Scientists risk arrest to sound climate alarm

Paris (AFP) – A loosely federated network of scientists in more than two dozen countries plan acts of civil disobedience starting this week to highlight the climate crisis, members of Scientist Rebellion told AFP.

Their non-violent actions are timed to the release Monday of a landmark report from the UN's climate science advisory panel laying out options for slashing carbon pollution and controversial schemes for extracting CO2 from the air, they said in interviews.

Scientist Rebellion targets universities, research institutes and major scientific journals, prodding them and their staff to speak out more forcefully on what they describe as the existential threat of global warming.

"Scientists are particularly powerful messengers, and we have a responsibility to show leadership," said Charlie Gardner, a conservation scientist at the University of Kent specialised in tropical biodiversity.

"We are failing in that responsibility. If we say it's an emergency, we have to act like it is."

Starting Monday, the group hopes to see "high levels of disobedience" with more than 1,000 scientists worldwide taking part in direct non-violent action against government and academic institutions.

Oh BS. You don't get arrested for parroting the global marxist deep state Great Reset agenda.

The only problem with this statement is that the term scientist is clearly a lie. By doing this they are mere frauds and poseurs.

Throw them in jail without charges for years. That is what the Biden admin does to people who engage in civil disobedience.

That will shut them up.

Anyone who's traveled in China recently (as I have) knows that efforts in the world's advanced,civilized countries/regions to "save the environment" (The US,Europe,Japan,etc) are doomed to failure.

For every coal fired power plant that they shut down China brings 10 online. For every "polluting" car that they take off the road China adds 10 polluting pieces of cr@p to their roads.

Exactly. Plus, last time I checked, the climate alarm has been blaring 24/7/365 for at least 2 decades now.

These are not real protests.
This is state sponsored protests against western civilization.
What could go wrong?

Didn't 1984 show footage of "demonstrations" against what the state had deemed undesirable, and "demonstrations" thanking the state for the new restrictions that would be good for all?

Dr. Richard Lindzen, MIT- Read his works if you are really interested in this subject. He is the most knowledgeable person on the climate hoax.

The Climate Crisis is the lack of money flowing to Climate Alarmists and Violent Climate Insurrectionists.

Exactly. This article wants people to believe that world leaders are against them speaking out, when in fact they probably are aligned very closely. After all, the narrative has been; follow the science. Only the science they want to follow is propaganda.

For the first 4.5 billion years, we were just lucky. I guess.

"...options for slashing carbon pollution and
controversial schemes for extracting CO2 from the air..."

Right:

GET RID of CO2 from the atmosphere!

Plants need / 'breathe' CO2 (carbon dioxide) -
and 'exhale' O2 (oxygen) - which all animals need to
breathe and survive, obviously.

The dang plants are ruining the place!!!
SO ALL PLANTS MUST BE EXTERMINATED!!!


/SSSS - END of Super-Sick-Silly-Sarcasm.

But seriously - the 'Media Political Scientists'
appear to be demented due to syphilis of the brain.
They must be ignored and STOPPED before they destroy
the Earth and the human race.

YES - It is THAT serious.

PS: Could it possibly be that the atmosphere of the
earth has been regulated over the millenia by this
O2 / CO2 plant / animal symbiosis? Umm, Yeah...

Would it be a good idea to muck around with this
mechanism - even if we could, and understand it well
enough to do it and NOT screw it up? (Which we DON'T)

Ummm, NO.... IMO
