Neither the media nor the civil society have reacted strongly enough to trigger the change that is needed. While we as Europeans view ourselves as reasonable, grounded problem solvers, we are in fact ignoring the extent of the problem, and not acting on it the way we should \u2013 and it is becoming bigger, and growing more unmanageable, if we keep ignoring it!<\/p><p><strong>Why are we doing this?<\/strong><\/p><p>Statues erected in the public space express recognition of a political, economical, artistic influence on our society. They represent people who symbolise a form of power. By blindfolding them, we want to denounce how influential personae keep ignoring the reality of the climate and biodiversity crises as well as the transformative solutions proposed in the IPCC reports. Some statues of scientists are gagged, as symbol of their scientific alarm raising being ignored for decades.<\/p><p><strong>Why should you care?<\/strong><\/p><p>The most effective means of achieving systemic change in modern history is through non-violent civil resistance.
