As of 2019, the full EU was 6.4% of ghg. The US was 11. China was 27%. China is more than the USA plus EU plus India. You can almost fit in Indonesia too.
Protestors risking criminal charges to fight a system that at best would barely slow world collapse even if it fully ended TODAY, in a reality where Biden says we'd need "at least" another decade, deserve to be prosecuted.

The Smithsonian’s National Zoo & Conservation Institute website just says they “can live 40 to 50 years,” so I don’t have answers to your questions, unfortunately.

As long as you aren’t in Florida the govt. usually leaves prosecution decisions to the office in charge of the area.

Disruption is peaceful as long as there is no violence or damage done. You could shut down all of the roads in a city with a protest and as long as there is no property damage, violence, verbal harassment and ambulance/fire engines are able to pass through then it's peaceful.

When a reporter asked what his inspiration was for declaring a national monument, he replied “I did what now? C’mon man. Where am I?”

The UK already passed a huge variety of strict weapon laws and now wants to crack down on peaceful protest for being slightly disruptive. Where is the line?
Food for thought. Putting peaceful climate protestors in prison for being mildly disruptive is itself disruptive.
From my POV it seems like the elites who own the economy are systematically pacifying the population and targeting who they perceive to be a threat viciously.

And by peaceful protestors they mean someone protesting at home, without contacting anyone, or going outside. Just chillin in their kitchen all mad and stuff.

I understand the moral aspect but this is a bad precedent imo. These aren't just solicitors saying they won't be hired by certain corporations but prosecutors. If they set the precedent that a barrister can refuse to prosecute a case for political reasons then you create partisan barristers which risks ruining the impartiality of the legal system.

These are barristers for the prosecution. Basically it's like if the state prosecutor said they wouldn't prosecute a case even if directed to.

It's a Dogo Argentino. They're a mastiff breed. Not a pitbull.

Disruptive describes literally every type of protest. Peaceful or otherwise.

I’m not commenting about the specifics of this Alaskan drilling. But in general the path to reducing oil consumption ironically needs us to maintain low oil prices and control the supply. Our economy is currently life-support-style dependent on oil and there’s no way we can transition to anything (good) without maintaining that.

Are there people protesting those? It sounds like you are making a straw man argument.
