Scientist Rebellion NYC Has Taken Over the Museum

Scientist Rebellion NYC want people to know that the American Museum of Natural History has a greenwashing problem. We brought the real climate science into AMNH, using DIY non-damaging Clingons.

Are you a scientist or expert alarmed by the rampant spread of dis- and misinformation online?

Extreme weather is becoming the new norm. Yet, Big Oil remains largely unchallenged, evading the scrutiny it deserves.

SRTI introduces a new initiative in our ongoing fight against this misinformation across social media: the Rapid Response Action Team – or SRRRAT, for short

Learn more about SRRRAT and how can join us.

This Dec 9th SRTI and Climate Defiance along other climate groups demanded that Senator Padilla leverage that oversight relationship with the Department of Energy to push for action to stop new LNG export terminals.

We call on Senator Padilla to use his position to pressure the Department of Energy to deny 6 pending permits for LNG export terminals before the Trump administration takes office.

This past week #CornellOnFire joins Scientist Rebellion’s #DontLookAway campaign asking Biden and Cornell University to declare a #climateemergency.

Cornell on Fire blindfolded and gagged the statue of Cornell founder Andrew Dickson White and adorned him with a message to those in power at Cornell: “The science is clear. Don’t look away. Don’t muzzle protesters. Declare a Climate Emergency.”

#COP16 is here.
Biodiversity serves as the cornerstone of human existence, as we depend on a stable climate, flows of fresh water, effective pest and disease control in agriculture, crop pollination, and various other essential services. All of these are provided by functioning ecosystems that rely on a diverse array of organisms.

However, very few countries are on track to restore nature by 2030 according to WWF new tracker on national biodiversity plans released on September 30, 2024

October 9th marked a national day of action against Vanguard's sustained financing of fossil fuels and climate destruction. On this day, Scientist Rebellion joined EQAT and XR Phoenix o voice our demands to Vanguard in Scottsdale, AZ.

Arizonans are among the first in the US to suffer the direct consequences of a heating planet, consequences that are undisputedly the result of ever-increasing extraction and burning of fossil fuels — financed in large part by The Vanguard Group.

Scientists joined Extinction Rebellion Boston activists today in disrupting business as usual at the Massachusetts State House by locking themselves to the gate. Activists are demanding the banning of all new fossil fuel infrastructure.

The escalation comes after a 14-month daily stand-out at the Massachusetts State House with no response on behalf of Governor Maura Healy or legislative leaders regarding the #climatecrisis.

As the climate crisis worsens, affluent Western governments are increasingly repressing climate protests. A recent Climate Rights International report reveals that activists globally are being arrested, charged, and silenced for merely exercising their right to free expression.

We urgently need to stop the expansion of fossil fuels and push back against the growing wave of greenwashing & disinformation. It's unacceptable that the fossil fuel industry continues to hide behind a façade of sustainability while worsening the climate crisis.

Canada and the LNG industry promote the economic benefits of fracked "cleaner energy," but the UN states natural gas is a fossil fuel.

There are 7 LNG export projects & 1 infrastructure project in development, labeled "carbon bombs" by climate experts.

First Nations warn: "These projects compromise our quality of life for short-term money."

Military operations are an under-analyzed factor in the climate crisis, amplifying the suffering of vulnerable communities. Despite being underreported, militaries contribute nearly 5.5% of global emissions, according to the UN.

War and occupation's impact on climate is inseparable from its impact on people.The genocide in Gaza is also #ecocide. In the first 60 days after Oct 7, Israel's military actions generated over 281,000 metric tonnes of CO2, equivalent to burning 150,000 tonnes of coal

According to the 74th edition of the "Statistical Review of World Energy" report, Canadian emissions have increased for a 3rd consecutive year. This trend has placed Canada at the bottom of the G7 group since the pandemic began.

With less than seven years remaining, emissions cuts required are now unprecedented in Canada. This is the harsh reality of delaying climate action: The longer we wait, the steeper the climb becomes.
