Climate activists have struggled to engage politicians..
^I’m not happy about this statement in the Guardian.
The UK along with many countries across the world signed agreements, or were these frankly hollow promises, they/we can’t or won’t uphold. That is what we and our children should be demanding..

The point of Extinction Rebellion (well, one of the points) is to bring together the converted, to build a movement, and then to engage decision makers and create influence.
There might well be other and or better ways of solving the problem the scientists tell us we are facing, but who is doing them?
Something has to change, and I don't see anyone else even having the discussion let alone the balls to go out there and mobilise.
