Total BS propaganda, ugly, negative, not permaculture and completely wrong.

Steve Hart is giving the Permaculture movement a bad name. He besmirched
this list and has been banned permanently from it.
He is an ignorant, ill-educated, ill-informed troublemaker trying to turn
Permaculture into a political movement, essentially throwing obstacles in
the path of those interested in adopting Permaculture in their lives.
You would have to be a complete fool to take anything he says or does
seriously. I really regret I allowed him to post to this list. He couldn't
even get along with Toby Hemenway.
He is a serious liability for the Permaculture movement and should be
isolated well away from those wanting to take Permaculture in a forward
direction.

Triumph for Extinction Rebellion as protests spark huge surge in ‘climate
change’ web traffic
Group apologises for disruption but says demonstrations were ‘hugely
successful’

Extinction Rebellion
<https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/extinction-rebellion> activists have
hailed their protests in London as a “huge success” after data suggested
they caused a five-fold increase in online searches for climate change
<https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/climate-change>.

The demonstrations, which began on 15 April, saw activists shut down major
roads and bridges in the capital for over a week, resulting in more than
1,000 arrests.

Ten days later, members of the organisation glued themselves to the London
Stock Exchange
<https://www.independent.co.uk/environment/extinction-rebellion-protest-london-stock-exchange-glue-climate-change-latest-a8885296.html>
and
the Treasury in the capital’s financial heartland as the protests were
brought to a close.

The protest provoked howls of outrage from climate change deniers, and
politicians including Boris Johnson, who described the protesters as
hypocritical, “smug, irritating and disruptive”.
<https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-extinction-rebellion-climate-change-protests-arrests-a8881176.html>
Home
secretary Sajid Javid said police should “take a firm stance and use the
full force of the law
<https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/extinction-rebellion-protests-met-police-sajid-javid-arrests-climate-change-london-a8876526.html>”
against
them.

However, data collected from Google Trends
<https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?cat=16&date=today%205-y&geo=GB&q=climate%20change,extinction%20rebellion>
indicates
the group succeeded in raising public awareness about what they call “an
unprecedented global emergency”.

The analytics tool, which assigns search terms a popularity score out of
100 based on usage over a defined period, shows searches for ‘climate
change’ and ‘Extinction Rebellion’ exploded at around the time the protests
began.

In the week leading up to the protest, from 7 to 13 April, the term
“climate change” was assigned a relative score of 13, while “Extinction
Rebellion” was assigned a score of five.
