The irony being they've drove a dirty diesel truck carrying a yacht into london and there causing traffic jams so everyone is stuck in a jam probably with there engines running causing double the pollution there would normally be.

Together Gail and I talk about the past, present, and possible future of Extinction Rebellion. We cover such territory as the visionary and psychedelic origins of Extinction Rebellion, how to orient ourselves in the face of possible human extinction, how to balance urgency and trust in activism, and how Extinction Rebellion could use distributed organizational architectures to enable mass participation in this emerging movement

I work in that building, albeit not today. A few of my team are in there and have been locked in all afternoon.
We’ve had people camped at the front door before, memorably Greenpeace were living in a giant polar bear thing for a few weeks, but I can’t recall targeted damage like this in my time.
Completely unnecessary really.
If they’re really serious about the energy transition then they need people who can, and are willing to, invest billions in renewables.
Now, I wonder who might be doing just that?

Little sequence about them on PM on R4 this evening.
Their manifesto has 3 points
1) gov to proclaim extinction emergency
2) net zero emissions by 2025 ( yes in *6* years time)
3) citizens council to instruct government on radical policy proposals
When Evan Davis mildly quizzed the founder on what her expectations around life in net zero emissions ‘25 Britain would be like, including the complete elimination of plane flight, cars etc she hummed and hawed and said the detail would need to be worked out by experts.
Fruit loops.

All through the ongoing Brexit debate, we keep hearing exhortations to civil disobedience (up to civil war), using the justification that people's voices aren't being heard by mainstream politics, yet here we have what appears to be a growing international movement staging civil disobedience events with the exact same justification, and they're instantly deried and dismissed. Funny old world.
a tiny amount of people that want to destroy our current standard of life and take us back to the dark ages vs 17.4 million in the uk that want to leave a political construct,not sure that is a good example. the "growing international movement" exists only on the internet and iphone pictures taken in portrait. once the kids realise their devices won't have a reliable charging source if they get their way ,they won't be long changing their outlook.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
