++ Rwanda, 6.30am local time, 6th April ++

🧵Two weeks ago the second action of the main day of global #scientistrebellion kicked off in Rwanda

(a few hours after the actions in Australia, which you can read about here ➡)

1/
David, SR Rwanda: "No way we can combat this problem without basic literacy on climate science"
In a session at ACJ Institution, Muhanga City, participants learned about basic climate science, the IPCC report, the lies, the suffering and injustice of the climate emergency.
2/
Youth shared real-life stories of the effects of climate change in their communities and homes. They discussed how to spread awareness and become active in the climate rebellion.
3/
Is this such an unreasonable statement? We just don't want irreversible chaos!

4/ (but keep scrolling for a reminder of messages from @RwandaXr )

Seit dem Weltklimabericht @IPCC_CH vom 4. April wurden gut 200 Menschen wegen friedlicher Aktionen des zivilen Ungehorsams festgenommen in Deutschland, darunter auch 33 Wissenschaftler*innen aller Disziplinen.

@AufstandLastGen und SR fordern: Stoppt den fossilen Wahnsinn. 1/
Die Wissenschaft ist vollkommen klar: wir sind in einer Klima- und Ökokrise, wir müssen jetzt sofort aufhören, neue fossile Infrastruktur und Projekten zu fordern. Es kann keine neuen Investments und Ausbau von fossiler Infrastruktur geben. #letztegeneration

Kleine Erinnerung: eine Flut lässt sich nicht in Einzelhaftzellen für 5 Tage einsperren.

Mann kann keine Dürre mit hohen Geldstrafen schweigen lassen.

Es gibt keine Handschellen, die ein Feuer stoppen.

With clear intimidatory intent, @SapienzaRoma uni🇮🇹 sued 4 rebels staging a demonstration yesterday at the uni during our day of global action.Rebels were sued for "interruption of public service", which can lead to 7 years in jail and a €3000 fine #ScientistRebellion🧵1/n ImageImage
The allegation is ridicolous, as there were several other access and exit routes to the building the demonstators were blocking. It clearly shows @SapienzaRoma intent to silence dissent. #ScientistRebellionStrike 2/n ImageImageImageImage
About 10 participants taking films and holding banners were also sued for participation in unauthorised meeting. 3/n ImageImage

Berlin, gestern Nachmittag. Wissenschaftler*innen aus der ganzen Republik haben vier Stunden lang eine Brücke am Reichstag blockiert, sich zusammengekettet + angeklebt in einer Aktion des zivilen Widerstands gegen eine Politik, die lügt und uns alle in die Klimahölle treibt.
Heute werden die Wissenschaftler*innen wieder in Aktion gehen, weil wir nicht mehr tatenlos zuschauen können, dass unsere Forschung und Warnungen in den Wind geschlagen werden - was höchstwahrscheinlich zum Untergang der menschlichen Zivilisation führen wird.
"Ich sage Ihnen, dass wir unsere Kinder in einen globalen Schulbus hineinschieben, der mit 98% Wahrscheinlichkeit tödlich verunglückt."

Hans Joachim Schellnhuber,
Gründer des Potsdam-Instituts für Klimafolgenforschung (PIK)
