Hi everyone,

Tomorrow British Geological Survey will be conducting soil samples in our area. I am one of the people doing them, there'll be small pairs of people in high vis jackets with what look like metal poles with loops on the ends of them. Please do not get stressed if you see us in the parks as council's have granted access. Also we may be asking permission to sample peoples gardens due to the lack of open public ground. If you see us about we're a friendly bunch and feel free to ask us about what we're doing as we have info leaflets...

maybe see you tomorrow guys..

sorry not to reply sooner due to lack of internet access. Firstly thank you to all the lovely helpful individuals that let us sample their gardens. The sampling is being conducted as part of two studies run by BGS; London Earth and GBASE. They are analysing the content of the soil, the minerals and any contaminants present. These will then be mapped and compared to land use, the bedrock geology and comparative studies between cities and rural and city locations. The results will not be availble for two years and are involved with any regulatory body or environmental group. If you would like further info please see the following links:

    • Direct link (sorry duplicated!):  Today, more than 30 states from around the world will gather in Bogotá, Colombia, for the “Emergency Conference” to halt the Gaza genocide: the most ambitious multilateral response since Israel began its campaign of devastation two years ago. Bringing together a broad coalition of governments — from Algeria to Brazil, China to Spain, Indonesia to Qatar — the conference aims, in the words of Colombian President Gustavo Petro, “to move from condemnation to collective action.” At 10:30 Bogotá, 11:30 New York, 16:30 London and 17:30 Paris, we invite you to join this historic gathering's opening ceremony live from the Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You will hear testimony from Dr. Thaer Ahmed, who will recount his experience of working in Rafah and Khan Younis amidst Israel’s genocide. Rosa Yolanda Villavicencio, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Colombia, will detail her government’s concrete commitments to uphold international law. After she was sanctioned by the Trump administration, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese will deliver a powerful message about the failure of the international system to protect the Palestinian people — and urge immediate and coordinated action by principled states. “Here in Bogotá, a growing number of states have the opportunity to break the silence and revert to a path of legality by finally saying: enough. Enough impunity. Enough empty rhetoric. Enough exceptionalism. Enough complicity,” Albanese will say. Today, the call from Bogotá will echo around the world. Join us. In solidarity,  The Progressive International Secretariat
