If you were alive during the Suffragette movement, would you have supported their rebellion? Would you have gotten involved? Most people think they would. Well, an even greater movement is here, rebellion for our very survival. Do you support those people? Will you get involved?

Working together in communities is both a natural human trait and the only way we can get through this.

Phrases like 'Dog eat dog' & 'Survival of the fittest' are pushed by a capitalist society where value & success is measured solely in terms of individual materialistic gain. If we're going to survive the coming decades we need a new mantra which celebrates our connected-ness.

Protesters have been arrested after blockading and climbing aboard a fuel tanker outside the Exxon Mobil terminal in Yarraville. It was part of a week-long climate change campaign, diverting police resources to deal with their antics. @EmilyRice28 #9News

I think everyone needs to slow down. Why are we all rushing everywhere all the time to do everything? Why aren't we working 6 hour days, 4 days a week? Why are all our schools so harsh on our students? What is the end goal? So we can destroy our planet at an ever faster pace?

"If governments are serious about the climate crisis, there can be no new investments in oil, gas and coal, from now – from this year” - Dr. Fatih Birol, @IEA The facts are clear we cannot afford to invest in producing more fossil fuels. If governments refuse to act, we will! twitter.com/XRebellionUK/s…

2 tankers now block Grays oil terminal disrupting 300+ loads a day at a key supply point for London’s fuel distribution network. Why? "We've been here 2 hours, we intend to stay... we're under 25 & we care about our futures." Just Stop Oil Fossil fuels are fucking our future.
