Next week's meeting, Tuesday lunch, will be a regular speaker meeting. The speaker will be Dana May Dolezsar. Her topic will be "Ecocide: The Missing 5th Crime". Genocide, War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity, and the Crime of Aggression; are identified, globally, as the worst crimes against peace, the crimes of gravest concern to the international community. What if I were to tell you that there was a missing 5th crime? The crime of Ecocide. In this fascinating 20-minute presentation, you will learn about the rapidly growing campaign to make the mass destruction of ecosystems an international crime at the International Criminal Court. You will learn who is doing it, how it can be done, the timeline, the achievements thus far, and what it could mean for humanity given the current environmental crises we face. Speaker Dana May Dolezsar from Stop Ecocide Canada will introduce you to the campaign and ask you to consider, "How would our world be different if the mass destruction of nature were a crime?"
Dana May Dolezsar is an activist, poet, filmmaker, and student of sustainability management living and working on Coast Salish Territories known as Vancouver BC, Canada. She is an organizing member of Stop Ecocide Canada and founder of West Coast Youth for Ecocide Law. Dana has been campaigning for action on climate change since she was 12 years old, giving speeches about the Kyoto accord back in 2002. She has attended countless marches and rallies and helped organize grassroots campaigns including blockades and non-violent direct action. In 2022 Dana turned her attention to the law and felt that bringing NVDA cases into the courtroom needed to be supported by clearly advocating for a change in legislation. Dana became an "Earth Protector" and began volunteering with Stop Ecocide Canada, meeting with MP's and giving presentations on Ecocide Law at schools, online, and even on Parliament Hill.
Note that the deadline to RSVP is no later than Sunday Mar 31st as our numbers need to be guaranteed to TCC on Monday morning. Looking forward to seeing you next Tuesday.
