No Fracking in Balcombe Society (No FiBs)

Josh Fox is bringing his new film "How to Let Go and Love the World" to the UK this month. He's attending screenings of his latest film in London, Bristol, Manchester, Blackpool, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The London showing is this Tuesday on October 11th: https://tickets.demand.film/event/1042, in London. The ODEON - Panton Street LONDON, SW1Y 4DP. Book your tickets here https://tickets.demand.film/event/1042 "How to Let Go of the World and Love All the Things Climate Can't Change" http://howtoletgomovie.com/ This is the first date on the UK tour; we should do all we can to support such a hero of the anti-fracking movement and give this a good turn out. He is well known for his previous films, "Gasland" being one of them. Many of us (from NoFiBS) were moved by hearing him speak before the screening of "Gasland 2", (in East Grinstead) where we also had the fortune to be able to chat to him after the event. Those films are a brilliant and heartfelt documentary of the development of fracking in the US and its devastating effect on the ordinary people who find themselves living with it. You have probably seen the dreadful news that Conservative Communities Secretary Sajid Javid has given the go-ahead to fracking in Lancashire, overruling the local council's decision to reject applications; more than 14,000 written objections from locals and a petition of over 180,000 people. Local democracy has been overruled by central government setting a dangerous precedent for the rest of the country. Sussex, Nottinghamshire and North Yorkshire are next in line. Fracking has become a human rights issue... It is time to get ACTIVE! PLEASE SUPPORT LANCASHIRE https://act.foe.co.uk/ban-fracking-now?refsid=27775 IMMEDIATE ACTION Whilst the government just allowed fracking to go ahead there's something really quick, easy and obvious we can do to stop it! It takes less than 3 minutes. Anyone can do it. You don't need to protest. You don't need to do paperwork. You don't need to write to your MP. (Although if you haven't yet, do it after this!) All you have to do is.... CHANGE YOUR ENERGY SUPPLIER! British Gas, EDF Energy, E.ON UK, NPower, ScottishPower and SSE all support fracking. If you buy your energy from these companies, YOU ARE SUPPORTING FRACKING. But there many other energy companies who get their energy from wind, solar, tidal, and other renewable energy sources. There's even 'green gas', meaning there's no excuse for fracking. If you switch, there's a good chance your energy bill will be chaeper (the 'Big 6' energy suppliers have already been prosecuted over price fixing). It's easy. Just switch. www.unfrack.me Ecotricity is an energy supplier that has supported Balcombe and our members have found very easy to make the switch, it literally takes a phone-call and they do the rest. https://www.ecotricity.co.uk/ "Consumers have not been told effectively enough that they have huge power and that purchasing and shopping involve a moral choice." Anita Roddick 98% of UK Households buy their energy from these companies, and yet the majority of people are against fracking. People just don't know that it's this easy to stop it. In the next 3 minutes you could sign another petition against fracking, or you could change your energy supplier and take YOUR money out of fracking....imagine if we all did that?
