				BP: The Unfinished Crimes and Plunder of Anglo-American Imperialism / Frederic F. Clairmont


		The disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is only the latest black mark in the annals of the corporate oil giant, British Petroleum. In this booklet, Frederic Clairmont looks back at the central, sordid role played by BP during a pivotal chapter in the history of anti-imperial struggle. It was in Iran (then Persia) that the company first struck oil in 1908 and it was the Iranian government of Prime Minister Mohammad Mossaadeq that nationalized the company's assets in 1951. However, Mossadeq's valiant effort to reclaim the nation's natural wealth and secure for Iran genuine economic and political independence met with a devastating counterstrike from the company's backers in the corridors of imperial power.

				UNPRECEDENTED CLIMATE MOBILIZATION A Handbook for Citizens and Their Governments Elizabeth Woodworth and David Ray Griffin


	“This powerful book by Woodworth and Griffin is an inspiring rallying cry, a call to action grounded in the truth. It can, and must, spur a massive people-led climate insurgency... Like Naomi Klein’s *This Changes Everything*, this book will be a guide for activists for many years to come.” —DR. JILL STEIN, 2016 Green Party Presidential Candidate "Like World wars past, our only option is to mobilize and draw upon every tool at our disposal—in this case, to achieve no less than the decarbonization of the global economy. If you want to under-stand the challenge we face and what you yourself can do to help insure a victorious outcome, read Unprecedented Climate Mobilization: A Handbook for Citizens and Their Governments." —DR. MICHAEL MANN, Professor of Meteorology and Director, Earth System Science Center, Pennsylvania State University

Unprecedented Crime first lays out the
culpability of governmental, political and
religious bodies, corporations, and the
media through their failure to report or
act on the climate emergency. No
emergency response has even been
contemplated by wealthy high-emitting
national governments. Extreme weather
reporting never even hints at the need
to address climate change.

"...there's a breathtaking array of
technological solutions to the climate
crisis outlined in the book. They include
a detailed explanation how
improvements in battery technology is
making it far easier to store renewable
electricity. And, of course,
Unprecedented Crime documents
phenomenal progress in the
development of solar, wind, and
geothermal energy...".
