D O N ' T B U R N OUR F U T U R E
“The PM’s Climate Speech we’ve been waiting for”
from the SLF 2025
Join climate activists Violet CoCo, David Spratt and Mark Carter to view and reflect on the speech — that we all want to hear. They ask the government to safeguard the wellbeing of all Australians by responding at emergency speed to an honest, evidence-based, risk-averse assessment of our climate predicament. The panellists will discuss what that response could actually look like, why it is now necessary, and how it can provide climate-concerned Australians — those now despairing at current, demonstrably ineffective, national climate policy and actions — with a future they can demand.
Remember with an election coming up:
Pick your battles, Don't go alone, The Time is Now!

Our energy bills are torching the planet
March 04, 2025 by Extinction Rebellion
Activists from Extinction Rebellion North and Axe Drax staged a banner-burning action on the day that tree-burning power station Drax announced earnings of over one billion pounds in 2024. The action called for an end to public money to burning trees for electricity.
A spokesperson for Extinction Rebellion said: “Even the government’s own advisors say we need to end burning trees in power stations by 2027. So the fact that the government has committed billions of pounds of public money so Drax can keep doing this until 2031 doesn’t make sense. This decision needs to be urgently revisited.”

Join XRUK at the camp organised by Lakenheath Alliance For Peace, culminating in a blockade of the largest US airbase in Europe:
Where: Outside RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk
When: 14–26 April 2025
Militarism and climate change are catastrophically linked. Weapons-related activity causes significant emissions, and over half of the most climate-vulnerable nations are already in conflict.
RAF Lakenheath is the largest US airbase in Europe and supports operations across the globe, hosting aircraft capable of carrying nuclear weapons with over 20 times the power of the Hiroshima bomb. The base is now getting ready to receive US nuclear weapons, putting the UK in the nuclear front line.
