Gleneagles Hotel, Scotland, 6-8th of July 2005 The G8 summits are where the 8 most powerful economic nations meet in secret to decide what sort of world we will live in. We've seen the results: our environment is sacrificed to profit, our health service is run down or privatized and millions of people continue to die for want of clean water and basic medicine. Starhawk writes: Many big names will be involved: ActionAid; Oxfam; Save the Children; Comic Relief; Trade Justice Movement; Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth and the New Economics Foundation. Many, many more grass roots activists will be too, including Pagans! If you'd like to be part of a this
historic event, join the e-mail discussion group about Pagans and
the G8: If you'd like to join a team of Pagan healers at the G8, join the Tribe of Brigid. Background: The Gleneagles Hotel is in Perthshire, about 40 miles/70
