  • Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives
    Conference briefing Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives February 2021 William Finnegan #clClimateFutures cumberlandlodge.ac.uk @CumberlandLodge Foreword This briefing document has been prepared to guide and inform discussions at Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives, the virtual conference we are convening from 9 to 18 March 2021. It provides an independent review of current research and thinking, and information about action being taken to address the risks associated with our rapidly changing climate. In March, we are convening young people from schools, colleges and universities across the UK, together with policymakers, charity representatives, activists, community practitioners and academics, for a fortnight of intergenerational dialogue on some of the biggest challenges facing the planet today. We are providing a platform for young people to express their views, visions and expectations for climate futures, ahead of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, this November. Ideas and perspectives from the Cumberland Lodge conference will be consolidated into a summary report, to be presented to the Youth4Climate: Driving Ambition meeting (Pre-COP26) in Milan this September. We are grateful to our freelance Research Associate, Bill Finnegan, for preparing this resource for us. Bill will be taking part in our virtual conference and writing our final report. The draft report will be reviewed and refined at a smaller consultation involving conference participants and further academics and specialists in the field of climate change, before being published this summer. I hope that you find this briefing useful, both for the conference discussions and your wider work and study. I look forward to seeing you at the conference.

  • Speech for Exeter Cathedral Sunday 8Th September
    Speech for Exeter Cathedral Sunday 8th September My name is Jess Nicholls. I’m a 15 year old climate activist and school student here in Exeter. I’ve been involved in the Fridays for Future school strike movement since January this year. Before this began I was a typical secondary school student who was keen to do well and was focused purely on going to college and university. I’ve always been very politically aware and interested in current affairs and I’m active on social media to keep up to date with what’s going on in the world. One day, I saw a tweet from a Swedish school-girl named Greta Thunberg who was on school strike to raise awareness of the climate crisis. I started to follow what she was doing and when, in January, I heard her speech to the World Economic Forum in Davos, I decided this was something I need to be a part of. Greta’s words were not sugar-coated and hopeful, they were desperate and full of fear. It was refreshing and eye opening. For the first time I saw the raw reality of the climate crisis, that soon the effects will become irreversible – and that humanity’s steps so far are a pale imitation of the true reformation that needs to happen. ‘Our house is on fire’, Greta said, and we must act now. Feeling inspired, I looked into what was happening in the UK. I saw the early stages of a group called the UK Student Climate Network emerging – and so I signed up.

    Tragedy Or Scandal? Strategies Of GT, XR and the New Climate Movement February 2020 Chris Rose, [email protected] www.campaignstrategy.org / http://threeworlds.campaignstrategy.org @campaignstrat (twitter) Content 1. Introduction 2. Greta Thunberg’s Nuclear Umbrella 3. The New Climate Movement And The Green Wave 4. Extinction Rebellion’s Narrative and Organising 5. ‘Nobody is Doing Anything: Nothing Is Happening’ 6. NGO Campaigns are Useless 7. Gloom-Picking The Science 8. Issues With XR’s Social Change Theory 9. Conclusions 10. Postscript Note: this paper is almost entirely based on public materials by or about the Extinction Rebellion movement and its founders, and Greta Thunberg’s movement, in 2018-19. It is heavily focused on the UK, where Extinction Rebellion as ‘XR UK’, has been most active. So where it refers to ‘XR’ it generally means XR in the UK in 2018-19. This is a self-funded project intended for readers of the free Campaign Strategy Newsletter 1 PART 1 - Introduction Greta Thunberg and Extinction Rebellion, or ‘GT’ and ‘XR’ have made a huge impression on the public debate about climate change. Greta Thunberg and the ‘school strikes’ because of the emotional power children and the young over adults and parents, Extinction Rebellion because of their energy and disruptive ‘rebellions’. The celebrity status which massive attention has conferred on Thunberg should not distract attention from the fact that as well as unsettling parental assumptions about climate, she is is an inspiration to young people, and in particular to women and girls, all over the world. Even if she stops now, her legacy will roll on.
