Maybe its best to continue via PM

Don't be a twat.Just wondered if they even checked that the glue they used had no petroleum based chemicals or petrochemical derivatives.
Don't be a twat.
I hope this post makes the news, otherwise I feel your time may have been wastedI am assisting Just Stop Oil by spoiling this Urban75 post. The mess I've caused below is nothing compared to the destruction of our planet:

They're clearly absolute hypocrites then. I bet they got to the gallery via a train using diesel, or their bike tyres had petrochemical by-products in them.
We're stuck in a world where everything has got a cost to the environment for the benefits of profit. It doesn't mean you can't strive for better.
By choosing the correct glue?I don't subscribe to throwing soup at art...
Better ways to stop using oil...
By choosing the correct glue?
No shit. I've learnt something today.By knowing what they are using.
By understanding what petroleum is and where it is.
They're probably wearing clothes and shoes made from recycled plastic originally petrochemical based.
Petroleum / oil is in so much more of our everyday use...even if we dont use cars or any form of petrol powered engine/ turbine..
Our world is full of oil based products.
Oil, Natural Gas & You | CAPP
Oil and natural gas are an important part of everyone's daily lives.www.capp.ca
More than 6,000 everyday products get their start from oil, including dishwashing liquid, solar panels, food preservatives, eyeglasses, DVDs, children’s toys, tires and heart valves. Here are some of the common petroleum products that are an important part of our modern lifestyle.
Electronics
Due to insulating and heat resistant properties, plastics and other petroleum-based products are used in electronic components. From your speakers and smartphones to your computers, cameras, and televisions, most electronics have components derived from oil.
Textiles
Clothing is commonly made from petroleum-based fibers including acrylic, rayon, vegan leather, polyester, nylon and spandex. Even shoes and purses use petrochemicals for their lightweight, durable, and water resistant properties.
Sporting Goods
Many common sports equipment contains some petroleum including basketballs, golf balls and bags, football helmets, surfboards, skis, tennis rackets and fishing rods.
Health & Beauty Products
Many of our personal care products are derived from petroleum including perfume, hair dye, cosmetics (lipstick, makeup, foundation, eyeshadow, mascara, eyeliner), hand lotion, toothpaste, soap, shaving cream, deodorant, panty hose, combs, shampoo, eyeglasses, and contact lenses.
Medical Supplies
Modern health care relies on petroleum products that have few substitutes. Plastics are used in a wide-range of medical devices and petrochemicals are relied on for pharmaceuticals. Products include hospital equipment, IV bags, aspirin, antihistamines, artificial limbs, dentures, hearing aids, heart valves and many more.
Household Products
Our homes are full of products that used petroleum in their production. From construction materials such as roofing and housing insulation to linoleum flooring, furniture, appliances and home decor such as pillows, curtains, rugs, and house paint. Even many everyday kitchen items including dishes, cups, non-stick pans, and dish detergent use oil in their creation.

How Many Petroleum Products Did You Use Today?
No shit. I've learnt something today.
I look forward to seeing all those wonderful things float past me when I'm flooded by the inevitable rising sea water and think fondly of my non-stick pan when I hear of famines due to drought and floods.
What do you realistically suggest instead?
I can feel the sense of anger and frustration that these people have. We're literally looking at the deaths of millions, if not billions of people, total destruction of entire ecosystems, the collapse of civilisations, all for the profit of a few oil company execs, and it feels like no one gives a fuck.
No one else is doing shit, so I've got no right to criticise their actions, unless I'm stepping up and doing something better - which I'm not.
Yeh how dare people condemn putin without putting troops into the field themselvesWell there was this action: Just Stop Oil protesters spray Aston Martin showroom in London's Park Lane with orange paint
Which had they asked me, I would have advised leading with instead. I think trashing luxury cars is going to resonate with more people than splashing soup on a painting. The rich are going to be better cushioned from the effects of climate change after all, so this kind of action has the sense of redress about it. As opposed to what comes across as a feeble attempt to trash a painting by an artist who had nothing to do with climate change, and who is well-regarded by all sorts of people, not just the rich.
I also reject this idea that actions can't be criticised. If "no else is doing shit", then that doesn't justify crap actions that achieve nothing but grab some attention in a way that can be easily twisted into childish attention-seeking. You could justify doing anything by that kind of reasoning.
Throwing soup at a Van Gogh does seem uniquely pathetic.These people must be paid stooges for oil companies. There is no other explanation for these fucking absurd 'actions'. If their whole point is that oil is everywhere, then it shouldn't be hard to pick a legitimate fucking target should it? Pretty much anything really. Anything except the cultural heritage of the civilisation they claim to be trying to protect. Twats.

There's a lot of things you're not sure onI’m not sure that someone condemning Putin by e.g. flicking water at their cat should be immune to criticism.
That "seeecurity?" Makes me laugh every time.
Reddit loves these folks,,,
The Aston martin protest actually makes some sense...Reception to that one was a bit better.
Shut the Dartford Crossing now.
I guess having people suspended over fast moving traffic is seen as some kind of health and safety risk by the woke brigade.I’m not sure how they did that. They’re high up on it, aren’t they?
I guess they could fall off and land on a car…
