Several hundred Extinction Rebellion activists perform a dramatic protest in Whitehall, London - the seat of government - pouring gallons of fake blood outside the Prime Minister's residence in Downing Street after a solemn ceremony and calls for politicians to take seriously the threats posed by global warming and biodiversity loss to the planet. The blood symbolized that of the children lost through unabated climate change.
A smaller group later headed to Oxford Circus - the heart of London's shopping district - and performed some hilarious songs in cacophonous style before causing traffic diversions by blocking the roads.

The Australian federal court recently ruled that the federal government has a duty of care to protect future generations from climate harm, and the federal government is seeking to appeal this ruling.
Extinction Rebellion staged an action at the front of Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg's electoral office to demand that the government take its commitment to protecting future generations seriously. Two activists scaled the roof and remained in place for close to six hours as police were reportedly reluctant to make any arrests. Several activists also glued on the front door entrance to the office.

On October 7, world-wide, a group calling itself Extinction Rebellion congregated to bring attention to the climate crisis by disrupting traffic. The idea was to block a bridge during rush-hour.
The Extinction Rebellion people in Calgary were very polite during their take over of the Louise Bridge near Kensington. Most of the time they stood in crosswalks with their signs and banners when drivers waited at red lights. They were almost entertaining with one guy dressed as The Joker and another guy dancing with a hula hoop. Occasionally they followed the XR program and stopped traffic during green lights but then some of them went car-to-car offering Timbits during their disruption.
The police were there mostly in an observational capacity, watching that everyone stayed civil. One officer took photos of protesters. But he also photos of drivers who edged too closely to the demonstrators or seemed overly aggressive with their car horns. And there were a few. One pedestrian shouted at them that there was no climate crisis. An old lady asked me what was going on. When I told her it was to draw attention to climate change she scowled and asked, "During rush hour?!"
