Extinction Rebellion Global

TELL THE TRUTH In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. The climate and ecological crisis is already with us. We need immediate action to avoid unspeakable human suffering and irreversible damage to the natural world. #TellTheTruth #ExtinctionRebellion

Are you ready? Many systems we rely on are fragile and interconnected. A single breakdown can ripple across society. Here’s a helpful free resource. rebellion.global/xreadiness/ #ExtinctionRebellion #XR #XReadiness #ElNino #ElNiño 3/3

Be ready. “El Niño conditions will pour fuel on the fire of a warming world” and the “impacts will hit even harder, travel even farther, and cross borders with devastating speed.” António Guterres, UN Secretary General #ElNiño 1/3

This is about a thousand more people than died in the attack on the World Trade Centre in 2001, yet hardly a mention in news bulletins. Extreme heat is becoming so frequent to the point where it’s no longer noteworthy, while some say we should slow down on emissions reductions…

The fossil fuel industry is fuelling human rights abuses, economic hardship, & environmental destruction, but communities worldwide are fighting back and demanding a just energy future. We join the #KickPollutersOut Global Week of Action to #KickTotalOutOfAfrica #StopEACOP

Hundreds of millions of people are facing excruciatingly hot days and nights in India and Pakistan as heat and humidity combine to make life almost impossible, and not possible for some. theconversation.com/too-hot-too-hu…

🔥Heatwaves are sweeping across South Asia. India, Pakistan and Bangladesh have seen temperatures above seasonal averages, with some areas reaching 45–50°C. Intense heatwaves can pose serious health, social, environmental and economic risks. Stay informed: wmo.int/topics/heatwave

Climate breakdown is real, a betrayal by the powerful: governments, the exploiters of the land, those with vested interests in fossil fuel industries. They knew, they know now. People are dying today, because of their denial and failure to act in defence of Life. Make #ecocide law. #RebelForLife.

The pace of climate change has doubled, just as political and business commitment to tackling it has crashed. Our children, grandchildren, and their descendants living in a much more hostile climate - will see this as history’s greatest betrayal. newscientist.com/article/251836…

This article says climate change is “believed to have played a role” in the UK's extreme heat this week. As a climate scientist, let me fact-check that. First, climate change is not a religion. No belief is required. It is about evidence. And the evidence has been crystal clear for more than two decades: climate change is making heat waves hotter, longer, more frequent and more dangerous. In fact, science has advanced far beyond saying climate change merely “played a role.” Today, we can quantify how much more likely and how much hotter climate change made a specific event. Here's the bottom line: Climate is changing. Humans are responsible. And we are experiencing the impacts now. That’s the bad news. The good news is that solutions already exist, and the majority of people care - 89%, around the world! But meaningful action depends on helping people understand not just what is happening: we need to know how it affects our lives (this heat wave being example A today) and what we can do about it. That’s the opportunity this reporting missed. bbc.com/news/articles/…

LED bulbs cut energy-per-bulb by 90%. So demand shrank, right? Wrong. We lit up bigger homes, brighter streets, 24/7 cities. Total electricity use for lighting is flat or rising. This is the rebound effect and our civilization is doomed unless we address it.
