Consequently, ecological transition is synonymous with the revival of nuclear power, giant wind power projects, mega solar panel farms and the continued production of fossil fuels. It also means the reinforcement of extractivism and opening new mines, such as lithium mines to produce millions of electric batteries. It also means ever more infrastructure, extra-high-voltage lines, transformers, undersea cables\u2026 ever more pollution, waste and death.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the creation of new markets, new factories, millions of jobs, and the reproduction of an alienating system that destroys the individual. It\u2019s a transition to new forms of exploitation, and the continuation of the society of work. It\u2019s still the metro-work-sleep (yes, but decarbonized!).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the digitization of the world, the loss of autonomy, the destruction of solidarity, mass surveillance\u2026<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the misleading presentation of technology as a solution to political problems, it\u2019s the absolute belief in the ideology of progress, it\u2019s driving straight into the wall (yes, but electric!).<\/p>\n<p>Above all, it\u2019s a vast political manipulation by which the world\u2019s leaders hope to appease us by making us believe that their activities will now be \u201cgreen\u201d and \u201ceco-responsible\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t want this transition or any other: we want a revolution. And that means destroying capitalism\u2019s infrastructure here and now.<\/p>\n<p>This is why a MobiSDEC electric charging point was sabotaged with expanding foam on August 7 in Caen, on the Place du Parvis Notre-Dame, right next to the Conseil D\u00e9partemental and the Pr\u00e9fecture du Calvados, which are both \u201cpartners\u201d of the Syndicat D\u00e9partemental d\u2019\u00c9nergies du Calvados (SDEC), which installs and maintains most of the charging points in the department.<\/p>\n<p>The sabotaged charging station is also a stone\u2019s throw from the Place de la R\u00e9publique site, where mayor Jo\u00ebl Bruneau and Normandy\u2019s biggest property developer SEDELKA are planning to build a \u201cgourmet market\u201d and underground parking lot, raising rents, commodifying the space, securing the square and persecuting those who don\u2019t come there to consume. So, as stated in a communique issued following the sabotage of an electric charging point in Caen on May 17: let\u2019s pull the plug on connected neighborhoods! Against their electric world, their devastating projects and the authoritarian capitalism that is ruining our lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Translated by actforfree.noblogs.org &nbsp; What is the ecological transition?
