Just like models overestimate future climate, I’m betting they are overestimating the crowds. Oh, and for the entertainment factor, more civil disobedience! From the Guardian:
Hundreds of thousands expected to join global climate marches this weekend
Protests against politicians’ failure to tackle the environmental crisis will take place in more than 90 countries
Hundreds of thousand of people in more than 90 countries are expected to take part in demonstrations this weekend to protest about the failure of politicians to tackle the global environmental crisis.
Organisers say more than 800 events – from marches to street theatre, acts of civil disobedience to mini festivals – will take place in towns and cities amid growing frustration at the lack of meaningful political action over the emerging climate breakdown.
Nick Bryer from campaign group 350.org which is organising the event said: “Politicians are failing. They are still protecting the interests of the fossil fuel companies over the interests of people, despite mounting evidence of the devastation these companies and this system is causing the planet.”

“hundreds of thousands of protesters”? Probably at least one on each square mile of the earth!
It is more like-“this Rump is closed due to lack of oil-based lubrication.”
well i watch SA and Vic news in Aus and havent sen OR heard a thing even via Auntyabc warmist central
how nice;-)
political action over the emerging climate breakdown.
They are becoming seriously unhinged.
Expecting hundreds of thousands spread over 800 events would be very low turn out.
There’s some weird sheet going on here? I’ve heard nothing about this in my city and I listen to a talk radio station everyday at work. They have every phoney baloney activist organization with a sciencie/government name spewing made up data, about pipelines, plastics…ALL plastics! Insane crap about climate change with experts from (add NGO), homes and naloxone for homeless addicts so they can OD from fentanyl in comfort and live, removing historical statues from city hall without telling anyone because if they told us we might be mad, fish farms/lack on wild fish, a bridge took …..8 years to build….the most expensive bridge ever built at 148 ft., sewage plant that pumps it’s by-product umpteen kilometers for billions of dollars, tent city’s that cant be removed because they have lawyers, a ban on ocean going vessels noise and so much more, everyday, same phoney callers phoning in total agreeing it’s bad.
And not a peep about this rally all week till yesterday(Friday) ….. and then theres a HUGE protest over the “climate emergency” and a happy dance about killing the pipeline.
That’s pretty coinky dinky if you ask me? Was it preplanned before the pipeline ruling a few days ago? I mean if this is such a big deal wouldn’t there be a build up a week before so the pubic would know?
The most alarmist station on the radio around here gives a 24 hr notice?
I’m going to take few videos tomorrow .
Oh and a link to the Joe Rogan Experience interview/smokes bud with Elon Musk….. A genus who doesn’t know the differents between a element and a molecule as he explains climate change and his scifi ideas, he’s full of crap.
The “Destroy the World” Klub is alive and well here.
Weepy Bill! Didn’t he cry himself to death?
Their last global protest marches, as I recall, were parades of communist and socialist organizations, with glancing references to “climate”.
Even then, their numbers were not anywhere near predicted attendees or followup press release claims with inflated counts.
In all cases, attendees were obvious and copious users of fossil fuels.
In Brussels one of those idiots cried: “This year we had a hot summer. This cannot be a coincidence.”
Does that guy think we never had hot summers in the past?
Any photo of somebody telling Weepy Bill to fuck off out of the way, I need some petrol?
According to the UN and Population Reference Bureau the estimate for global population 2000 years ago was ~300 million.
Given that not all of them were farming folk, I’m greatly impressed by their huge, enormous carbon footprints. All they had was a few hundred million and some animals, we’ve got 6 billion people, amazing technologies and some very dodgy climate scientists.
This all could have been avoided, if they’d only got off their knee and into the voting booths.
These people are delusional.
Not that much coverage on tv of
acts of civil disobedience to mini festivals –
in germany.
but then, too, not much coverage of
