I recently saw protestors on BBC World camping on a crossroad in the center of London, this might be the conclusion?
I'd like to have seen the docu.
But netflix has the new series Our Planet with the revered Sir Attenborough too which is very good.

That is where we were. I plan to watch Our Planet soon. Attenborough presented this documentary too. He's really seen how things have changed and obviously feels he has to speak out.

We need to shout about reform to save our environment, politicians turn a deaf ear and blind eye on the situation currently. Too much money involved.
Well done going out and being counted, spreading the word that needs to get shouted about.

Peaceful protest is one way to get the attention of politicians. We need many more people to get involved and show it is the will of the populace.

Here in South Africa people are getting together to physically clean rivers and beaches. Good to teach younger generation about the mess we have created with plastic, toxins in water and in the air.

Local efforts to clean things up are great too. The old saying of 'act locally, think globally' still applies. The Steem project @cleanplanet is a cool initiative.

Unfortunately nothing will change. Money rules today and this protest isn't going to matter one bit. I agree something needs to change but this wont work.

So what are we to do if we believe nothing can change? Revolutions still happen.

Yes revolutions do happen, but this doesn't look like a revolution. Firstly the people need to vote the right people into Parliament. You just have to look at the politicians today and they are horrendous. How weak is the politics when you have a guy like Corbyn leading the opposition.

The next elections will be interesting and neither of the big parties is impressing. I dread Farage doing well out of it.
Actions like this get more people involved in politics and that should be a good thing. My daughter is already getting political and her generation have to have their say. They have the right to be angry about what a mess we have made.

I agree and hopefully someone steps forward sometime soon. It needs to be thrown upside down to sort it out. Farage will only do well if the others are weak. It unfortunately may need that to get better and to fix the system.

Thank you for being there! Each of us should be doing all that we can.

We need to thank those who camp out all night and risk arrest.

Obviously! And they need to see support from people like you. There is a part for everyone to play.

I don't think i feel as strongly on these matters as you, perhaps i should watch those documentaries you mentioned, btw did the man in his pants get arrested?

I think we should all be worried about the future. It may be far worse than most people think.
I saw that guy later, so I assume he's okay. The police were only going for those actively blocking the road.

Perhaps you're right, the people that are glueing themselves to stuff is getting a bit out of hand too lol

I was there - Will be going again next week and staying until i'm dragged away. It's a shame that most sheep, sorry, I mean people, are happy to walk towards extinction, I for one have decided to make some changes to my lifestyle, No more animals will I consume, I shall be selling my car also. If anyone wants a white KA 05 plate, let me know. These may seem like small things, but it's the least I can do. And a point for those who think there is no short term gains from for example only allowing electric motor vehicles to be driven, I say this, Bach, His music is for quiet playing/ listening, This world is too loud due to motor vehicles, electric cars will see the return of great music like Bach.

I was kind of wondering how many protests happen on any given day in London. It is interesting that you mention that. Looks like you had a great day supporting a worthy cause!

I expect they get marches to parliament or Downing Street all the time. It's part of our democracy. Not sure how much good it does, but it helps to get media coverage and these protests have had plenty
