Extinction Rebellion
As people of all ages, backgrounds and origins have joined together as the Extinction Rebellion in London as a “wake-up call” to the UK and Parliament, it is clear that climate breakdown and ecological collapse threaten our existence. Therefore, this is a good time to reflect on what we are doing. In addition, we should consider how our actions are disabling the climate for future generations.
Extinction Rebellion, often shortened to XR, is a global environmental movement that uses non‑violent protest to highlight the urgency of the climate and ecological crisis. The group focuses on raising public awareness, encouraging governments to act based on scientific evidence, and pushing climate issues higher up the public agenda. While its methods are sometimes controversial, Extinction Rebellion has played a significant role in bringing climate conversations into mainstream media and everyday discussion.
