      because its like smashing your head against a wall trying to convince the general public that civilization is trully in dire straights.
      These people are trying to help by raising awareness, but they are constantly shot down and belittled by the mainstream media, which again is just another tactic from the establishment to keep the status quo and keep their profits soaring far beyond what any human would reasonably need in not one lifetime but hundreds of lifetimes.
      The fact that billionaires exist whilst we have people freezing to death in their homes and struggling to feed their kids is absolutley criminal, but we are told by the media that these are the kind of people we shold look up to and aspire to be like. It's just wrong, and this is why these people come off so passive agressive is because they are trying to keep their cool when the press is trying to poke them to get a rise.

    I think part of the problem is a failure of imagination. What you want is attention to the cause; it isnt disrupion for disruptions sake. But these tactics are either established activist memes, or are just seen as childish spectacles.
    I don't know what the answer is because I havent sat and thought about it long enough, but you need something creative and novel that is going to emotionally provoke in the right way; in a way that causes curiosity and compassion. Traffic jams and throwing paint IS NOT HELPING.

      I think you have hit the nail on the head when you say "childish spectacles." I wish they would educate the public rather than infuriate them. Perhaps fundraise for their cause and start an ad campaign explaining what the issues are, but that perhaps takes too much work than antics. I hear about the pranks but I don't remember what was its intended purpose. I remember wasting broken eggs in the market or paint strewn on fine art over protected glass but I haven't a clue why. Theatrical protests should have a meaning aside from a tantrum.

    She's right, a lot of people don't agree with the wholesale disruption and for good reason. It doesn't help anyone at all, there is a difference between being seen and being heard.
    I get what the Just Stop Oil dude is saying, but it's not about emotionally connecting with the cause, I'd say most people these days are quite accepting that climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing our society, but frankly most of us are not privileged enough to be able to step out of their daily responsibilities. Most have other people depending on them, bills etc. Just dropping everything to go and protest, is not an option for the large majority of people. So causing disruption for these people is doing nothing for the cause. Seeing a protester in the road on the way to work isn't going to make them stop what they're doing and join, I just don't understand the logic. There are less disruptive things you could do for more publicity.
    Lastly, Just Stop Oil need to send someone who can interview better. James had a lot to say, but kept interrupting and wasn't really answering questions directed at him, so he didn't come across very well. In addition a lot of what he said was for shock value, making sure he used dramatic sound bitable phrases in the hopes he will scare some people into supporting the group.
    Laura did a much better job, she was level headed and answered her questions directly whilst redirecting the viewers attention to relevant information. In contrast James was argumentative and emotional. I'm sure he's a valuable member of Just Stop Oil, but his idealism I fear makes him poorly suited to PR in this instance.

      @@patricklee6206 When examining the statement in relation to climate change, it can be interpreted as a critique of the collective response to the issue. The masses, representing the general population, are suggested to turn away from evidence that does not align with their preconceived notions or personal preferences. In the context of climate change, this could refer to the tendency of some individuals or groups to deny or downplay the scientific evidence indicating the existence and severity of climate change.
      The mention of the masses deifying error and being seduced by illusions could be seen as a reflection of the influence of misinformation or propaganda campaigns that seek to create doubt or confusion around climate change. Such campaigns can be powerful in shaping public opinion and preventing meaningful action from being taken to address the issue.
      The statement also suggests that those who supply illusions or false narratives about climate change can easily become the masters or controllers of the masses. This could allude to industries or interest groups that have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo and resist efforts to mitigate climate change. They may promote alternative narratives or create doubt about the scientific consensus, allowing them to maintain their influence and profit at the expense of effective action.
      Furthermore, the statement implies that those who attempt to challenge or dismantle the illusions surrounding climate change become victims of resistance or opposition. Individuals or organizations advocating for climate action or raising awareness about the urgency of addressing the issue often face pushback from those who are unwilling to accept or confront the reality of climate change.

      @@Truth_to_Powers Well, well, you really have it bad don't you?
      The fact that the earth is going through one of its periodic climate changes is irrefutable. However the fact that it is going to wipe out the human race is quite another matter.
      Not all scientists subscribe to the armageddon scenario as a result of the earths climate changing.
      Over the past 60 years we have had many predictions by the great and good heralding the demise of civilisation.
      For example in 1989 the UN a senior environmental official opined that, GLOBAL WARMING WILL WIPE NATIONS OFF OF THE FACE OF THE EARTH IF CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT ADDRESSED BY 2000.
      This would be caused by rising sea levels. Also that he added that shifting climate patterns could bring back 1930s dust bowl conditions to the Canadian and US wheatlands.
      Instead global farm production actually rose and more than 1 billion people also rose out of extreme poverty due to economic growth. Yet here we are over 30 years later still being subjected to the same overblown hysterical theories.
      That man was by the way, was Noel Brown director of the New York office of the U.N. environment programme. This same official also claimed that as a conservative scientific estimate the earth's temperature would rise between 1 and 7°in the next 30 years.
      Yet in actual fact between 1989 and 2019 according to NASA it rose by 0.5°Celsius.
      Another example of climate change extolled by a professor Kenneth Watt and endorsed by another scientific luminary British Science writer Nigel Calder that the earth was heading for another ice age and that the earth would be 11° colder by 2000.
      That prediction was made in 1975.
      Back to global warming. In 2006 Al Gore whilst promoting his film "The Inconvenient Truth" said that the earth only had 10 years left before the world would reach a point of no return. Here we are in 2023 some 17 years later being fed the same propaganda with the date for this tipping point being kicked further down the road.
      These are just a few of the overblown predictions of armageddon down the years. The environmentalists are of the opinion that they have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements whilst playing down any doubts they may have. One such proponent of this strategy was Stephen Schneider a professor of biology who said in 1989, " each of us has to decide what is the right balance is between being effective and being honest".
      What is closer to the truth about apocalyptic global warming is it's a means of gaining more government control and fear about the environment is one of the tools that is being used at the moment.
      Communism and Socialism have lost respectability, so it's being repackaged as Environmentalism.
      It's a bit like a watermelon green on the outside and red on the inside.
      In conclusion it is self evident that the planet is undergoing climate change, but it has ever been thus.
      In the 1500s in the UK the climate was like it is in the Mediterranean at present. In fact HenryVIII's body exploded in the heat whilst it was being transported up the Thames to Greenwich Palace. Fast forward 200 years The Thames was frozen during winter and people used to ice skate on it. Fast forward another 200 or so years and the UK is warmer again.

    It seems like on these shows the main argument against the protests is circular reasoning, essentially saying "We shouldn't like it because people don't like it". I hear a lot of arguments like that "the public don't like them" or "they are having the opposite effect" instead of giving your own personal reasons why you are against them. The media is extremely good at making you annoyed on someone else's behalf. They put the focus on the tactics instead of why they are using those tactics. Or even as abstract as whether the tactics are effective. To go even more abstract you could discuss whether the conversation over the effectiveness of their tactics is effective. These mind games and distractions are a perfectly understandable response when faced with global catastrophe, as it is a very difficult thing to fully process and allow into your comfort zone. As for the media, most of the billionaire-owned media conglomerates have vested interests in industries like the oil industry. I don't know about ITV but Sky news certainly does, along with every other news company parented by Comcast Corp or News Corp. It isn't a massive conspiracy but there will be systems which favour the hiring of certain types of news presenters and the reporting of certain types of stories. The companies have to do this if they are to compete with one another. It's easy to forget that all of this content is the result of huge companies fighting over our attention. They no doubt have an enormous impact on public opinion. So when you hear "public opinion" being brought up in one of these debates, doesn't that seem a bit circular?

    The two issues are what the protests are about and where and how the protests are done; when asked about the latter, the protesters talk about the former. It's irritating that whenever Kate and Adil ask about the manner of the protests, and whether or not they are designed to anger people or gain support, their guests talk about the reason for them. The point is made early by the guests what the situation they believe we are in is (climate emergency, government, etc), so it is said and doesn't have to be said again and again. The interview moves on to the manner of the protests, events targeted and how effective or ineffective the guests believe those protests are in gaining public support, but the guests keep repeating why they are doing them. Probably most people agree with them to some degree about the situation and the reasons for protesting, but there is an issue of whether or not they are wise about which events it is relevant to their cause to disrupt and whether the nature of their protests is likely to turn people against them or to gain support. When the protesters are challenged about that, they revert to repeating their motivations.

      Climate change movements that have failed in the last 40 years plus
      Anti-nuclear power movement (1970s): The movement aimed to highlight the environmental and health risks associated with nuclear power, but its efforts did not lead to a complete abandonment of nuclear energy.
      Amazon rainforest protection campaigns: Numerous movements have sought to protect the Amazon rainforest from deforestation and illegal activities. Despite international attention and advocacy, deforestation rates have continued to rise, resulting in significant loss of biodiversity and indigenous land.
      Kyoto Protocol (1997): While the Kyoto Protocol was a significant international effort to address climate change, many argue that it failed to achieve its desired impact. Several major countries, including the United States, did not ratify the agreement, and overall greenhouse gas emissions continued to increase globally.
      Copenhagen Climate Conference (2009): The conference aimed to establish a successor to the Kyoto Protocol but fell short of producing a legally binding agreement. It was criticized for its failure to secure substantial emissions reductions from major emitters.
      Keystone XL pipeline opposition: Various environmental organizations and indigenous groups campaigned against the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, which would transport crude oil from Canada to the United States. Despite widespread protests, the project was eventually approved and completed.
      Dakota Access Pipeline protests: The movement opposed the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline in the United States, which threatened water sources and sacred lands of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The pipeline was completed despite the protests.
      Global climate strikes (2019-2020): While the climate strikes organized by young activists like Greta Thunberg garnered significant attention and mobilized millions of people worldwide, some argue that they did not achieve the necessary policy changes and concrete actions to combat climate change.
      Paris Agreement (2015): Although the Paris Agreement was hailed as a milestone in global climate action, some critics argue that it has not delivered the necessary level of emission reductions and lacks binding enforcement mechanisms.

I don't know whether you have seen farmland but it's hard clay and virtually no organic matter. if you look at the land around the farm edges you'll see a much better soil and it's because it is largely untouched.
