Rising Up Extinction Rebellion hasn't added a story.
This is an emergency. We believe it is our duty to act.
Together, let's unite and insist our governments take action for us,
for our children and for all life!
Extinction Rebellion is the fastest growing climate &
ecology non violent direct action movement in history.
The level of support from individuals and communities has been
unprecedented. Money and energy
are being spent by our UK working groups organising, reaching
out and scaling up. 20% of the funds raised here will support the
Internationalist Solidarity work of Extinction Rebellion UK, and 80%
will go to the various UK working groups.
The first International Rebellion in April woke up individuals
and communities globally to the converging climate and ecological
crises. In the 7 weeks following the start of the Rebellion, the
number of Extinction Rebellion members globally doubled to reach
134,000 (94,000 in the UK). We have grown to a total of
351
groups (130 in the UK), in
59
countries across a total of
248
cities & towns. Worldwide, ordinary citizens are forcing
more and more jurisdictions
to declare a Climate and Ecological Emergency.
It’s clear, we’re having an effect. However, our government
responses are still inadequate and not proportionate to the urgency
and magnitude of the threat.
This crowdfunder helps give rise to the next rebellion and
ensure
our demands
are met. We have the government’s attention, now we demand
they act!
The next chapter of Extinction Rebellion has begun and our
success relies on your generous gifts of time, money, skills and
energy.
Every contribution is vital and making a donation is one very
useful way to participate.
If you are from a country outside the UK, you might want to
consider supporting the efforts of your national branch.
Love and rage in the face of extinction.
Until we win!
