The majority of the UK public are terrified about what is happening to our climate. The government can't be trusted to do the right thing to protect lives. They open coal mines and politicians fill their pockets. They wreck the economy, education system and our NHS. All the while they pin responsibility on poor families, people of colour, and new immigrants.

If politicians aren’t willing to put in the hard graft to turn things around, then we will. It’s time we choose our own future.

Because change is coming whether they like it or not. So, it’s time for corrupt politicians to step aside and for the rest of us to step in and unite to survive. It’s time to roll up our sleeves and get on with it.

With 100,000 people at Parliament taking action together, we will become impossible to ignore. The community built there will kick-start the alternative future desperately needed, showing what the true potential of the human spirit is capable of in the face of impossible odds.

 Event by Caroline Carr. A protest for all to highlight the ongoing problem of pollution on our beautiful estuary and beaches from sewage, plastic, environmental hazards and other polluters.
Join our various groups, councillors and partners to share our disgust at the state of our seas.

Our Big Wave 2 at 9:30 am as the tide comes in will share our concerns and ask questions to council, polluters and Anglian Water about what more can be done to prevent this pollution.

The Environment Secretary stated that it will be addressed... Deadline 27 years!

This is not acceptable...

Love walking in the Wolds? Reject new fossil fuel exploration/extraction? Join us on Pilgrimage walking from North Kelsey Moor to Biscathorpe (both sites threatened with new oil exploration/extraction) on Saturday May 7th 2022.
Details
We will meet up at North Kelsey Moor: Moortown House Farm,
(opposite Smithfield Rd junction with B1434) between 8.30 and 9.15 for introduction and photos. We will visit the proposed site before driving to Nettleton Methodist Church on Church Lane, Nettleton (lifts can be offered) where we are offered a cup of tea at 10am, and from where our walk will properly begin at 1030. (You can travel by public transport to Nettleton in time for the main start). This will keep the total distance manageable.

We are walking to raise awareness of the climate emergency and the
folly of extracting new fossil fuels from the heart of Lincolnshire. The
total distance is just short of 20 miles on the Viking Way but you can do
a shorter stretch if you wish. After Nettleton, there will be three
stops/joining points at Walesby (Ramblers Church), Tealby and Ludford.
The churches en route are welcoming us to call in, and spend a few
moments reflecting on the beauty of God’s earth.

Please find the detailed kit list, timings and advice on our website https://www.faithenvlincs.org/events-1.
If you plan to come, or can support in any way, please email us at
faithenvlincs@gmail.com to let us know.

Share this event everywhere, and invite your friends, your family, and your neighbours.

Book time off work from April 9th-17th and be ready to continue in civil resistance in London on at least the first 3 weekends following the 17th.

As our planet passes multiple tipping points and the UK sleepwalks into authoritarianism, what XR does this year affects everything.

With a simple unstoppable rebellion design we will make space for thousands of new people to join us in April and tip the scales once again towards radical change on the climate and ecological emergency.

In April, we call on everyone to take action and demand an end to the fossil economy, for the UK government to immediately stop the harm that is happening right now and end fossil fuel investments. We will facilitate a mass flood of people to grind the capital to a halt, causing maximum material disruption and making meeting the immediate demand politically unavoidable.

Our disruption will not stop until the fossil fuel economy comes to an end.

Our action will take place under a clear, unified message, inviting everyone to come together under one aligned plan.

Will you sit back and do nothing? Or will you step up?

We will rebel until we end the fossil fuel economy.

We will not be bystanders.

Let’s step up, April 9th 2022.
