“Environmentalists”

The growing backlash against the activists’ shenanigans has even officials in Germany’s Green Party labeling the protests counterproductive.

On one side of the Atlantic, elected officials are urging climate activists who have already blocked highways and vandalized art galleries to get “much more aggressive” if Congress doesn’t take legislative action to curb fossil fuel companies.

In Europe, however, where the activists have to date been even more disruptive than their American counterparts, governments have decided they have had enough and are shutting down and arresting the most radical of these groups.

A maintenance engineer who soaked Just Stop Oil protesters this morning has vowed to ‘do it again’ if they come back – and was sad he could not throw more at them.

Ryan Davis, 60, emptied two buckets of water as half a dozen protesters slow marched in the middle of the road past his flat in Camden, North London today.

The soaking – the most recent example of a member of the public fighting back against the eco-zealots – was captured on video.

Did you wake up alive today? No, that’s not a joke; it’s a serious question. I ask it because exactly five years ago today, St. Greta of Thunberg, the little child who has led the “climate change” movement across the Western world, promised that, as of June 21, 2023, the world would cease to exist.

We must recognize that European environmentalists, and the far left in general, have an enviable ability to communicate. While conservative movements are still too often embodied in what seem like dehumanized caricatures of policies, European environmentalists, apart from a hysterical Greta Thunberg, have given themselves fresh and pleasant faces as spokespersons who state the worst horrors in an appealing, calm and articulate manner.

Just Stop Oil protesters appear to have been confronted by pupils on their way to school this morning as commuters ripped banners from their hands.

About 45 climate activists in three groups began slow marching on roads in Stratford, east London, and Ealing, west London, at about 8am. All three protests were stopped by police by 8.45am.

The Metropolitan Police has revealed that it has allocated the equivalent of almost 13,770 officer shifts in just six weeks to deal with “Just Stop Oil” (JSO) protesters. Primary among the group’s demands is that the government halts all new oil and gas licenses. Its members have been causing major disruptions every day since April 24th. From then until June 8th, London’s police force has spent more than £4.5 million on responding to their actions.

In my previous article, I expressed the view that modern environmentalism resembles a pantheistic religion in that it contains a vision of sin and repentance, damnation and salvation. Indeed, many activists are Gaia theorists who worship ‘Mother Earth’ as a living entity and believe that the world has a cancer, and that cancer is called the human race. Their view of the ‘environment’ is intrinsically anti-human and backed by social Darwinist doctrines linked to nature-worship, elitism, and neo-paganism. Such environmental activists often attack our Judeo-Christian tradition for emphasising ‘the supremacy of a male God’, in contrast to ‘Mother Earth’ in which one must ‘acknowledge the animistic traditions of our ancestors’.

Three climate activists who smashed a glass display case containing William Wallace’s sword have each been ordered to pay a £3,333 fine.

Alexander Cloudsley, 30, a foodbank coordinator, Katrielle Chan, 21, a computer science student at the University of Strathclyde, and Imogen Robertson, 22, said they were emulating the actions of suffragette Ethel Moorhead.

A pair of furious scaffolders rugby-tackled Just Stop Oil (JSO) protesters blocking traffic on a central London road.

Four JSO activists in high-visibility orange jackets stood in the middle of a busy road by Pall Mall on Thursday, refusing to let a build-up of heavy goods lorries pass as part of a coordinated set of marches across the capital.

Two scaffolders exasperated at the holdup tackled the protestors to the pavement, with one handling three activists at once, while the other confiscated a cardboard picket sign.

The modern environmentalist movement is often compared to a pantheistic religion. It certainly contains a vision of sin and repentance – damnation and salvation.

At the Copenhagen climate change summit in December 2009, then Prince Charles, now King Charles III, warned that the survival of mankind itself was in peril and a mere seven years remained ‘before we lose the levers of control’ over the climate.

Europe’s top climate activists are planning a ‘large-scale civil disobedience campaign’ of highway blockages, hunger strikes and disruption at ‘federal properties’ in the US in August, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Leaders from Extinction Rebellion (XR) and other European groups known for their large-scale disturbances are rapidly expanding their US-based franchise, Declare Emergency, to create mayhem on this side of the Atlantic.

In a videoconference, which DailyMail.com attended, the Europeans taught their US allies how to raise money, boost membership and recruit scores of ‘arrestable’ members to spearhead the most aggressive protests.

A motorcyclist refused to be stopped by Just Stop Oil protesters on Monday morning, ploughing through their demonstration in London.

The environmental group attempted to block two lanes of traffic on the A12 at Gants Hill shortly after 8.30am, but faced the wrath of motorists before police ordered them to leave half an hour later.’

A police crackdown has stopped Berlin’s climate protesters in their tracks, with no street blockades affecting the German capital since nationwide raids targeted the Letzte Generation (Last Generation) group last month.

Since late April, the group, using similar tactics to Just Stop Oil in the UK, had blockaded major streets in Berlin and pledged to continue until the government met their demands.
