Climate Activists Seek New Path and Name

The climate activist group formerly known as the 'Last Generation' is undergoing a significant transformation. The group, which gained attention through dramatic blockades and demonstrations, is renouncing its name but not its mission. This decision stems from the urgent need to address accelerating global warming and the potential tipping points that threaten the planet.

Spearheaded by spokesperson Carla Hinrichs, this transformation involves a strategic shift away from disruptive actions like street and airport blockades. Instead, the group aims to focus on fostering social justice, crisis preparedness, and mobilizing thousands for peaceful, democratic movements. The activists plan to build a new identity that emphasizes mutual support, social cohesion, and robust climate protection measures.

This evolution marks a departure from the group's previous mantra, "Who doesn't disturb, isn't heard." By broadening their approach, the activists hope to inspire more diverse and creative forms of protest, moving beyond the controversial tactics that have defined them thus far.

These changes are part of a broader strategy to adapt to the rapidly changing climate landscape. By redefining their identity and objectives, the group seeks to create something new and impactful, aiming to mobilize masses in critical moments for a sustainable future. As they lay the groundwork for this new chapter, the activists remain committed to their cause, determined to contribute to the global fight against climate change.
