#sorry if this is the second of such posts you've had to read today#I've had a sudden epiphany and that's that given the choice between Exxon and an apathetic government on one side#and someone throwing orange powder on some grass but who will pressure those in power into taking climate action#I've realised that as 'annoying' as people might think just stop oil and extinction rebellion are#I'd much rather have annoyances than be boiling in my bones#annoyance >> a dead planet; like what are these guys going to do when we're all orderly and good but boiling alive? What then?#Haven't thought that far have they? Well I don't want to. And so my sympathies are now with climate protesters.#Also sports are the tamest things for them to be disrupting; I would be 100% chill with them reminding oil company owners#that 1000 people have more power than 1. Be totally fine with that#sports#climate action#sport#tennis#Wimbledon#just stop oil#current news#UK politics
