The Valve Turner (Shut It Down) action halted the entire flow of tar sands from Canada into the U.S., the equivalent of 15% of U.S. daily oil production.  They phoned the pipeline operators before the action, safely employed the emergency shut-off valves of the pipelines, and no person was injured.

Please consider hosting a screening of this NEW documentary?

"The Reluctant Radical features activist Ken Ward as he confronts his fears and puts himself in the direct path of the fossil fuel industry to combat climate change. Ken breaks the law as a last resort and with great trepidation, to fulfill what he sees as his personal obligation to future generations. After twenty years leading environmental organizations, Ken becomes increasingly alarmed by both the scientific evidence of climate change and the repercussions for civilization as we know it. Ken’s pushes for a crisis level response and when his efforts fail, he embraces direct action civil disobedience as the most effective political tool to deal with catastrophic circumstances."

This looks like an interesting and important film. It would be good to make it available for people to see.
