Invite for Spring Rebellion
Rising up together - blossoming together! After a stressful winter full of deprivation, we are angry but also euphoric to get together in actions and to live and grow our community. From Lützerath, the place of destruction, we are addressing the place of decision making. Build cliques, get organised for the long term an come to Berlin for the Spring Rebellion!
Instead of blooming, the life on our planet is dying faster than ever. More and more species of animals and plants going extinct every year. But our existence relies on a natural diversity. A healthy biodiverse forest stores CO2 and purifies the air, Insects pollinate the fields and ensure our food supply. If we don't stop the sixth mass extinction and more and more species are disappearing, we will endanger our food security and our survival. But instead of protecting biodiversity, forests are cut down, monocultures are established and areas sealed. This destruction is happening here on our doorstep and even more so by multinational corporations in countries of the Global South.
But what do I care about species extinction if I can no longer pay my electricity and gas bills? They are outgrowths of the same problem. As energy prices soar to unaffordable heights, corporations are making record profits. These corporations do not serve the common good, but only the profit interests of the richest people. Theirs companies RWE, Volkswagen and Bayer or Nestle, Coca-Cola and Total are destroying our planet with their business practices. Their "green solutions" are only slightly modified business models that ensure that the richest and most powerful remain in power. With a strong influence on politics and public perception, they block the necessary changes in the agricultural, transport or energy transitions with their monopoly positions. For example, although generating electricity from renewable sources has become cheaper, they continue to invest in coal and gas. These multinational companies will not voluntarily give up their profits. They have the power and will not give it up unless we force them to. Governments watch this happening too often, let themselves be persuaded by greenwashing and intimidated by threats from lobbyists. In doing so, the federal government repeatedly violates the Basic Law (Art. 20a) and international contracts (Paris Climate Agreement).
In the Spring Rebellion, we are reversing the balance of power. In Berlin, at the center of power, as a democratic civil society, we prevent multinational companies and the government from continuing their deadly business undisturbed. We make the invisible - "backroom lobbying" and species extinction - visible. With creative actions of civil disobedience we oppose the exploitation of people and nature.
We demand that the government declare a biodiversity emergency and convene to draw, representative citizens' council that decides what measures are needed to solve the energy and environmental crises fairly.

Come with us to Berlin, April 12th- 17th!

What happened so far?
At our Rebellion in Autum 2022 we have shown clearly that this political system fails on across the board. In Spring we go one step further and we want to set the starting point for a resilient, compassionate society.
