This month, we lost a brilliant rebel, scientist and conservationist, James ‘Iggy’ Fox. We dedicate this issue and this Humans of XR to him and his reasons for rebelling. May he continue to inspire us all.

When You’re in a Hole, Stop Digging
14 Feb | Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, London
Rebels arrived at the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government housed in the Home Office building. They brought shovels and coal and အတုခိုးသည်။ politicians as they started mining for coal under the pristine lawn.
The rebels’ offer to clear up the lawn was rejected.
ရည်ရွယ်ချက်မှာ stop the expansion of the Banks Mining Pont Valley open-cast coal site in Bradley, County Durham. Coal is ဝေးနေဖြင့် အ most damaging fossil fuel in terms of CO2 and air quality and can’t be part of our future.
The message was for the Secretary of State, Robert Jenrick, telling him: “If you’re in a hole, stop digging!”
Jenrick holds the power to revoke planning permission for the expansion of the site. In 2018, Sajid Javid, then Secretary of State, rejected similar plans for a mine in Druridge Bay, saying it would have a “substantial” impact on climate change.
Coal is our past, not our future.
Next week, we are bringing the action right to Durham, help us end coal now. ဒီမှာပိုထွက်ရှာမည် နှင့်အောက်။
Disturbing Lawn and Order
16 Feb – NOW | Cambridge
Cambridge rebels have received national-level attention သူတို့ရဲ့နှင့်အတူ တရားမျှတမှုအတွက် သူပုန် campaign. So far, 7 rebels have been arrested. တနင်္လာနေ့မှာ, they hit headlines when they took spades to the front lawn of Trinity College, one of the richests institutions in the UK, and the third biggest landowner.
Rebels were protesting the college’s £9.1million investments in oil & gas companies – they demanded that the University cease all ties with the destruction of the natural world and suggested that perhaps it was time to plant some flowers instead of ‘diversity-dead-zone’ lawns.
The action has inspired massive debate နှစ်ခုလုံး within the movement နှင့် among the wider public. Regardless of popularity, the Cambridge group have certainly helped ring the alarm bells. And it is important to remember that no property was permanently damaged and it will be nothing compared to the the effects of the climate crisis – which will see much of Cambridge underwater by 2050.
Rebels also blocked the entrance to Schlumberger institute on Tuesday, because of its close links to the oil and drilling industry. This accompanies a week-long roadblock မြို့လယ်၌။
နောက်ဆုံးတွင် Cambidge rebels are striving immensely hard to help bring justice to an unjust world, where lawns are treated with more value than the lives of countless people and animals who will perish in forthcoming disasters.
A new outfit for London Fashion Week?
15 Feb | The Strand, London
XR Fashion Action have stepped out once again to put pressure on the Fashion Industry.
This time though, notes the leading fashion magazine Vogue, the XR action was a ‘more colourful affair’, as neon flags and coloured plumes of smoke brightened up the dull grey morning in Central London.
Together with allied movements such as XR Youth, Animal Rebellion, XR Internationalist Solidarity Network, rebels swarmed roads around LFW’s official address at the Strand. To the sound of Samba drums and a choir, rebels staged their own fashion show of ‘locked-on’ rebels dressed in barbed wire and chains, held a block-printing workshop, and a series of inspirational talks.
လိုရင်း: to demand the cancellation of the September 2020 LFW, which, through the promotion of ‘trends’ and ‘seasons’, normalises throw-away culture.
XR further calls on the fashion industry, one of the most exploitative and polluting industries, to rethink its methods of production and ‘immediately start work on an emergency action plan’; and appeals to the publicly funded British Fashion Council to use its considerable influence to back XR’s three demands.
Is XR’s appearance in Vogue an indication that the Industry is starting to take note? We certainly hope so. Until we know so, however, XR Fashion Action will continue to step up the pressure, season after season — bolder, braver, just as creative.
VICTORY: Bristol Airport Expansion Blocked!
8 Feb | Weston-super-Mare, Somerset
West Country rebels are celebrating a landmark victory, following the ြငင်းပယ်ခြင်း by North Somerset Council of plans to expand Bristol Airport. This historic decision followed a three day ‘festival of protest’ in nearby Weston-super-Mare, organised by XR groups from across the region and Bristol Airport Action Network (BAAN).
A huge sculpture of an ostrich burying its head in the sand was installed on the beach next to the Grand Pier. This ostrich was joined by more than 100 rebels ထို့အပြင်သူကို buried their heads in the sand to show their objection to the airport expansion plans.
The festival of protest also included some ‘disco-bedience’, the unveiling of a future-memorial statue celebrating the councillors voting against expansion, and a march through the town.
Council Leader Don Davies ကပြောသည် the committee had considered that “the detrimental effect of the expansion of the airport on this area and the wider impact on the environment outweighs the narrower benefits to airport expansion”.
အဲဒါကိုမြင်ရတာ အားရစရာပဲ။ some politicians aren’t just sticking their heads in the sand and are willing to act now!
The Siege of Troy
7-9 Feb | British Museum, London
ကစီစဉ် ‘BP or not BP?’, this 51-hour occupation of the BP sponsored Troy: Myth and Reality ပွပှဲ resulted in some sensational action at the British Museum.
သောကြာနေ့တွင်၊ 4-meter high Trojan Horse was wheeled into the museum grounds where it stayed until Saturday evening. Trojan မြင်း is the perfect metaphor for BP sponsorship. On its surface it looks like a generous gift, but inside lurks death and destruction.
In the Great Court a new artwork was added ‘Monument’ where body casts were laid across the museum floor.
နောက်တစ်နေ့ 1500 လူ flooded the building in a mass protest against the British Museum’s legitimising of BP’s greenwashing via arts sponsorship, along with its continued colonial practices and exploitation of indigenous populations.
The British Museum must follow in the footsteps of the တိတ်, အ တော်ဝင်ရှိတ်စပီးယားကုမ္ပဏီ, အ အမျိုးသားရေးပြဇာတ်ရုံ နှင့် အမျိုးသားပြခန်းစကော့တလန် နှင့် cut ties to oil sponsors.
James Brown swaps BA plane for HS2 digger
18 Feb | Colne Valley, Bucks
Rebels have set up camp on the roof of a drilling rig about to start work on a 100 foot hole for HS2 foundations. The rig will drill holes above a chalk aquifer that supplies water to 3.2 million Londoners လူဦးရေ၏ (၀.၁%)။
The aquifer acts as a natural filtration system and the drilling will potentially allow toxic waste into the water supply, polluting London’s water. An environmental catastrophe waiting to happen.
You may remember Paralympian James from the October rebellion when he famously sat on the roof of a British Airways jet at City Airport.
There is an urgent need for support in numbers to stop the destruction, ဤနေရာတွင်အသေးစိတ်.

XR UK’s 2020 Strategy
Last week we published our strategy for this crucial year. In 2019, we sounded the alarm loud and clear and demanded change. This year, we won’t sit back and wait for change to happen – we will be that change နှင့်ကိုစတင် building the alternative.
For 2020, we are setting ourselves clear goals in 4 areas: People Power, Vision, Movements of Movements, and Inner Strength. More on these will follow.
အဆိုပါ Read full strategy here, with loads more on actions planned for the year and what it might mean for your local group.

- A budget council to look at cutting major teams budgets and readjusting funds to core needs such as Finance, Fundraising and Tech.
- A mandated group to create a full operational plan for 2020 including the Emergency demand and plans on COP.
- The creation of a Story circle with a range of Working Groups to support our public communications and storytelling.
Full information on decisions can be found in the summary document ဒီမှာ.

XR ၏လူသားများ နောက်ကျောထိပ်
James ‘Iggy’ Fox, 25
James ‘Iggy’ Fox died on 6 February. He was 25, had given up a career in science to join XR and fought hard for the cause, especially for Indigenous rights. Iggy was a burning bright soul and he will be deeply missed. May his reasons for rebelling inspire us all.
“Science alone is silence. For people to act on science’s warnings and apply its solutions, its message needs shouting from the rooftops. Scientists are getting on the streets, refusing to be scribes of the apocalypse.
After seven years studying, researching and protecting nature as a wildlife conservationist, I stopped fieldwork and deferred an MSc in order to rebel full-time.
Because no matter how many surveys I ran, how many turtle nests I protected, or how many young people I educated about ‘sustainability’, the seas kept rising, forests kept burning, plastic kept clogging the beaches, and our data kept showing that wildlife was being decimated.
After joining the #XRSnowflakes affinity group, I realized that as an activist my voice could be far more influential than it had been as a scientist.
On August 13th, six of us were arrested at London’s Brazilian Embassy for taking non-violent direct action to highlight an ecological and human rights emergency. We did it as two thousand Indigenous women marched on Brasilia to defend their lives and lands, and three days after the Dias do Fogo, when thousands of fires were lit to clear deforested land in the Amazon.
I don’t want to go to prison, but I’ll face whatever I need to. My actions aren’t about sacrifice, or arrest for the sake of it. Knowing the science, I have no choice but to tell the truth, and stick to my morals in the face of that truth. I won’t stand by and watch the world burn.”
