How Extinction Rebellion Became A Global Climate Movement | Troublemaker 

That was probably the point of XR. It is run by the state and big oil in order to divide the green movement.

Some of us have been campaigning 'respectfully', 'through official channels', 'via our political representatives' etc for decades. Literally DECADES. And yet we are where we are. We've gone past the point of effective political debate. Now it's serious, we're in the shit and the response to get effective change has to be disruptive.

Sure, be disruptive. However, be disruptive towards your target. Big Oil, Big Pharma, Corporations, Billionaires and the like. Don't disrupt the lives of people who are sympathetic to your cause, and do their own small things to effect change. Don't prevent ambulances from getting to hospitals, kids getting to school, people getting to work. I would have liked to call you an asshole, but I am a respectable person, unike you who lives in a self sustaining echo bubble.

@@kevinguyan522 word salad is not considered a proper response.

Who?ExxonMobil?

@@tidtidy4159 Don't be as stupid as them. His little business was brought down by weather not climate. All the activists are well off, and I'm alright jack. They don't know enough to protest a subject out of their league! Give it up you numpties !

You quote suspicious Observers as your source? A thoroughly debunked pseudo science channel Come on, you can do better. The internet is awash with proper scientific peer reviewed journals about climate change and you choose to listen to crack pots. And you convince yourself you're some authority. You also play both sides of the fence to hide your ignorance. Disappointing

@@desertstar223 It's always the angry, ignorance that attacks, twists and assumes. Sad. I sight Ben Davidsons work in compiling supporting scientific papers and documentation as a STARTING POINT. It's obvious you've looked no further, beyond accepting something someone told you. Again, sad. I provided simple FACTUAL evidence of what is currently happening on our planet. And I could drag you through history and provide an overwhelming amount of scientific evidence and fact, HOWEVER, it's not my job to educate you. So get off your high horse, stop being a jerk and put up or shut up. Say something intelligent and or back up your claims. Eeeeesh, Honest.

Maybe, suspicious observers might not be the best place to start, I would suggest NASA climate change, an excellent source of measurable data. Incidentally I'm not well off or middle class, I'm a small farmer and have been all my life. I agree with you on carbon credits and off sets. Its so business interests can do business as usual.

@@honestarizona4301 Pseudo intellectuals are the same breed as flat earthers. They will NEVER admit they're wrong or at least acknowledge they don't have all the facts Facts are their enemy. So, further discussion is pointless. I rest my case. I have better things to do. Like, me and my community going to plant 10 more trees today. We've already planted 230. What have you done for your planet today?

@@tidtidy4159 I too, was raised on a farm. I'm nothing more than an old microbiologist with a penchant for commonsense and a passion for study. MANY things are presented to you as fact from the scientific community, when in reality they are nothing more than theory. EXAMPLE, you have been taught your whole life about Darwinian theory of evolution. They tell you through the magic of abiogenesis, you have evolved over time. IF, you really believe this, then you are willing to be lead by those who are superior to you genetically/intellectually. If you believe this, then you believe you are a random accident that has evolved from a monkey. And this is complete crap. ALL men/women are created EQUAL. Now lets focus on farming. As a farmer, I'm sure you've read a few farmers almanacs yes? Are you prepared to tell me you don't believe in climate cycles? Or tell me solar maxims and minimums are not real? And the sun does not effect our climate? Lets stay grounded in reality, Honest.
