From the article:
"Franny Armstrong, 10:10 founder, said the shock tactics were justified. “We 'killed’ five people to make No Pressure - a mere blip compared to the 300,000 real people who now die each year from climate change.” "
Where has this come from?
I was just wondering exactly that. It's completely untrue. Is she referring to 300,000 people dying because of weather events?"Franny Armstrong, 10:10 founder, said the shock tactics were justified. “We 'killed’ five people to make No Pressure - a mere blip compared to the 300,000 real people who now die each year from climate change.” "

They are dead in the water anyway, they are just becoming more marginal and therefore desperate. This is all good as it will have no other effect than the continued destruction of their credibility. They will soon be abandoned and I can guarantee that not many "celebrities" will be keen to get involved in their next campaign due to reputation damage.
It just another big nail in their coffin and they are exposing themselves as the tree hugging loonies that they actually are with comments like "300,000 people die each year due to climate change" even the most on the fence members of the public know this to be complete bks .

ks .I thought it was a joke at first. Are the people in it supporting the campaign to stop climate change or taking the piss out of green ecomentalists?
As it turns out it was real... I'm a bit shocked. I mean they kill school children to get their point across : | With an explosive set inside them. Isn't that worse than Hitler?
I didn't mind 'doing my bit' before, although I wouldn't take too kindly to be told I have to hit a target when it comes to cutting emission. The fact they are happy to kill people for disagreeing, makes me want to burn all the worlds fuel by flying a concorde around the planet until it's all gone.

She's retracted it, an apology here
"Many people found the resulting film extremely funny, but unfortunately some didn't and we sincerely apologise to anybody we have offended."
It never seems to change does it, that those who shout the loudest know the least, just how retarded is this woman to think this wouldn't offend anyone?
here she reiterates "we got it wrong"

how many other things have you 'got wrong' Franny? how many other people are you going to inflict your ill informed opinions upon?

This sort of thing really winds me up."Franny Armstrong, 10:10 founder, said the shock tactics were justified. “We 'killed’ five people to make No Pressure - a mere blip compared to the 300,000 real people who now die each year from climate change.” "

300,000 people. Names and cause of death please.
I can justify giving money to help people who might be starving to death as a result of famine, or dying from curable or preventable diseases - this is a tangible thing with a tangible outcome. You can quite confidently say '300,000 people died of AIDS', because it's possible to name them and point out their graves, and therefore identify AIDS as a problem and set the scientists to work on it.
But 'climate change'. 300,000 people? Who are they, how did they actually die?
For example 'flooding' doesn't count as 'climate change'. Flooding is the reason why places like the Netherlands have such extensive flood defences, in which case it was 'inadequate flood defences' that caused the deaths, not 'climate change'.
'Climate change' as cause of death is as vague and subjective a term as 'not being very well' or 'being really badly hurt'. Describing it as a great big abstract notion, then bludgeoning people over the head with childrens' severed limbs to make the point doesn't get away from the fact that it doesn't make the situation any clearer or propose a workable solution.
If flooding is the problem, we need to address flood defences and urban slum sprawl in the developing world.
If famine is the problem, we need to address land conservation and farming methods in the developing world.
If air pollution is the problem, we need to address an international agreement on reducing air pollution, which includes China, and a hell of a lot more than 'carbon' (I think they're getting at carbon dioxide, although I'd be more worried about carbon monoxide frankly, it's far more dangerous)
If drought is the problem, we need to address the unnecessarily high cost of desalination of seawater. If we're supposedly going to be drowning in seawater but running out of drinking water (how does this happen simultaneously, exactly?), then we take advantage of the situation.
Saying vague, exploitative phrases and describing problems without clear, positive solutions is tantamount to suggesting that for the good of the planet, we'd better all go and commit suicide. All of us.
Complete disgust at this, heard about it last week. The 10:10 campaign should be ashamed of themselves if this is what they stand for and how they communicate.
This is not short of being blackmail, extrusion, unsolicited pressure and then rest. Next vehicle = bigger engine.
If 10:10 is a charity, they should be referred to the charities commission.

Every time I get bothered by a Green chugger, I point out that whilst they have charitable status, so have public schools, and I'm not going to give them any money either.Having charitable status and actually being a charity are two completely different things. Give money to Save The Children to 'help Africa' and they'll spend it on food, medical aid and educational materials. Give money to Greenpeace to 'help Africa' and they'll spend it on annoying videos.
That is absolutely fking diabolical.
Who the hell do they think they will influence with what is basically the portrayal of extremist vioence, in a paranoid society.
I don't know how the hell anyone can find that funny.
If theses knew anything they would know that methane is a bigger issue.
