“…the climate movement needs to have one hell of a comeback.”
--Naomi Klein
This summer North America saw an inspiring amount of grass-roots
organizing against fossil fuel extraction. From growing resistance to
hydro-fracking for natural gas, to the derailing of the Keystone XL
pipeline project, to the continued disruption of mountaintop removal sites
in Appalachia, folks are waking up to the threat posed by dirty, dangerous
fossil fuel extraction and working to build alternatives.
At this crucial moment, we would like to invite your community to be part
of this dialogue. This fall, the Beehive Design Collective and Rising Tide
North America will be touring through the Southwest offering an
interactive, multi-media presentation that celebrates fossil fuel
resistance from around North America. We hope to share the stories we have
heard in our travels and learn more about the struggles against energy
extraction in this region and weave them into this growing tapestry of
resistance!
The Beehive is a wildly motivated all-volunteer, art-activist collective
that has gained international attention and participation for its
collaboratively produced graphics campaigns. (
