Extinction Rebellion

Extinction Rebellion (XR) is a global grassroots movement that began in 2018, advocating for urgent action against climate change and environmental destruction. The group uses nonviolent civil disobedience, such as protests and sit-ins, to raise awareness and pressure governments to take more ambitious measures to address the climate crisis. XR emphasizes the need for systemic change and public engagement, urging people to respond to the climate emergency with urgency. Their actions aim to highlight the risks of inaction and to promote a sustainable future for the planet.
