XR SEQ Podcast
AN Extinction RebellION PODCAST
WE ARE IN A CLIMATE EMERGENCY
Life on Earth is in crisis. Our climate is changing faster than scientists predicted and the stakes are high. Biodiversity loss. Crop failure. Social and ecological collapse. Mass extinction. We are running out of time, and our Government has failed to act.
We have a moral duty to rebel—whatever our politics.
OUR DEMANDS
TELL THE TRUTH
Government must tell the truth by declaring a climate and ecological emergency, working with other institutions to communicate the urgency for change.
ACT NOW
Government must act now to halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025.
BEYOND POLITICS
Government must create and be led by the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice.
This episode explores the ten principles of extinction rebellion from a range of different voices within the Brisbane XR movement. Since this podcast was created, the decentralised nature of XR has seen many more groups in the region spring up. XR SEQ has been replaced by XR Meanjin/Brisbane, working alongside XR Brisbane West, XR Brisbane South, XR Brisbane North and XR Ipswich.

EXTINCTION REBELLION AUSTRALIA PAYS RESPECT TO THE TRADITIONAL OWNERS AND CUSTODIANS WHO LOOKED AFTER THIS LAND FOR TENS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS. WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS LAND WAS STOLEN FROM THEM AND THAT SOVEREIGNTY HAS NEVER BEEN CEDED.
