I know how hard it is to forego holiday traditions — but it is so very important. Please wear masks, limit the size of any groups, and refrain from traveling. We have to stay apart just a little longer.

Nollaig Shona! #ClimateStrike week 69, Belfast. Last strike of 2020 & #Christmas Start of year: @niassembly declare a #ClimateEmergency End of year: It's clear it was an empty promise, a lie to silence us. But 1 year on and we're not stopping until we see true #ClimateJustice

We did an action for the 5th anniversary of the Paris agreement ⚡️
Climate strike week 67- #FightFor1Point5! It has been 5 years of no action, 5 years wasted, 5 years of destruction of our home. We refuse to be passive. We refuse to be silenced. Together, we are powerful. Hear our cry. We did a candle action at Titanic Quarter today #climate

Authoritarians are fond of using any kind of social unrest as an excuse for a coup or an elimination of opposition. See Stalin’s purges etc etc etc.
You know in The Handmaid's Tale how it's never quite clear what happened to bring about Gilead? Are we about to find out @MargaretAtwood?
