The  Green  Web              

                    The Green Web is a small independent research group and network with a
                left biocentric perspective. (This is a socially-conscious tendency within the
                deep ecology movement.) The Green Web aims to serve the needs of activists in
                the environmental and green movements. We do not solicit or accept government
                or corporate funding.
 

                    The nucleus of the Green Web is based in Nova Scotia, Canada. It was formed
                in 1988. Our network of information distribution and exchange exists on a local,
                provincial, national, and international level.
 

                    We believe the world-wide industrial capitalist system is destroying the Earth.
                This system, with its human-centered view of nature as a "resource" and its
                roots in endless economic growth and consumerism, has us all on a death path.
                Needed are new ecological, social, political, spiritual and cultural visions, and a
                reduction in human population. A new environmental ethic and associated
                environmental economics are required. Societies have to be ecologically
                sustainable for the survival of all species on Earth.

                    We have so far produced or reproduced eighty bulletins, plus a number
            of articles, book reviews, etc.  Any material may be freely reproduced with
            acknowledgement and if no profit is made. Green Web Bulletins have covered a
            number of main themes:

• green theory and philosophy - including left biocentric theory, deep ecology,
  green movement and party discussions, relationship between the Green and
  the Red, deep ecology and anarchy, animal protection and advocacy,
  spirituality, Green Party electoral politics, etc;  
• the critique of 'sustainable development';  
• forestry and the pulp and paper industry; 
• forestry biocides and their use;  
• wildlife, wild nature and protected areas - terrestrial and marine;  
• marine issues;
  
• energy issues and climate change;
  
• uranium exploration and mining; 
• natural gas, gas pipelines, and the Sable gas project;  
• anti-globalization;
• environmental-aboriginal relationships; 
  
• fundamentalism: religious and economic.
