Why legal tools? That doesn’t seem to be working at all. Perhaps we need to start thinking about “illegal” means, such as property destruction.

One could easily argue that property destruction of nonliving machines is not violence. Violence is the harm or destruction of living organisms.
Therefore, it is machines that are violent, as they are physically destroying and killing the ecosystems for profit. And destroying them is an act of self defense.
There are even studies being done to show just how much CO2 is prevented from polluting the atmosphere from acts of eco-sabatoge. Examples: offset.labr.io

“Therefore, it is machines that are violent”
That’s incorrect as machines have no agency. Of course, violent people can use machines to do violent acts.
If they have no agency, wouldn’t that mean that breaking them is nonviolent?
Legal tools means setting the rules of society to end the extraction and importation of fossil fuels. I don’t think we’ve had the power to actually do that yet in any large country

In if itself, property destruction won’t have much of an effect & may reduce public support.
The aim is to inform people about the science of #ClimateChange (environmental science in general), the effects, & how governments, some less than others, are planning on causing (“investing” & aiding & abetting) more ecological degradation.
Basically, we need to get peoples attention off of the mainstream media circus. So, recommend #mastodon & try to inform people.
