Extinctio Rebellion protest

The Hague, The Netherlands view map

Hundreds of Extinction Rebellion activists took to the streets of The Hague on Monday (Oct. 11) in an effort to voice their displeasure with the Netherlands’ climate policy and force the Dutch government to make the country climate neutral before 2025.
Dutch police brought the protest to an end on Monday afternoon, explaining that the action of demonstrators was now causing disruption and presented a safety risk for local traffic. More than 60 arrests were made as dozens of protestors chained themselves to a truck and refused to leave.

They look like intelligent people with a passion and are not rowdy. V

A fine wide angle image of this group of protestors. Wide angle....nothing like it to create the feeling of proximity.

A dynamic image of exuberant protest. May their efforts have beneficial results, however small, but spreading fast.

excellent capture that makes clear their dedication and enthusiasm...it is telling that police broke it up too...the establishment does not want to hear their important message..

You captured a great protest and one worthy of the effort,
A very talented group who protest in unison like a Broadway dance number.
It will take time a slow process.
We no longer use plastic bags at the food market bring your own bag.

You really captured the energy. I hope things change but I do worry for our children's future. V

Fantastic, I wish the movement was much stronger here in the USA.

Nice colorful "action" shot.
Hank Vander Velde19-Oct-2021 02:25
Nice, shot of these very expressive and vocal activists Pieter, but lets be real - climate neutral by 2025. It will never happen. Mankind is too greedy and the "not in my backyard" sentiments will, in my humble opinion, carry the day, perhaps to our collective, or our children's, everlasting regret. To achieve this 2025 objective, all nations, especially the rich and those striving to be rich will have to make a 180 degree change in lifestyle. No more huge 4 bedroom homes, fully heated and airconditioned with only two people and perhaps two pets living in them. No more gas or diesel guzzling cars on our roads. Even the clothes these protesters are wearing, mostly made from oil-based synthetic materials, the fibers of which pollute our waterways and oceans. Here in Canada, we can't even seem to just ban plastic drinking straws. It seems that for every plastic commodity banned, several new ones crop up. etc. etc.

Wow - you captured a lot of energy here - hopefully the powers-that-be are listening !! V

Love this shot, the exuberance comes through. I hope that exuberance and energy informs the powers that be because we're running out of time to do right by Mother Earth. V
