that is good, right

i mean i never was good at this subject at school

[Nicky91]

this cause what they protest for is good, but the execution of it can be better


WNF (world nature fund - wereld natuur fonds) has few teens here also protesting for climate, some organize ''meatless mondays'' or recycling plastic making straws for cold drinks etc

that sort of things is good for the cause, but i guess i could agree with some of these extinction rebellion people going to mcdonalds seems a bit wrong

i just wanted to say this

C02 is not a pollutant. Without it almost all life would go extinct. Why do you think the Romans and Greeks wore togas back then? Because it was warmer then than it is today. The sun is 99% of the solar system and goes through cycles. FYI, if you listen to the environmentalists worth listening to we may actually be entering another ice age.

Climate change is real (it has been for 4 billion years) but man-made climate change is, for the most part, just a myth and an excuse to set up a world government. There are environmental problems that do deserve attention but this gets way more attention than it is entitled to. These protestors should just go out and plant a tree.

To be fair, old John looked to be enjoying himself, and the Police didn't mistreat him as he would have been in other countries.

Was old John arrested for having no ID?

Yes James that's why we are doing this by 2050.

I find them really hypocritical,one was asked yesterday if she had a TV at home ,she couldn't answer , IF they are so concerned about it ,do what most of us do that care about it ,recycle all you can,dont drop litter,if you see litter pick it up and bin it,dont buy plastic if you can help it,try cycling sometimes ,and just do your bit, every little helps, these people are not helping at all,they are just wanting their 15 mins of fame and the amount of police needed is putting lives at risk,just because people cannot behave themselves,pathetic.

I'm all for peaceful protests but these people are distracting everyday life. I am someone that is very critical of the police for many reasons (which i will not go into but i have been seeing huge levels of corruption), but i can fault them for this event. I can fault them for many other things though.

The prime minister’s father has told a crowd at Extinction Rebellion’s London demonstrations he backs their methods and is proud to call himself an “uncooperative crusty”.

Stanley Johnson was responding to a question about comments made by his son, who called environmental protesters occupying sites across Westminster “uncooperative crusties” in “heaving hemp bivouacs”.

Speaking on a panel from a stage set up by protesters in Trafalgar Square, Johnson said: “On the point of non-cooperative crusties, I wear that badge with pride.

“It’s one of the nicest things that has been said about me for a long time. A non-cooperative crusty, absolutely superb – do they taste good? That’s my thought, I think they do.”

Good man, Stanley

If they were a large group of football supporters, they would be marched out of town. The Police are capable, but are likely getting their orders from higher up.

This.

Did you see the video of the copper punching that football supporter in the crowd when they were saying "get back"... now, would they ever even dare do that to these climate protesters? NO!

The coppers are trying to justify the punch saying "no arrests were made so it's all good", still assault though.

I am not saying that these protesters need to be punched, quite the contrary, I am saying that NO ONE should be, including that supporter in the crowd at the football match.

Someone will get hurt sooner or later and it will probably be some poor innocent bystander

The issue and so the protest is here to stay for good.

Warming and mass extinction are only two of many issues but there will be more.

And there will be a whole range of types of activism, from education through direct action all the way to eco terrorism
Make no mistake, it has barely started. It will grow for the rest of our lives.
