Inside a German climate protest — as COP27 nears

from Nothing is Foreign

This week, we take you inside one environmental activist group's preparations for a protest to better understand the debate around the more brazen activist tactics in the climate movement. The UN climate conference COP27 will take place in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt starting Sunday. Activists in Europe have been using a variety of more disruptive and brazen tactics to call attention to the climate crisis. They've thrown soup and mashed potatoes at paintings by renowned artists like Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet, and glued themselves to a dinosaur display at Berlin's Natural History Museum. They have also blocked traffic in London, leading to major commuter delays. These more disruptive tactics have drawn anger, leading some to ask whether these disruptions help or hurt the fight against climate change. Featuring: Gilbert Rossier, supporter of Extinction Rebellion. Giordano Cioni, member of Extinction Rebellion's German chapter. Colin Davis, professor of psychology at the University of Bristol and longtime climate activist.
