TRUTH
The Government needs to come clean and admit to the public how bad our situation is. We've smashed through the 1.5 degree threshold that was suppose to keep us safe and we now face a rapidly accelerating crisis that threatens ordered civil society and our entire way of life. Large parts of the world are becoming uninhabitable. Extreme heat and flooding is making growing food impossible and forcing people from their homes. Our healthcare systems, our economies and our safety and security are threatened. We urgently need to phase out oil, gas and coal for good, in order to minimise the harm to our families and communities.
Community
We need world leaders to get on with the job of protecting us, but they are prioritising endless growth, corporate profits and the wealth of billionaires over the wellbeing of ordinary people. It's easy to feel powerless when challenging the interests of the powerful, that's why we need to come together and push for the next victory- Just Stop Oil by 2030. We will do this by getting to community events, getting trained in nonviolence and when we are ready, joining our local group to take action.
Action
History has shown that rapid social change has only ever come from everyday people disrupting the status quo. This is how civil resistance works: applying nonviolent pressure until we force change to happen. It's how the Freedom Riders forced an end to segregated buses in 1961. It's how disabled people won accessible transport in the nineties. It's how Just Stop Oil won no new oil and gas licenses in 2024 and will continue to win until we've relegated burning oil, gas and coal to the dustbin of history. No-one's coming to save us, we need to step up and do that for ourselves.
