“There are key differences between our action to defend country
and that of the profit-driven fracking companies: parliament’s grass will grow back, but the damage fracking will herald for communities, country and our climate will last for generations.”

"Folks | I know I have written to many of you before, excuse my bombardment and please delete if of no interest. If you have already subscribed, many thanks indeed! I am making a concerted effort to promote the new Arena quarterly publication. The Arena project was established in Melbourne in 1963. It has had a long tradition of promoting progressive broad left ideas including on issues around sustainability, the looming climate crisis, urban/rural relations, conservation, resource depletion, de-consumption and the future of capitalism. In 2020 we reconfigured our publications program, combining Arena Magazine and Arena Journal into a quarterly Arena and simultaneously launching Arena Online published as an electronic weekly https://arena.org.au/category/arena-online/. (Please check out Arena Online.) The timing of the launch has had its challenges with the Covid pandemic and limitations on ability to distribute to bookshops, hence my sustained subscription drive efforts. I attach a complimentary PDF of Arena 3 Spring edition  to this email. [WGARnote: WGAR has not included the attachments in this WGARcompilation of Tu 17th Nov 2020 as we don't email attachments, for accessibility reasons]  At a time when the need for independent media and deep searching analysis could not be stronger, please have a look at this issue, and if you are in a position to do so, do take out a subscription https://arena.org.au/product-category/subscriptions/ .. If you like what you see, please let others know, feel free to forward the attached complimentary PDF to friends and colleagues. Or consider an Arena subscription as a gift to someone, we have a blockbuster Arena 4 Summer edition coming out before Christmas.
