As the summers grow hotter, and the winters grow colder, and the storms grow more intense, eventually Earth's surface will become uninhabitable. Meanwhile, afterlife technology is keeping score on whether you're helping or hurting the world. Popular games involve killing people.

I thought hippies were extinct🤔 Maybe there’s a breeding programme😬

They're probably not wrong, but remember the problem is all the money being spent to lobby for legislation and messaging that negates climate science, not the choice of words of a few protesters. Think of how much this message is worth to them. They can't afford to lose.

They need a good shower

Extinction Rebellion climate change campaigners to 'pause' London protestPolice have made 831 arrests in connection with the demonstrations across London, and 42 people have been charged. Arrest them all! Pause? Climate change isn’t going to pause. Are you telling me they actually don’t want to protest anymore because they have other things to do? Despicable... Making the most of the good weather, I assume.

Opinion: Extinction Rebellion, Attenborough and the Green Party have revolutionised the climate change fightSo successful has this movement been that their demands are well enough known to trip off the tongue of every frustrated London cabbie No they haven't. They've promoted a scam. Strange MSN will talk about ExReb demos until the sunsets in a chemically induced mess, yet gives no mention of the Geoengineering chemtrails that goes on above our heads every day. by spreading outright lies....they should revoke his knighthood. The problem I have with these climate change protestor, is that they are preaching to the choir. They need to take their message out to the third world and developing countries not waste their time here in the UK. We are doing our bit, more than most other countries.

Opinion: This is how Extinction Rebellion has proven climate bores entirely wrongPassing the buck is one of the few tools left in the climate change denier’s belt. That, and attacking an inspiring 16 year old girl with Asperger’s because her mum was on Eurovision Instead of climbing on trains ER climate protesters should take their protests to China and the US. Not sure the authorities would tolerate the same disruption
