Extinction Rebellion Science Day

[alexpenson]

The science of the climate and ecological emergency is clear: “we must change how we live” or face “untold suffering” [1]. In exceptional circumstances, social movements can and do provoke lasting systemic change [2]. Pollsters have already identified a recent dramatic shift in public opinion partly attributable to Extinction Rebellion’s activities [3]. Non-violent direct action is working where conventional methods have failed.

As a scientist, your voice has power. Come and find out what we’ve been doing and how you can help. We need you!

No chance. Extinction Rebellion is a pain in the arse. I have little time for civil disobedience movements in liberal democracies.
