This dance-till-you-die stripped down spin-off of our Balkan Bohemia night, is in aid of Shell to Sea, a network of concerned citizens from all walks of life who seek to draw attention to the planned corrib gas project in Mayo. Damage for our night of mayhem is a humble €5.

Check out www.myspace.com/balkanbohemia and
www.corribsos.com for more info!

In Mayo, Shell and Statoil, with the approval of the Irish government, are planning to:

- Take land from local residents and build a high pressure gas pipeline that will go past their houses: The pressure inside the pipeline will be up to four times greater than that of the biggest Bord Gais pipelines. The pipeline will be going through boggy land with a history of landslides.

- Construct a gas refinery on unstable bog: This construction will be using previously untried methods to stabilise the bog surface and involve a massive amount of traffic. Emissions from the refinery will affect the nearby Carrowmore Lake, source of the regional water supply.

- Pump toxic waste into Broadhaven Bay:A U.C.C. research team found that Broadhaven Bay was an important breading and rearing area for dolphins and whales. They recorded over 220 sightings of seven whale and dolphin species, plus sightings of two seal species, in Broadhaven Bay and north-west Mayo waters.

The government is giving them our gas for practically nothing and then we will have to buy it back.

Shell have been given permission by the High Court to start work on the on land parts of the pipeline in less than a months time, construction is due to start on the landfall, where the off-shore pipeline hits the beach, on May 31st.

Help the local people to stop Shell!

There is the possibility that what is happening in Erris, Mayo, will only be the first instance of corporations cutting corners at the expense of the environment and local communities as they exploit the potential oil and gas reserves off the coast, particularly the west coast, of Ireland.

Shell to Sea is an international non violent campaign, rooted in the Erris community. They seek to ensure the proposed Corrib gas terminal and pipeline are constructed offshore, as is best practice. In doing so they seek to highlight the negligent environmental, health, safety, planning and economic consequences of this government backed plan.
