Climate Activist on Day 29 of Hunger Strike

[limpyhobbler]

...One person who is part of this resistance is a young American activist Brian Eister, who has worked with John Kerry’s presidential campaign, the League of Conservation Voters, the Green Party, Public Citizen and was involved in the Occupy Movement.

But now he has put his body on the line for climate change. He is on the 29th day of a planned 30 day hunger strike. For nearly the last month, all he has consumed is water, salt and potassium.

Brian is currently camped outside the American Petroleum Institute in Washington, the oil industry’s most powerful lobby group, which any regular reader of this blog knows often spins the truth in the name of drilling for more oil.

He is trying to raise awareness about climate change. “I am on hunger strike,” Brian writes, “because I can think of no action which could adequately express the urgency of humanity’s present situation. There are more than a few trends which, left unchecked, are likely to make life impossibly difficult for future generations.”

1. Brian is clearly a subversive

with a history of anti-government agitation. Send him to Gitmo. They have ways to make him eat.
