The Basestar is still unaware of the Colonial Fleet and faced with the alternative of backtracking a long way to go around… some thing or other, Adams decides to attack and hopefully destroy the basestar before they can muster an effective defense or call for backups and reveal the fleet’s position. What they find is a Cylon Basestar, guarding the rim of this galaxy and blocking the Galactica’s path. Contact us at if you are interested in forming a Chapter in the Gainesville area.The Galactica begins searching and finds a solar system in the path, they dispatch a patrol to investigate.

The Tampa Bay Chapter formed in January, 2019 had its first action on Jan. We have members of different races, sexual orientations, and political views. Our Tampa Bay group has members from the surrounding area. They take what they want then sell it back to us wrapped in pollution. Nestlé is attacking earth with multiple problems. We believe people come before profit, however this isn’t how corporations are run or even governed for that matter. If we make it to 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in our seas. Plastic is a huge problem our planet is diseased with. The reports have shown us Climate Change isn’t an “in the future event.” The Change is now and 2019 was just the start of horrible things to come. If we are to survive we will need fresh drinking water and we don’t need it to come in plastic. This also puts plastic into our drinking water and our environment. Nestlé doesn’t just take the water, they then contaminate it by putting it into plastic bottles. We at Extinction Rebellion Tampa Bay refuse to stand by and watch them do it here in our home state. Nestlé has stolen so much of this precious resource already and from around the world. Water is a natural resource that all life forms need to live. We are a Non-Violent movement that is committed to Direct Action in the form of Civil Disobedience. Therefore we must rebel to protect the livelihood of citizens and our natural world, or risk losing everything we cherish. Our political establishment has failed to protect its people from pollution, prevent further mass extinction of species on earth and prevent the possibility of human extinction in the near future. You will have to make plans to paddle down the river to the location and then after the “sit in” proceed down river to the take out point at the SR 47 Bridge. We will not be entering the park or its land, all actions will be done by water. There are rental businesses in the community that can serve you to secure a boat. Come with your own kayak or canoe and sit with us at the head spring of Ginnie Spring.

Bring your own signs or decorate your boat with the intent to bring awareness to stop this water grab from Seven Springs Water Company. Based on the science alone, this permit should be denied because removing water from the Santa Fe River which has Minimum Flow and Level (MFL) data showing it is in “recovery,” which means more water needs to be protected in its natural system not be removed. The SRWMD Board will ultimately decide the fate of this unreasonable water use in the upcoming months. Nestlé has recently been bottling this water under the brand name Zephyrhills with an existing 20 year old permit which has been going through the permit process by the Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD). Seven Springs is selling the spring water that feeds Ginnie Springs and the Devil’s Eye/Ear Complex to Nestlé International. The same people who own Seven Springs Water Company also own Ginnie Springs Outdoors campground. On Saturday, Jan 18, from 10am-3pm we are planning a kayaktivism sit in at Ginnie Springs. This water use is to be used in plastic bottles and sold back to us on the grocery shelves and in vending machines. Join Extinction Rebellion for a direct action on the Santa Fe River to end the water grab for our springwater at Ginnie Springs.
