Environmentalists announce 'global revolt'

(ANSA) - LONDRA, 26 LUG - Recent suspicions raised by French investigative circles suggest a possible ultra-environmentalist link behind the railway sabotage that occurred on the opening day of the Paris Olympics. These suspicions come just days after the radical group Just Stop Oil announced "the beginning of a global revolt" against transportation and pollution.
    The slogan was featured in a video released in the United Kingdom following an attempted raid (which resulted in nine arrests) at London's Heathrow Airport, the European leader in air traffic. Simultaneously, German activists carried out a similar action at Cologne-Bonn Airport, attributed in the same video to the sister organization Last Generation. The announcement was followed by a successful raid on Frankfurt Airport in Germany, which was shut down for a few hours yesterday, as well as actions in the USA and Canada targeting road and air traffic.
    Just Stop Oil is a campaign advocating for a total ban on hydrocarbons, while Last Generation protests against all forms of pollution, citing them as contributing factors to climate change. Both groups advocate civil disobedience, viewing it as necessary to raise global awareness and hold governments and businesses accountable for the "climate emergency" and the associated risks to the planet.
