Well not about climate, but if you take at the Stop de Kindermoord movement, that happened in the 1970s in the Netherlands, you can find some similarities: https://www.ejatlas.org/print/stop-de-kindermoord-stop-the-child-murder-protest-for-children-deaths-caused-by-motor-vehicles
Blocking streets was one of their protest forms, too. And now take a look at the Dutch cities - it’s a pain to drive a car, while walking and cycling are far superior modes of transportation, while there is real life happening. And that’s not even only true for Amsterdam, but also for relatively small cities like Groningen
Blocking streets is directly connected to the issue. It’s a sensible protest.
Gluing yourself to paintings just makes environmentalists look like idiots. It’s doing a disservice to actual environmentalists who protest the companies causing the problems.
Well it’s not like cars (and especially the recent developments in terms of size and number) are not part of the climate issue…
Afaik they dodged the paintings some time ago, haven’t they? Last things I heard from their protest forms were blocked airports, streets and gulf clubs - all are related to the climate
If they dodged the paintings then good. Blocking airports and roads is totally related to the climate crisis. When they block roads they’re making a coherent point.
