Paris and Syria: Climate Change and Imperial Energy Wars

Please join us for a Christian Social and Political Thought lecture by Dr Wilf Wilde.

This talk plans to look one year on at the links between the Paris attacks of 13 November 2015 and the climate change talks in Paris of December 2015. First it will also look at the links not pursued in the mainstream media between France and the UK, Syria and Iraq from 1916 to 2016, post-Chilcott. Second, it will look at energy and climate change issues in the light of the Middle Eastern wars after Iraq in 2003.
If we wish to have a more just share of the world’s finite energy resources, we need not only to campaign about climate change but against imperialism, neo-colonialism and a new militarism in the UK, France and Syria - and in Egypt, Libya, Brazil and Thailand - where ‘states of emergency’, coups and military dictatorships symbolise the real new world order after the recession of 2008.
