February is Global Population Speak Out Month! John Feeney, Ph.D., writes about the fundamental drivers and historical underpinnings of the global ecological crisis. His work has appeared in publications including the BBC's Green Room, The Guardian, PeopleAndPlanet.net, and The Oil Drum. Informed by a deep ecology perspective, John explores such topics as human overpopulation and the root causes of today's environmental problems. Worthy of headlines, such topics are instead underreported in the media. John works to help change that. His current project is the Global Population Speak Out, a grassroots effort to bring new, respected voices to the problem of overpopulation, helping to weaken the taboo currently suppressing discussion of this crucial issue.For more information go to: http://gpso.wordpress.com/

Paul Hesling, founder of www.thefreepress.org.uk discusses the current economic crisis from the perspective of the UK. In his own words:“Working as a freelance copywriter and marketeer, a chance meeting in London in 1994 opened up the veritable can of worms that is the global banking system and the corrupt and unethical practices that lie at the heart of it. This revelatory information transformed my understanding of everything I had known, or thought I knew up to that point. Working further with this contact revealed ever more information but also much deception and betrayal followed which damaged many good people. Since 2000 I have been the dog with the proverbial bone, chewing through masses of research, first in an attempt to understand just what and who it was I and others had upset so much and second, to understand and integrate all the areas which work as one to retard the empowerment of the individual. As this has become clearer, the current task at hand is to now connect with others to work towards the world we want to live in as opposed to the one that is being imposed upon us.”

Bill Sharon's commentary on the current economic crisis

After receiving a BA in Film and Psychology from Emerson College in 2002, and a certificate in screenwriting from the same school in 2003, Solet went to work collaborating on a feature length script with his long time mentor, Eli (Cabin Fever/ Hostel) Roth, while continuing to write and direct his own material. Solet's 2005 short, Means to an End, was awarded, "Best Short Horror Film" from the genre's number one authority, "Fangoria Magazine," receiving distribution on Fangoria's prestigious "Blood Drive 2" DVD. Means to an End also won "Best Short Film" and the "Audience Choice Award" at the 2005 Rhode Island International Horror Festival, and "Best Extreme Horror Film" at the 2005 Dragon Con International Film Festival. Solet's latest short film, Grace, has already won "Best Short Film" at the 2006 Rhode Island Horror Festival, the "Peer's Choice Award" at Dragon Con, 2006, and has recently become the first independent film to screen on Fangoria TV.Solet has received equal praise for his work as a screenwriter. His body-horror script, Repeater, came in Second Place in Hollywood's First Glance Film Festival, was a Quarter Finalist in the 2006 Screenwriting Expo, and a Finalist in New York's VisionFest 2006 Screenwriting Contest. His feature length thriller Heartland won Third Place at VisionFest 2005, was a Quarter Finalist in the 2005 Horror Screenplay Contest, finished in the top 25% at the 2006 Screenwriting Expo, and was a Quarter Finalist at the 2006 American Screenwriter's Association Contest. Eli Roth has said Solet's work, "Makes Cabin Fever look like a Disney movie…."Paul is currently in post-production on the feature length version of Grace, from which the much-lauded short film was distilled. He still works and lives - and lives to work - in Los Angeles, CA, ever determined to do his part in raising the bar in today's genre cinema.
