Hi John,
Is your New Year’s resolution to take more climate action in 2025?
If so, here’s ten reasons why taking action with XR can make a difference.
|
1. We target the 1% (who create as much Co2 as two-thirds of the planet) - like protesting against private jets at Farnborough last January.
|
2. Our actions work - like Insure Our Survival in February which persuaded major insurers to quit fossil fuel projects.
|
3. Our actions unite climate and nature groups - more than 350 organisations joined Restore Nature Now march in June.
|
4. Our voices are heard - like our demand for no new oil and gas which became a government pledge in July.
|
5. We reveal the future - like Upgrade Democracy in August where we showed the need for a Climate and Nature Citizens Assembly.
|
6. We creatively disrupt - like Insure Our Survival in October which engaged insurance workers with climate disaster scenes.
|
7. Our local groups care for their communities with hundreds of actions each year - like at Horse Hill, Surrey, in October.
|
8. We offer training for volunteers, and anyone joining an action in person or at home.
|
9. We’re a welcoming and supportive network.
|
10. Behind all the actions are even more rebels, planning, creating, and supporting, like the video team! So sit back and take a fast-paced fly through 2024. To help build some energy back, as we enter the New Year!

Love, Rage and Rebellion,
