At the end of November Dom went along and joined the first Extinction Rebellion ‘Solidarity with Greta’ event outside the Guildhall in Bath.
Extinction Rebellion is social movement using non-violent direct action to try to avert catastrophic climate change. It is quite new, being formed at the end of October 2018, but is growing rapidly. Many areas have their own groups, and the one in Bath is active and growing quickly.
‘Greta’ is Greta Thunberg, a 16 year-old student in Sweden who has made international news for starting the first school strike for climate outside the Swedish parliament building, inspiring many other school children around the world to follow her example. As well as her school strike Greta has participated in UK extinction rebellion events and addressed the United Nations climate change summit. In December 2018 she was named one of Time Magazine’s most influential teenagers of the year.
Dom spoke to some of the people attending the Bath event and asked them why they were there.
