Extinction Rebellion Tower Hamlets Declare a #ClimateEmergency in #TowerHamlets!

[Free Alaa @FreedomForAlaa]

Members of the @stopshopping_uk choir passed by the sit-in last night to give some musical solidarity. #FreeAlaa

Inspiring! https://t.co/pnB3DYgJrw

[Scientist Rebellion @ScientistRebel1]

Scientist Rebellion and @AufstandLastGen invite all climate groups to join a coalition which will cause serious non-violent disruption in Germany this autumn

In London on Mon August 15? Come and hear amazing scientist Chris Jones, a chemistry teacher turned climate activist, speak at our Community Climate Talk @StJohnBethGreen 6.45-9pm and find out how you can help change things. @hexisplus @XRTowerHamlets @XRLondon @XRHackney

[XR Trade Unionists @unionsXR]

If you are able to join us on this demo next week please do and bring banners. Londoners are facing real cuts in the bus services and as usual it's the poorest in society that will be hit hardest. Also fewer buses = more pollution/fossil fuel use poisoning us and our children.

[XR Tower Hamlets ⧖⃝ @XRTowerHamlets]

Will you join the conversation?

Come and hear from climate scientists and members of our local community who will be sharing their experiences of organising and taking action:

Monday 15th @ 18:45 St John's on Bethnal Green

A thread 🧵

[XR Trade Unionists @unionsXR]

XR Trade Unionists joined @ASLEFunion picket lines all over the country because in a #ClimateEmergency, we need good public transport & jobs.
Then @XRBristol joined the ASLEF picket after ASLEF leader spoke at XR rally outside Temple Meads 💚

[Stop Silvertown Tunnel Traffic and Pollution @SilvertownTn]

The tunnel would increase traffic “between 15,000 and 30,000 new car, van, and HGV trips every day through some of London’s already most polluted and vulnerable communities. We have to stop this tunnel. It makes absolutely no sense. It’s indefensible.” https://t.co/hzRR8HA3u3

[XR Trade Unionists @unionsXR]

XRTU were everywhere today in solidarity with the RMT strike. Here’s a selection of the best images of our flags and banners but our XR trade unionists appeared at lots of other picket lines too. Post your photos in the comments. #SupportTheStrikes

[XR Tower Hamlets ⧖⃝ @XRTowerHamlets]

Earlier today @SilvertownTn and XRTH calling on @LutfurRahmanTH and @TowerHamletsNow to publicly oppose the Silvertown Tunnel outside todays council meeting!

It's not too late to cancel the project and invest in green infrastructure ✊💚

[Stop Silvertown Tunnel Traffic and Pollution @SilvertownTn]

Ask @LutfurRahmanTH and @TowerHamletsNow to oppose @SadiqKhan's toxic, climate-wrecking Silvertown Tunnel. We are holding a lobby outside the town hall 6.15 - 7pm. Mulberry Place, 5 Clove Crescent, E14 2BG. All welcome.

We absolutely CANT BARE VANGUARD

activists from XR disrupted the offices of US investment giant Vanguard by writing messaging on their naked bodies.

Vanguard is the second largest investment company in the world and has over $300 billion in climate wrecking fossil fuels.

As people who are worried about the climate crisis we're inviting you to a talk all about it and what can be done with NVDA

If you're concerned about the climate and interested in doing something about it this is for you!

[XR Tower Hamlets ⧖⃝ @XRTowerHamlets]

All around the UK, local people are getting organised.

It’s time to stop feeling powerless and alone, and get to know other amazing local people who want to make a difference too.

This is our chance to be a part of something big – and there’s a role for everyone.

Yesterday Tower Hamlets rebels joined the RMT picket line at Liverpool Street.

We unequivocally support the striking workers and their demands!

Fair treatment of workers in essential for a just transition to a green future.

[XR Trade Unionists @unionsXR]

@unionsXR @XRebellionUK rebels at the King’s Cross rally this afternoon. Banner sums up why the climate movement needs to be supporting the strikes.

Great turnout + inspiring speakers, with amazing solidarity from so many sectors like the NHS, unis, cleaners or Post Office

[XR Tower Hamlets ⧖⃝ @XRTowerHamlets]

Spotted! Cable car on Monday after @SilvertownTn handed in their letter to the GLA urging them to stop the Silvertown Tunnel!

The tunnel promises to worsen air quality in one of Londons most deprived neighbourhoods worsening peoples health and the climate crisis.
