Yes, we broke the law as climate change activists. And this is why | Dan Glass | Comment is free | guardian.co.uk
Like them, we aren't robbers, kidnappers or terrorists. We are secretaries, parents, cooks, community workers, architects and saxophonists. [They're not even climatologists?!] We are part of a growing movement of concerned citizens who are prepared to put our bodies in the way of dangerous high-carbon developments.
We do so because we believe this is justified, proportionate and necessary in the face of catastrophic climate change, and that the negative consequences of our actions are more purposeful than the consequences of continued inaction. Sometimes, we believe, we have to break the law to disrupt lawful activities that are harming the prospects of future generations.

These poor ignorant people are being lead to the ocean like lemming. There is no scientific evidence that the greenhouse gas effect exists. They are believing in a fairy tale. This is not unusual- politicians have been making fools of people for centuries.
