This 'book' aims to explain what Extinction Rebellion is and why we do what we do, along with our aims, methods and strategy.

Live 'Intro to XR' talks on Zoom

The talk takes place every week on a Monday, Tuesday or Sunday evening (see schedule) from 19:00-20:30 including time for questions and discussion.

View the schedule and register for the Intro to XR talk on zoom here.

The content of this Intro to XR 'book' (that you are reading now) reflects the talk and vice versa, with the difference that there is more discussion and room for questions in the talk, and a few more links to resources (and further information for people interested) here.

Support

Within XR we acknowledge that our increasing awareness of what we're all facing can be very difficult. However for many of us, making connections with others experiencing the same thing helps hugely. Joining in, and trying to be part of the solution, is empowering and liberating. Action brings hope!

XR is a family with lots of support available when it’s needed. You can find these resources in a number of places, but the Care and Respect page is a good place to start.
