We are pleased to announce the launch of CATAPA\u2019s new Study and Lobby Working Group.\u00a0<\/span>The Working Group will produce cutting edge research and lobby on the following themes;<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Research Theme 1: Planned Obsolescence: Ctrl Alt Del Campaign<\/b><\/p>\n

Our current linear model of consumption and production is a driving cause of the climate crisis. In this \u201cthrowaway\u201d model, the drive for limitless production and consumption of electronics places quantity above product quality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Products are made with a limited life span (planned obsolescence) or the design makes repair difficult or unfeasible. Some products are designed to fail, with system faults purposefully incorporated to reduce their lifespan. This is a deliberate strategy on behalf of the electronics industry to encourage users to purchase \u2018new and improved\u2019 products. This is<\/span> planned obsolescence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ending planned obsolescence requires policy change on the Flemish and EU level. The planet urgently requires strong politicians willing to take a stand against the electronics industry and implement strict regulation obliging multinational companies to produce eco-designed products. Electronic products must be<\/span> repairable and made to last,<\/span><\/a> instead of disposable products made to break down quickly and be replaced.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Research Theme 2: EU Critical Raw Materials<\/b><\/p>\n

CATAPA strives towards a world in which the extraction of non-renewable resources is no longer necessary. Achieving this requires a fundamental transformation of our society and relationship to nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

U<\/span>nder the guise of <\/span>\u2018green mining\u2019,<\/span><\/a> the EU\u2019s <\/span>Critical Raw Materials<\/span><\/a> list outlines a strategy for the resourcing of over thirty mined resources, such as lithium, deemed \u2018necessary\u2019 for the green transition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Securing such an increased demand for raw materials requires an expansion of mining operations within the EU. More mining will lead to severe negative socio-environmental impacts, such as human rights abuses, pollution and loss of land. The transition to renewable energy must be just.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Research Theme 3: Right to Say No<\/b><\/p>\n

A just transition includes local communities having the Right to Say No to mining projects. Under the \u2018social licence to operate\u2019 (SLO), a non-binding voluntary commitment to \u2018good practice\u2019, corporations are able to <\/span>greenwash<\/span><\/a> their operations. Local communities have no legal instrument to oppose unwanted mining projects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Where local communities resort to direct action to resist mining operations, they are dismissed, labeled as terrorists and face severe repression and human rights violations. <\/span>227 environmental defenders were killed in 2020.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Additionally, the <\/span>Investor-State Dispute Settlement system (ISDS)<\/span><\/a>, embedded in international trade agreements, enables corporations to sue states, predominantly in the Global South, over opposition to proposed mining projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ISDS system must be dismantled. Fairer, democratic consultation mechanisms must be adopted. Local communities must have the decisive, legally binding say over the fate of mining projects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Research Theme 4: Alternatives to extractivism<\/b><\/p>\n

We’re living in an age of crises. The current <\/span>mantra and false solutions of endless growth, consumption and subjugation of nature is pushing the planet towards <\/span>socio-ecological collapse.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

So, what is the solution?<\/span><\/p>\n

To meet this moment, we must dare to imagine and embody bold alternatives such as <\/span>Degrowth<\/span><\/a>. Our economy must be based on social and environmental justice. We must repair our relationship with nature and recognise our co-existence within the web of life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get involved!<\/b><\/p>\n
