7 #JustStopOil supporters are in prison

Emma Smart, continued to non-violently resist

The response she received from prison staff, has resulted in her requiring urgent medical attention. She is believed to have injuries to her face, head & wrist

#StandWithEmma #NewSuffragettes
All are peaceful in civil resistance to a government that is overseeing the destitution of 40% of UK households & expanding fossil fuel production. Protecting oil driven private profiteering and ignoring the physics

Those jailed knew what they risked. They are not requesting your sympathy — they want you to join them in resisting a Government that is prepared to see the vulnerable mistreated and defend those who are burning away our rights, our freedoms, our security.
When our bodies are the only weapon we have, we will put them on the wheels of the machine.

#NoNewOil is the no-brainer first step to respond to the #CostOfLivingCrisis and the unfolding climate disaster

Today is Sam, Joe and Xavier’s 12th day underground.
Their tunnel stretches 16m long underneath the tarmac of St. Clement’s Way, one of the only two roads leading out of Navigator Oil Terminal in Grays, Essex, “the largest bulk liquid terminal in the UK by throughput volume”.
Cool map courtesy of @DailyMailUK <3
The tunnel under St. Clement’s Way was one of two tunnels in Essex which, along with actions by Just Stop Oil supporters including roadblocks and “tanker-surfing”, succeeded in disrupting deliveries from the Navigator Oil Terminal during the past 12 days.

🧵

@libertyhq @netpol @GeorgeMonbiot @InsulateLove

In solidarity, Just Stop Oil supporters at Foston Hall have started a regime of non-violent compliance with the prison authorities.
At the end of their time in the exercise yard yesterday, all eight woman sat in a line by a fence, went floppy and refused to move. Despite the protest being peaceful, staff responded as if the prisoners had been violent.

The Act of Killing: Putting carbon into the atmosphere and genocide.

With Mark Levene, Louise Wise and Donald Bloxham

"By 2030 about 250 million people may experience high water stress in Africa, with up to 700 million people displaced as a result” IPCC 2022

The question then is, what are our moral responsibilities as human beings

Many novel ways to kill have been developed through history: hand weapons, gun powder, bombs, missiles, gas chambers, now, putting greenhouse gases into the air.
With full knowledge of the mass death it will cause, the powerful decided at COP26 to allow temperatures to rise

This evening, Louis, a 21 year-old supporter of Just Stop Oil, locked on to the goalpost at Goodison Park wearing a Just Stop Oil t-shirt, causing the referee to briefly stop play.

When explaining why he has chosen this action, Louis said: Image
“It's 2022 and it's time to look up, time to step up and not stand by. It's time to act like it's an emergency.”

“Report after report is telling me that my future is going to be dire, and my government is telling me not to worry and pay into a pension.”
“But we have a choice. We can choose to highlight that our climate is breaking down, we can choose to resist this government that is betraying us, we can choose to step up and not stand by.”
