LONDON - Almost 400 scientists have endorsed a civil disobedience campaign aimed at forcing governments to take rapid action to tackle climate change, warning that failure could inflict “incalculable human suffering.”
Wearing white laboratory coats to symbolize their research credentials, a group of about 20 of the signatories gathered on Saturday to read out the text outside London’s century-old Science Museum in the city’s upmarket Kensington district. The declaration was coordinated by a group of scientists who support Extinction Rebellion, a civil disobedience campaign that formed in Britain a year ago and has since sparked offshoots in dozens of countries.
While many scientists have shunned overt political debate, fearing that being perceived as activists might undermine their claims to objectivity, the 395 academics who had signed the declaration by 1100 GMT on Sunday chose to defy convention. “We can’t allow the role of scientists to be to just write papers and publish them in obscure journals and hope somehow that somebody out there will pay attention,” Julia Steinberger, an ecological economist at the University of Leeds and a lead IPCC author, told Reuters.
What does the deep state do when they come to realize that the people don’t buy their crap? Answer: crap their pants.
We need mass disobedience against these leftists.

Give 'em all nice felony convictions to help them with their careers.
I have news for climate change fanatics. Your antics, your campaigns aren't going to make the slightest difference. Climate change is driven by the sun, you know, that big bright thing in the sky!
No we dont
These MF'rs are not scientists. They are paid to spread the lies in order to advance the globalist agenda.
Just a Waste of time. Scientists sending rockets to space, doing all source of things in space etc. They should be stopped too.
The climate is not changing. Hasn't changed in centuries. What we are witnessing is mass hysteria and mental illness.
So these scientists want us to become cannibals? wtf lol
this is not what scientists do. This is what an activist does.
BobbieHill Just asking Are they doing it
Not going to work...its not the government, it's the oligarchs who's money is at stake. They can sit this one out for a long time.
If govt even try to ban polythene bags then these same people will complain why govt forcing people to buy expensive bags... 🙄🙄🙄
Are these scientist quitting air travel to their conferences and driving their cars?
