<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I actually keep meaning
to email the general list because I wondered about bringing my
Apothecary. I have a project called the Solidarity Apothecary,
where I have mostly been posting herbal medicines to people
experiencing state repression but now this summer I will start
to go to gatherings/camps and host a space. For example, with
various herbal teas etc and first aid support and just generally
be a place if anyone is unwell or needs to rest etc. Of course
with a good distro of radical herbalism literature! You can see
more about the project here -

<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I grow all the plants
myself so there is this connection again to agroecology etc. I
also wondered about maybe bringing my microscope and doing a
soil biology workshop!</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Anyhow! Lots of ideas.
I will try to organise a crew for the travel. Do you know if
anyone is planning to go to the Earth First Gathering to promote
the camp/action? <br>

Thanks for this, looks good! I had a quick scan through, will read
it properly in the next few days. I can continue to work on the
yellow bits that need filling in, especially the last section on
agroecology and food sovereignty. My time is also extremely
limited at the moment, so let's see what get's done!
<br>
<br>
Nice that Corporate Watch is willing to pay someone!
<br>
<br>
Will you be making it to the actual camp / action in September?
<br>
<br>
Enjoy your time in Ireland and the teaching! Sounds great :)

Sorry for the delay. I work part time so everything is always
tight!
<br>
So I didn't get as far as I'd hoped this week. I only really had
today
<br>
to work on this because some admin tasks took up more of my
time.
<br>
Please find a draft attached. The 'yellow' bits are things to
<br>
complete. I am going away for a week now to Ireland and then
actually
<br>
teaching a company investigation course followed by teaching a
<br>
permaculture course!!
<br>
<br>
So my time over the next three weeks is sadly very limited :( I
think
<br>
the remaining sections are the parts that there is already the
most
<br>
existing information on, so perhaps others can start to complete
these
<br>
sections? I can also come back to them at the end of July if not
too
<br>
late.
<br>
<br>
The cool news is that Corporate Watch are happy to pay a graphic
<br>
designer we work with to knock it into a report/zine as I won't
have
<br>
time.
<br>
<br>
I will still have internet access so will try to stay on top of
my
<br>
emails at least! Anything really urgent maybe email my personal

I love the idea of translating the lexicon, and also of
sending it
<br>
through the free the soil list. Could be nice for us to send
it
<br>
through
<br>
the FFA list as well. If no one is opposed I think it could be
nice
<br>
to

publish on the ASEED webpage with a link to Free the Soil and

I just uploaded loads of articles in all the different
sections of
<br>
the
<br>
research folder on the FTS cloud, so maybe you can find some
useful
<br>
information there!
<br>
<br>
In the FtS research folder there is as well an updated version
of
<br>
the
<br>
Lexicon. Please have a look and add terms and discriptions if
you
<br>
want.
<br>
<br>
The plan is to have this info available in the languages that
are
<br>
most
<br>
relevant for the campaign. At the moment this seem to be
English,
<br>
German, Dutch and Danish. So if people feel like translating
bits
<br>
this
<br>
would be very helpful. If we do some outreach in those
different
<br>
countries it is important that we use the right terms.

Personally I think that it would be good to send an email
about this
<br>
lexicon and the yara company file to the general FtS list.
Those
<br>
documents are also meant to educate ourselves. And we don't
have to
<br>
wait
<br>
until the files are completly ready, probably they will always
stay
<br>
work
<br>
in progress.
<br>
<br>
Any objections against sending an update to the general email
list?

Hey!
<br>
<br>
Ok nice.
<br>
<br>
Yes there is some information on the ASEED website, some on
the FTS
<br>
cloud in the Alternatives folder. But then also I have some
stuff on
<br>
my computer here, maybe I can upload that onto the cloud, or I
can
<br>
try
<br>
to write something and send it over in line with your
subheadings.
<br>
Although sounds like you also have some interesting sources to
tap
<br>
into.
<br>
<br>
Definitely up for giving feedback and contributions once your

Yes I am using the research already undertaken in the company

it

would

be great to have feedback and contributions once the

That would be great to have your existing info on
alternatives! Is
<br>
that on the ASEED website? I also have a lot of existing
agroecology

resources I can use for this too.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for the feedback about the structure, I will integrate

That's great about the lobbying stuff already being covered.

Hey Nicole,
<br>
<br>
Thanks for all this, it is looking great with lots of really
<br>
important points to cover. Do you want to divide the work /
<br>
subsections up slightly between the people on this list? It
looks
<br>
like a lot of things to be covered by you, although maybe
there are
<br>
more people planning to work on it at Corporate Watch? Also
some of
<br>
the information you can just take from the company file you
can find
<br>
on the cloud as some of the points are covered in that
document. And
<br>
also with the alternatives, we have information within ASEED
that we
<br>
could share with you so that you don't have to do the same
work
<br>
twice!
<br>
<br>
My main point about the order of the subsections is that I
would
<br>
move the "Controversy" section to the bottom or before the
<br>
alternatives. Of course it is important to know what kind of
<br>
controversies Yara has been involved in and also shows how
<br>
despicable these multinational corporations can be, but I
think we
<br>
need to have the main focus on Yara and it's affect on climate
<br>
change, threat to food security, greenwashing etc which you
cover
<br>
after the point about "Controversy". It feels like the point
of the
<br>
Free the Soil campaign is to highlight Yara in relation to its
<br>
impact on climate change throught the production of synthetic
<br>
nitrogen fertilizer and and the fact that no one knows this,
so this
<br>
should continue to be our focus. However, I do like your idea
to
<br>
make a map of all these controversies to show visually where
Yara is
<br>
and where people could potentially do local decentralised
actions.
<br>
<br>
The other thing is now we have had contact with Belen and
Pascoe
<br>
from Corporate Europe Observatory and they will most probably
write
<br>
something on EU lobbying so it would be good not to overlap.
<br>
<br>
Ok, let me know what you think to those comments. And thank
you a
<br>
lot for the work you have done so far!

<br>

Hey!
<br>
<br>
Apologies, my research with this Gold Mining campaign has
taken
<br>
longer
<br>
than expected.
<br>
<br>
I have started to do some Yara research. So far, mapping the
<br>
controversies and making a directory that can accompany the
article
<br>
with all the locations on one page in case of decentralised
actions.
<br>
I
<br>
also did some shareholder research. I need to copy what I am
doing
<br>
on
<br>
crabgrass into the cloud, I keep forgetting!
<br>
<br>
I have attached an overview of the article I am planning to
write.
<br>
It
<br>
will obviously be significantly larger than one blog post, so
we are
<br>
<br>
hoping to format it into a pdf/report that can be downloaded
also.
<br>
<br>
Can people take a look and give me feedback of what is
missing? Is
<br>
it

what you were hoping for?

How is everyone?

<br>
Is anyone going to make it to the meeting this weekend? I
cannot as
<br>
I have to work on the farm and no one can cover for me this
<br>
weekend!!
<br>
<br>
I just sent an email to the fts list with a link to the
company file
<br>
<br>
about Yara that I uploaded onto the FTS cloud. This is a piece
of
<br>
work from Flip, Katie, Jula and I who are based in the
Netherlands.
<br>
It needs more work but at least I wanted to show that
something has
<br>
been happening on the research side of things.

Hope it goes well this weekend and hope to see you all soon if
not

in September!
