 The Belem Ecosocialist Declaration
A group of activists has been working on this for some time now. It's too long to post here, but there is a call for signatures: Quote: The following Declaration was prepared by a committee elected for this purpose at the Paris Ecosocialist Conference of 2007 (Ian Angus, Joel Kovel, Michael Löwy), with the help of Danielle Follett. It will be distributed at the World Social Forum in Belem, Brazil, in January 2009. Read it.

 Re: The Belem Ecosocialist Declaration
This is weird - I never received this, and neither did a couple of other people here who definitely should have. (I know several of the signatories). Perhaps they are waiting to have it in French. None of them asked me to translate it either. One of the usual kerfuffles.

 Re: The Belem Ecosocialist Declaration
I got it directly from Ian Angus who is on the CD collective. It's only just been sent out so we'll all probably get several calls to sign over the next few weeks.
