September 6th, 6 supporters of Dernière Rénovation (Last Renovation) sprayed gallons of orange paint across the sidewalks outside the Council of Ministers (the main organ of the French government).
They had t-shirts which read, “Your Crimes, Our Deaths.”
France is currently under an intense heat wave, and yet they are still not acting on climate. Last Renovation urges them to consider a “Renovtation Thermique” which would insulate all houses in france by 2040.

Four civil disobedience activists (including one rebel) blocked the road to the Burning Man festival. It generated hundreds of media stories.
Another rebel glued his feet to the floor of Arthur Ashe stadium and stopped a US Open semi-final game for 49 minutes. It generated thousands of media hits worldwide, inserted the topic of climate emergency where it is least seen - the sports pages. Would you like to be a part of this new wave of climate actions, where a small number of brave people can make a big impact? Come learn from these two rebels. It's not hard. It just needs a bit of pluck, a bit of creativity, and a straightforward message.

“What are our responsibilities at this time? Because of the fossil fuel industry, we are facing horrors of a magnitude never before experienced in our existence. Our government continues to lead us to the edge of no return. We must stand up and defend ourselves. No one else is going to do it. It must be us, if we want to live.
Our methods must be disruptive, and they must be nonviolent. Our actions are evidence-based, credible, and we have a plan. The only thing missing at this point in time is YOU!”
