Hi Bluesky people, I’m Roger, founder of Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil.

I’m in prison for 5 years for resisting the carbon regimes.

I worked as an organic farmer in Wales for 30 years before unprecedented rains destroyed £100,000 worth of my crops 🧵

The atmosphere is getting heated. Tensions are rising. I’m standing in a corner of an inner city public hall during a community assembly. The room is filled by about 150 people, sat around small tables. The assembly is about to set a demand of the local council....

I was interviewed by the Swiss @RepublikMagazin about my shift from rebellion to revolution. The German version is here. An English translation will be shared via my blog.

Part conventional memoir, part manifesto, it’s an attempt to think clearly and honestly about what it means when a society knowingly creates mass death, and then uses its legal and political systems to punish those who tell the truth about it.

How do we face the next decades of collapse without losing ourselves? My prison podcast, The Spirit of Revolution, explores the hidden force that has carried people through impossible moments before. Not hope. Not plans. Spirit. Our quiet weapon against empire.

It's official we are heading into the biggest shit-show in human history. The U.N says there is no ‘credible pathway’ to staying under 1.5C (October 2022). Revolution is now inevitable, a great danger

That meeting changed the social geometry of the space overnight. Councillors and MPs turned up without being invited — not because we asked nicely, but because power pays attention when people start organising at scale.

Theory only matters if it survives contact with reality.

My thoughts on why movements fail, why some suddenly work, and what has to be consciously designed if we want to win in the conditions we now face.

I’ve just released a 3-hour practical guide on how real political change actually happens — based on history, organisation, and what I’ve learned since prison and organising in Brixton.

This is my most important work in months. Please give it a watch and share.

The elites are not failing accidentally — they are participating in a death project. They are driving a system that destroys itself, destroys life, and destroys the conditions for civilisation, even when warned by their own institutions and scientists.

This is a fairly polite version of my views on Christmas....as ever it is nice to get new books though
The holidays are coming. Which means a lot of plastic crap and the annual ritual of pretending everything is fine while the world burns.

Or—you could give a book. Specifically, two books that don’t lie to you.

Power doesn’t just control what we do. It controls what we think is possible. Chapter 8 of Spirit of Revolution is about breaking the mental citadel that keeps us obedient. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

1/3. What this article is saying is that 60 metres of sea level rise is effectively inevitable.
Oh no ... actually it says:

"The research shows that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet’s long-term collapse becomes virtually certain under high emissions."
