized in 2015. A
bike ride will tour France from the spring, the Paris edition in September, and there is
talk of organizing an international Alternatiba during Cop. This very mobilizing dynamic
highlights concrete alternatives to change our way of life, but is not (yet?) A truly
coherent political pole.
What place for anti-capitalist?
Therefore missing in these mobilizations radical dynamics is not afraid of politics, which
could coordinate with other dynamic for events and organize its own initiatives at other
times, including to occupy public space. It is obvious that many radicals, including
international, will present at the Cop 21 and hold shares, but a space of coordination
could be useful to have more impact and strengthen the links between the different
currents and countries.
The dynamic social climate , which involves Alternative libertarian, would be this space,
but it will need to be greatly strengthened, especially by libertarians to afford to
actually exist.
