Reclaiming the Streets - Extinction Rebellion Podcast Special 2.1

The Extinction Rebellion Podcast is back with a series of podlets (mini podcasts) from October 2019's International Rebellion in London. On Monday the 7th, Extinction Rebellion managed to take 11 sites across the city. Our first podlet is a snapshot of that - reclaiming the streets. Hear from the people who were there and part of a speech by Weyman Bennett, from Stand Up To Racism. Extinction Rebellion has three demands. 1) Tell the Truth - Government must tell the truth by declaring a climate and ecological emergency, working with other institutions to communicate the urgency for change. 2) Act Now - Government must act now to halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025. 3) Beyond Politics - Government must create and be led by the decision of a Citizens' Assembly on climate and ecological justice.
