Extinction Riot Announce Nationwide Bus Tour… Utilizing Diesel Buses
Extinction Riot is planning a significant disruptive marketing campaign beginning this September, so as to add to all the opposite crises the nation is dealing with. Their plan contains an occupation of London, a nationwide bus tour, mass civil disobedience and a giant march in London subsequent Spring. Right here’s the timetable:
9 September: Portray streets with posters and flyers
10-13 September: A 3-day occupation at Marble Arch
14 September – 13 October: A “fleet of insurrection buses” will journey the nation
14 October: Return to London for “Nonviolent civil disobedience”
Guido was satisfied by one of many solutions within the Q&A on their web site relating to the bus tour:
Are the buses electrical?
No. Electrical buses are very costly. 50% of a autos carbon footprint (electrical, petrol or diesel) is locked into its manufacturing. It’s extra environmentally sound to make use of diesel autos for so long as attainable so long as they’re operating effectively than it’s to purchase new electrical autos.
So it’s, based on Extinction Riot, “environmentally sound” for Guido to drive his 3 litre diesel Jaguar. Travelling the “size and breadth of the nation” in diesel buses to struggle local weather change sums up the mental and ideological incoherence of the swampies…
