#RefuseToFly

I held on to my flat in Kiel until the end because I thought I'd get my job back. After the legal settlement has been reached, it's time I handed over the keys & definitely turned the page to a new chapter in my life. I have no regrets and would #RefuseToFly over & over again, even at the cost of losing my job.

My legal battle to regain my job
@kielinstitute starts tomorrow. Inevitably, it involves a night train. In Papua I learned that there isn't a conflict that doesn't have a resolution.
I'm confident I can win back my post. And so are 9,000+people https://innn.it/klimaforscher-entlassen
Most importantly, I'd like to enshrine into law that an employee can't be fired for their conscientious objection to flying. #ClimateCrisis #RefuseToFly #ClimateAction #GlobalWarming #GlobalWarmingInThePipeline

"What can I do to alert the public that we are deep in climate crisis? Civil disobedience - and losing my job to #RefuseToFly - are some answers". Thanks Marc Zollinger for the article @NZZ and Bianca Litscher for the portrait. Auf German: https://magazin.nzz.ch/nzz-am-sonntag/

RT by @JKSteinberger: "After 72 days he is back home [...], finishing the trip with just €10". @ndmlemoine for following the story of my 28000lm #nofly trip from to to reduce my carbon emissions, and its underlying reasons.

"The really crazy thing is to do nothing".Thanks www.profil.at for telling my experience of losing my job to #RefuseToFly.

"A dormitory with over 100 people, bedbugs, the pain of insect bites.You forget all that when you look at the ocean and the waves. You feel the wind and are far away from everything." & that is nothing compared to losing the crops giving you food, as is occurring to PNG people.
Please read what #Slowtravel makes possible.

Very pleased with @ Nature Carriers publishing my story of being fired for not willing to fly back to my research institute home - when there was no need to. I do hope that my experience will give employees the right to #RefuseToFly on conscientious objection grounds.
Jess Schrage (@ Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation, Bergen Uni) for commenting that "such behaviour should be encouraged, not reprimanded.”
