The main driver of the Decolonial Maps project wanted to place the main agents of climate change on a map with names and surnames. “The earth is not dying, they are killing themselves, and those who are killing have names and directions.” The article starts with that quote from Utah Phillips.
"100 companies have been responsible for more than 70% of greenhouse gases in the world since 1988," he added. The types (sic) that run these companies – most of them are types – have been enriched by literally turning their backs on life in the world. Their business model is based on the destruction of the only house that human beings have ever known.

They all together control the rights of most of the world's minerals – a "slave" to exploit oil, gas and coal, which have not yet been exhumed. You have to know that we will not leave them quiet until you decide that they will be left on Earth the motto Keep It In The Grownd that uses the environmental disobedience initiatives of recent years. Not just their companies, but themselves. Something personal has been sought.
This map represents countries, and the size of countries depends on carbon dioxide emissions that have been emitted since industrialization. Below you can see, for example, the enlarged European part.
"This map is a response to the myth that we can stop climate change by changing our customs and buying more green products. Whether or not we separate our waste, these corporations will continue to spoil the planet until we stay. Those who make the most important decisions in these companies have the privilege of relative anonymity, and with this map, we want to break that privilege and scream at them. These guys have to feel the responsibility to save the planet, as we all feel."

Eskola inguruko natur guneak aztertu dituzte Hernaniko Lehen Hezkuntzako bost ikastetxeetako ikasleek. Helburua, bikoitza: klima larrialdiari aurre egiteko eremu horiek identifikatu eta kontserbatzea batetik, eta hezkuntzarako erabiltzea, bestetik. Eskola bakoitzak natur eremu... [+]
Agintari gutxik aitortzen dute publikoki, disimulurik eta konplexurik gabe, multinazional kutsatzaileen alde daudela. Nahiago izaten dute enpresa horien aurpegi berdea babestu, “planetaren alde” lan egiten ari direla harro azpimarratu, eta kutsadura eta marroiz... [+]

Nola azaldu 10-12 urteko ikasleei bioaniztasunaren galerak eta klima aldaketaren ondorioek duten larritasuna, “ez dago ezer egiterik” ideia alboratu eta planetaren alde elkarrekin zer egin dezakegun gogoetatzeko? Fernando Valladares biologoak hainbat gako eman dizkie... [+]
Eskoziako Lur Garaietara otsoak itzularazteak basoak bere onera ekartzen lagunduko lukeela adierazi dute Leeds unibertsitateko ikertzaileek.. Horrek, era berean, klima-larrialdiari aurre egiteko balioko lukeela baieztatu dute, basoek atmosferako karbono-dioxidoa xurgatuko... [+]
