'In Manchester, protesters carried placards and banners with messages like “Only fools insure fossil fuels” outside the premises of several insurers, looking to get the industry to stop backing new oil, gas, and coal projects.' #InsureOurFuture insurancebusinessmag.com/uk/news/enviro…

Lisa Ridley of Extinction Rebellion Manchester: ”The Insurers could be climate heroes and use their ‘superpower’ to shut down the fossil fuel industry and help save our entire civilisation and the biosphere that we rely on for life" #InsureOurFuture aboutmanchester.co.uk/insurance-comp…

'Hundreds of protesters from Extinction Rebellion hit the streets of Manchester as part of its major national campaign to ‘Insure Our Survival’. Activists called for insurers to “Dump all new oil, gas & coal now – or we’ll keep coming back”.' #StopEACOP protectionreporter.co.uk/dump-all-new-o…

Excellent action today by #ExtinctionRebellion in #Manchester, calling for the insuranc eindustry to stop backing projects that destroy the climate and cause disasters like we've seen in Spain recently.

A death toll like this is pretty much unprecedented for a developed country. This is the Climate Crisis. theguardian.com/world/2024/oct…
