We are currently witnessing the 6th mass extinction event in our planet’s history.

Modern civilization is under legitimate threat by runaway climate change. This is real.

We are the first generation that will feel the effect, and the last who can still stop it. But we need to take radical action now!

Please consider joining the peaceful rebellion, or any other movement fighting to fix this broken system. There is a very active Heidelberg branch as well.
