Extinction rebellion
The Avalon Project is a part of the global social movement Extinction Rebellion. Join this non-violent mobilization against climate change and species extinction.
REBEL FOR LIFE!
The Avalon Project joined the global social movement Extinction Rebellion (XR) in November 2018. This movement had its origins in United Kingdom, with a call to action made by about one hundred academics. It is a campaign of civil disobedience, massive, peaceful and sustained over time, whose objective is to pressure the political class and activate society before the climate collapse and the ecological crisis (see XR webiste).
After the largest act of peaceful civil disobedience in recent decades in Britain, on 17th November, 2018, XR has become a global movement of resistance and non-violent pressure on governments against climate change and the extinction of species, including ours.
The volunteers of Avalon are participating in the organisation of XR at the level of the Spanish state. In addition, we are coordinating the actions of this movement in Granada. On the other hand, volunteers from Avalon are collaborating in the organisation of protests in other places in Spain.
Declaration of Extinction/Rebellion
Declaration of INTERNATIONAL NON-VIOLENT REBELLION against the world’s governments for criminal inaction on the ecological crisis.
All groups and networks joining the International Extinction Rebellion will agree to these two essential points:
- To maintain nonviolent discipline both externally and internally. To be respectful to opponents in order to win over many who will need to defect to our side if we are to be successful. To organise in an open democratic manner respecting the right of all participants, in all their diversity, to be treated with respect.
- To coordinate our efforts so that we act together with the same basic aims (see above) at the same time. This will involve mass civil disobedience in our countries’ capitals. THE DATE OF THE REBELLION IS THE 15th APRIL 2019.
