Extinction Rebellion is planning two weeks of protest across London.
But those involved with Extinction Rebellion say the future of the planet depends on it. "We have left it so late that we have to step up in a semi-miraculous way to deal with this situation," said co-founder Gail Bradbrook.Instead, it wants the government to create a "citizens' assembly", made up of ordinary people. Its members would decide how to solve the climate crisis, with advice from experts.
Protesters screwed chairs to the ground and chained themselves to one another to show support for nations most affected by climate change. One of its biggest protests was in April 2019, when some of London's busiest routes were brought to a standstill. That led to more than 1,100 arrests - most on suspicion of not following police instructions to move.
