Extinction Rebellion

@SW-User There will be no planet for these people to have jobs on. They can get other jobs, I'm not saying that's easy, I've been made redundant myself, more thance once, but given the choice between dying because the planet's fucked and struggling for a while before I find another job, I know which one I'd choose. We need to take this seriously and stop making excuses to divert attention from the most important issue the human race is facing now. It's not going to be easy but we have to get real and tackle this crisis properly and a bit of recycling is not going to cut it. The big polluters must be held to account and made to change. I'm sorry but that is the reality of the situation.

@Egg01 as I'm sure you know it isn't as simple as that. There are people losing homes etc put me in that situation and a choice to save myself/family from immediate issues or do my but for the future I'll look after my family first as I'm sure many would.

@SW-User Yes I know it's not that simple but if we waste time arguing amongst ourselves we'll lose our planet. That IS simple. What is causing people to lose homes I'm not sure what you mean by that? I know that climate change is and it's taking lives in other countries. I put my family first, like you, but we must also learn to think globally, to take responsibility for our actions, actions that cause other people to suffer. We can't bury our heads in the sand just because it's happening elsewhere. Flooding, for instance, is only going to increase as the temperature rises and because it's happening to other people elsewhere we are in danger of being complacent and missing the signs. We could all make changes in our lifestyles to help and keep the pressure on the corporations. It's a complex subject but some of the solutions are simple and we cannot afford to ignore it. Extinction rebellion is not some campaign to make lives difficult for ordinary folk. It's not an attack on our way of life. It's about making the planet a safer, cleaner place for everyone and we all have to stop bickering, look beyond our own narrow existences and do what we can to facilitate change.

@Picklebobble2 And that's problem with the law. Even if the people are in the right, one act of aggression is suddenly worse than anything in the world. 😂

@Grateful4you you could probably describe me as a libtard I just don't fully agree with this particular movement.

Politics are way too divided at the moment in the US and in the UK. Its almost as if you have to nail your colours to the mast.

There are idiots on both sides of the arguments and there are also good arguments to be made by both side but politics are way too partizan at the moment.
