despite already having court ruling against excessive police violence in Extinction Rebellion protests, yesterday 28.5.2024 it happened again and the protest was forced to end early in order to protect protesters from the police.
law says police is there to protect the protesters and their right to protest, but as we know reality is very different. #acab #finland #policeViolence #ExtinctionRebelion #peacefulProtest
police violence in finland.
court has ruled in favour of extinction rebels in a case where police force recklessly assaulted the protesters. for example, pepper spray was sprayed directly on peaceful protesters faces, while protesters sat in the demonstration.
In #Cambodia, when you are a friend or relative of the king, marine conservation stands in the way of your wealth creation.
“The conversion of Ream National Park to a 39,634-hectare (97,937-acre) marine protected area has done little to prevent more than 8,000 hectares (19,800 acres) of the park and Koh Thmei being handed over to Cambodia’s political elite, including relatives of Prime Minister Hun Manet.
“Even in Kampot province, which sits next to Kep, development has posed a challenge to implementing an MFMA, with the boundaries repeatedly being redrawn due to ongoing land reclamation projects. Meanwhile, in Kep, the island of Koh Tonsay – the largest in the MFMA that MCC helped to establish – has been awarded to Try Pheap, a powerful tycoon who was sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department for his involvement in Cambodia’s illegal timber trade.”

Climate Protesters are facing jail time in Australia. This is so warped. I totally agree with the statement made by one of the accused:
“I see the government as criminals here, not me,” he says. “And if I got jailed, I still wouldn’t see me as the criminal. They are the criminals.”

Ja, ich weiß. Ich habe vor 1 1/2 Jahren, #ExtinctionRebelion fotografiert. Das war zum Erscheinen des Berichts. Da war gerade Kriegsbeginn und niemand wollte das so richtig wissen.
Reading about hurricane #Idalia and it seems like such a weird storm. Conspicuously absent from coverage as usual: any mention of climate change. The cowards can't bring themselves to mention it at all.
@Geri I find it appalling.
Britain's blinkered view.
Until it actually affects them and is probably too late, nothing will be done.
And #juststopoil and #extinctionrebelion will be sneered at for causing inconvenience and making a fuss
“Air pollution was cited as the second leading risk factor for CRD [Chronic respiratory disease] deaths worldwide in 2019, accounting for around 1.3 million deaths and South Asia accounted for nearly half of them.”
Progress has varied by geographical location and gender.
“In some regions air pollution has actually overtaken smoking as the primary killer. Household air pollution from solid fuels was the primary risk factor for CRD death rates in Sub-Saharan Africa, disproportionately affecting women.”

Wood-burning stoves, which are usually expensive to install, are increasingly being used in urban areas for aesthetic reasons, and are now the main source of air pollution in many areas.
Life on Earth or your cosy wood burning stove? #ExtinctionRebelion

Sterke reactie van #ExtinctionRebelion en advocaat Willem Jebbink op de bizarre arrestatie van Lucas op beschuldiging van opruiing.
Die blokkade van de A12 kon wel eens heel groot worden.
