What is Extinction Rebellion?

Extinction Rebellion (XR) is an international movement that uses non-violent civil disobedience in an attempt to halt mass extinction and minimise the risk of social collapse. Our strategy is rooted in evidence, following the principle that disruption is needed in order to be noticed, to change the conversation and achieve systemic change. Find out more on the XR website.

Anyone can join XR by getting involved in your local group or joining Rebellions - sign up here or explore where you fit in with our quiz.
