Extinction Rebellion in Melbourne is going to disrupt Princes Bridge in Melbourne. It is near Flinders Street Station and Federation Square. The intention is to bring to public attention the reality that we are facing a climate emergency requiring no les than an emergency response.

Australia’s political leadership has shown its unwillingness to act. They are enmeshed in the interests of those who make millions out of the fossil fuel industry.

Citizens are left with no other choice but to act, if we are going to avoid a catastrophe. It is up to each one of us to make a contribution. One step is to join with others and block Princes Bridge.

Blocking Princes Bridge is a prelude to the Spring Rebellion being organised by Extinction Rebellion, which will begin on 7 October and continue for a week.
