It’s really pretty simple. We have made it socially acceptable to do nothing and awkward to talk about it. Deniers need to be given the same response as someone making a racist comment or joke: “Not cool! The effects IPCC predicted as worst case, years ago, is happening! This almost getting to the point of flat earth!”
The most proactive action I’ve seen is people glueing themselves to roads. Didn’t I hear in the old days they’d blow up oil pipelines, or was that just in the movies?
Maybe we should all just start riding bikes and wearing MAGA shirts and other GOP dog whistles to dissuade coal rollers and such? Eventually the MAGA crowd will see their own riding bikes and think it was their idea. Cities will then be forced to build bike infrastructure.
there was a movie called “how to blow up a pipeline” in which the protagonists did exactly that, and groups like the ELF existed. I agree that these weird get yourself arrested plans are dumb
