what is this sierra club shenanigans?

the culture of environmental politics gone too far perhaps

just wondering if anyone has been following the recent sierra club discourse, or is involved with the canadian end of the group...some slivers in the globe and mail today.

interesting slide from systems thinking about carrying capacity and limiting the demand on a 'provisionary' assembly (which is not provisionary but seems to be based how most of us plunderers situate it environmentally) to regulating migration and global flows based on political and cultural objectives.

i don't deny our ridiculous commodified cultural practices have telescoped a range of problems in relation to supposedly 'external' environmental problems, and i think there is some cause for thinking about the poltical culture and the environmental culture as integrated. yet, this smells like a hijacking to me, disguised as 'sound, realistic ecological assessment'. any thoughts would be great. this stuff's all a bit tangled for me (like it is going to get any more untangled...)

here are some links:

CMAQ: Vie associative


Quebec City collective: no longer exist.

Get involved !

 

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
