Fossil Fools Day

Roll up, roll up! The climate circus is in town.
Confronted with melting ice caps, unprecedented species extinction,
droughts and extreme weather, climate change threatens our very
survival. The fools at the head of the fossil fuel empire continue to
plunder the earth, with the governments as willing court jesters at
their side.

They would have us believe that we can escape
climate change with techno-fixes, market mechanisms and offset schemes
- all technocratic acrobatics that distract us from the truth: the only
real solution to climate change is to keep fossil fuels in the ground.

On April 1st, 2008, we're going to turn the tables and show them who the real fools are.

Target a local fossil fool - See the clowns investing in coal - The carbon
offset contortionist or the oily strong man? and join with thousands
around the world in taking one step closer to dismantling the fossil
fuel industry. Find a fossil fool in your community and pull a prank
that packs a punch.
