We are beyond the point of no-return. Nothing any of us can do about this.

There are too many humans on the planet. And Gaia is fixing to correct the imbalance.

Sad my kids are going to have to live through the troubles. But is is inevitable.

lerlo is right. Just getting arrested does nothing for the cause. But what you are getting arrested for might help. For example if the protest costs polluters maybe they will consider mitigating their polluting.

My being arrested will have zero effect on climate change

@ToolGuy do you seriously believe that trump and other deniers care how many people go to jail?

@ToolGuy Activism works. Going to jail might make you feel good about being a martyr but it's the protest in numbers that works--not the jail part.
