What does it mean to love this place? What does it mean to love anyone or anything, in a world whose vanishing is accelerating, perhaps beyond our capacity to save the things that we love most? @enjohnston/loving-a-vanishing-world-ace33c11fe0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@enjohnston/lo…

This is #XR - normal people, waking up. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Love and rage from Extinction Rebellion Youth to MPs ahead of PMQs! #PMQs #ExtinctionRebellion #loveandrage

"People ask me whether I’m kept awake at night by the prospect of 5 degrees of warming. I don’t think we’ll make it to 5 degrees. I’m far more worried about geopolitical breakdown as the injustices of climate change emerge as we steam from 2 to 3 degrees." slate.com/technology/201…

Great piece this - going from the big global issues to some exciting neighbourhood initiatives in one piece 🙌👊👍 #CitizenShift

So heartbreaking knowing this is our collective impact on the more than human world :( metro.co.uk/2019/04/24/one…

Thank you to @Ed_Miliband for his question yesterday to Parliament. He said: "Ordinary people have been shut out of the climate debate and this must change. The right response to rebellion on our streets is to produce a revolution in climate leadership". #InternationalRebellion

Meeting on climate emergency in MCR 23/5: climateemergencymanchester.net/2019/04/24/mee…

@DavidWilson6999 Hey we are all doing what we can in the midst of life, and there's no one way. If you decide to go sometime if enjoy talking with you again :)

@vivslack No I am not Viv. I get many of the emails from the local groups such as FOE but haven’t been able to make any meetings due to work. Am also a member of Greenpeace. Really need to make more of an effort tbh.

XR self organising system deciding on next strategy right here right now in Marble Arch with a citizens assembly. Full transparency, inviting different perspectives. Awesome! #XR

We look fwd to hearing from @michaelgove who just told MPs in @HouseofCommons Atlee Suite that following talks with @GretaThunberg, he will meet with . An insider described MPs including @Ed_Miliband thanking #ExtinctionRebellion "actions on the streets, waking us up"

Wow. Maybe we all need a little Greta fearlessness and courage to speak the truth of this crisis... amp.theguardian.com/environment/20…

Upcoming Event: Free showing of “This Changes Everything” 11 May #Manchester manchesterclimatemonthly.net/2019/04/23/upc…

This generation of climate activists is tired of inaction, and they've caught the attention of leaders all over the world. So while this challenge is only getting more urgent, they show us the kind of action it'll take to meet this moment.

Hearing positive news about greta meeting with party leaders and xr and climate change being discussed in house of commons at 3.30 today - fingers crossed its finally being raised on the national agenda. #XR

@DavidWilson6999 PS I love your profile words - here's to all of that.

@vivslack Great that you are there Viv, you and all of the protesters have my greatest respect and gratitude.
