Technofixes: a critical guide to climate change technologies.This report investigates the large scale technologies that corporations and governments are putting on the table, including hydrogen, carbon capture and storage, agrofuels, electricity from nuclear, solar and wind, as well as a range of ideas to reflect the sun’s energy or remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. It finds what works, what doesn’t, the present state of these industries and where they’re heading. It explains why, even though many of the technologies do work, the corporate-capitalist model cannot deploy them effectively, and it goes in search of more realistic and socially just solutions.. -£5.00

Palestine: Profiting From the Occupation On the second big Gaza solidarity march in London on 10th January, angry protesters
smashed the front of a Starbucks store on Kensington High St, near the Israeli
embassy, while other activists occupied the Ahava beauty shop in central London.
Other actions in protest at the Israeli massacre in Gaza that month included occupying
the offices of the British Israel Communications and Research Centre (BICOM) in
central London, 'decommissioning' the ITT/EDO arms factory in Brighton and university
occupations across the country calling for divestment. So, who are these companies
and why are they being targeted by protesters and campaigners? Corporate Watch
takes a detailed look. - £2.00
