Klimaaktivistgruppen Extinction Rebellion, som er kendt for at lime sig fast til bygninger og smadre ruder, har meddelt, at de skifter strategi. Ifølge deres pressemeddelelse vil de i 2023 fokusere på ”attendance over arrest and relationships over roadblocks, as we stand together and become impossible to ignore.”
Den 21. april 2023 planlægger Extinction Rebellion at samle op mod 100.000 mennesker for at omringe det britiske parlament.
I pressemeddelelsen skriver Extinction Rebellion blandt andet:
”As our rights are stripped away and those speaking out and most at risk are silenced, we must find common ground and unite to survive.
It’s no secret that those in power are hoarding wealth and power at the expense of ordinary people, while ignoring the consequences of their greed. Emissions continue to rise, but they couldn’t care less. But people do care, and changes to democracy that free and empower the voices of the people through Citizens Assemblies could balance the tables and bring about the positive societal tipping point we all need.”
