QUOTES

“We must not leave the health of our families and protection of the world ecology to corporations, governments and military organizations preoccupied with profit, power and armed conquest. Rather, we must take that responsibility into our own hands. It’s up to us to come together across cultural and political divides to prevent these military-industrial polluters from degrading the earth and threatening the well-being of our communities for their own selfish interests.”.

We're a little outnumbered, and a little outspent, but we've turned around decisions by the biggest bureaucracy on the planet."

"We're trying to protect these communities from our own weapons of mass destruction. We didn't have to go to Iraq to find these things. They're right here."
