How much extra pollution did they cause creating a situation where everyone is sitting in their idling cars? Because I tell you what, just for spite, I wouldn't be shutting my car off. I might consider burning my spare tire.
Also, video about half way down is pretty funny. Protestors are screaming about how it's unsafe to tow a vehicle (that they were using to block an intersection) with someone laying on top of it. Climb down off the vehicle and it won't be unsafe, dumb dumb. I was pleasantly surprised to see the DC cops ignore them and tow the thing. :laugh:

That bee girl in the one video should be talking to the guy behind her in the crosswalk so she can learn some moves!!! :)

'Extinction Rebellion?'
Didn't Tom Clancy write a book about eco-whackos creating a biological weapon to wipe out every human who wasn't hand selected to receive a vaccine?

Didn't some state pass a law a couple of years ago removing liability from drivers who run over someone deliberately blocking a public road?

Whether on not some state did, you can be sure DC didn't.

Not the only one. James Tiptree, Jr. ""The Last Flight of Dr. Ain" in Warm Worlds and Otherwise" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warm_Worlds_and_Otherwise) (Gaea worshiper spreads disease to kill everyone). Also a subplot in Brad Lineweaver's Moon of Ice (https://www.amazon.com/Moon-Ice-Brad-Linaweaver/dp/0812520203) (evil genius plots to wipe out non-Aryans, probably looses interest). And, come to think of it, Matt Ruff, Sewer, Gas and Electric (https://www.amazon.com/Sewer-Gas-Electric-Public-Trilogy/dp/0802141552) (evil AI plots to wipe out humanity, test it by wiping out black africans).

These "activists" are so damn annoying. Thankfully I do not have to deal with them anymore!!
I have been to so many of these protests; more than many of the professional activists. I have arrested hundreds of these knuckleheads at the White House and other places in DC.
August 23, 2011 Margot Kidder was arrested at the WH protesting Keystone XL Pipeline. She was unhappy to be herded into the prisoner bus with the rest of the useful idiots, demanding special accommodations based on her status as a movie starlet! In the bus she went. She had to wait in the processing line with the rest of the peasants.
When her turn came to start processing, the first table was for identification. The officer asked for a name and if the arrestee had ID. Once that sheet was filled, the arrestee was herded to the property station to be divested of stuff.
At the ID table, Margot Kidder got snotty with the officer asking questions. I will never forget the exchange:
"What's your name?"
"What do you mean? You know who I am."
"No, what's your name?"
"Margot Kidder, you know, Lois Lane..... who the *expletive deleted*ck did you think I was?"
"Ummmm.... Sarah Palin."
Ms. Kidder/Lane/Palin was not pleased.

As a tangent, some of these people (and voters) actually think they're going to die in ten years, to the point of being hysterical.

Not to mention the way people have twisted up that Greta Thunberg kid. She's going to still be alive ten years from now and thirty years from now, and will likely be needing intense therapy.

Greta has Asperger's, and you can see some of that in her mannerisms.

Clancy was *expletive deleted*ing clairvoyant.
As was Crichton with "State of Fear"

Wow!
"For more than thirty years, the science has been crystal clear."
Sorry, Ms. Thunberg, but the science has not been crystal clear for thirty years. At least, not the science you're talking about. In fact, IIRC it was about thirty years ago that they were warning that a new ice age was coming -- then, almost overnight, instead of an ice age it became global warming. Then, when that didn't work either, it became "climate change."
And they're still cooking the books.

The evidence for 400,000 years (not merely thirty years) is that there are wide variations in global temperatures, some of them pretty regular, and sampling temps for only the past 200 years does not tell you anything. Try a sample of 100,000 years --as a minimal sample size.
(https://armedpolitesociety.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.antarcticglaciers.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F07%2FVostok_420ky_4curves_insolation_to_2004.jpg&hash=a4aab81cc935a890047915c900573b03ec116b7e)
The major regular variations of about 80,000 years are what is crystal-clear even to the naked unsophisticated eyeball. And, as pointed out, I personally recall predictions decades ago that we were heading into a new ice age.
As I've said before, "It's your sample size. Call me in 50,000 years and let me know how things look then."

When I was in school in the 80's, I remember being told about the global warming theory (along with Save the Whales and similar stuff). There were people studying it who believed it was happening when they had no evidence whatsoever. I don't remember the ice age thing. I think that idea was from the 1970's.
What is really amounts to is they haven't really come up with any new evidence in the last 20 years and I don't see their predictions getting any better.

There was a Hollywood movie. by one of the major studios, about a coming ice age. I didn't see it and I don't remember the title, but I remember the trailer. It showed a scene in which a bunch of people had to go outdoors to get from one building to another. One of the protagonists warned everyone not to touch anything metal so, of course, somebody grabbed onto a metal handrail and his or her hand instantly froze to the metal.

I'm sure there were a lot more, but I found one called "Quintet" that is about a bleak dystopian future with an ice age.
(You can describe a lot of 70's movies with "It was a movie about a bleak dystopian future with a ________ (Fill in the blank)")

They present statistical models as evidence.
When "scientists" started believing probabilities have ontology I don't know. ie probabilities don't actually exist and are only guesses at potential reality.
But continuing to call them scientists sure muddies the water on what is actually science.
For thirty years it's been crystal clear that "scientists" have been constructing models to influence and scare the public.
To date their models have accomplished their purpose, despite not agreeing with actual observed reality.
-
If they dropped the "true believer" nonsense and the political stunts, they could probably create some pretty accurate models, but those wouldn't scare anyone.

Yes. She's autistic1 and being manipulated by people for an agenda.
Here's a nice little primer about it:

I read some interesting stuff about how her type of autism will "laser focus" a person on a particular thing, putting blinders on to anything else. That one thing must be solved at all costs. It was suggested that in a way, her parents and whoever else is manipulating her in effect "weaponized" her on this climate apocalypse stuff. Hence my earlier comment that at some point, after the world turns out to be ok, she will likely need some kind of therapy.
Imagine having parents that tell you not to bother going to school because the world will end before you're an adult.

Then it's her parents that are creepy
Very sad story, didn't know that she was actually autistic.

I think there was a movie with Chris Evans that was supposed to be a sort of sequel to Day After Tomorrow. Snowpiercer.

Never seen it, but it could be one also.
I can't think of any other ice age movies that would have a scene like that.
-
Plot sounds a little off.
"Set in 2031, the entire world is frozen except for those aboard the Snowpiercer. For seventeen years, the world's survivors are on a train hurtling around the globe creating their own economy and class system. Led by Curtis (Chris Evans), a group of lower-class citizens living in squalor at the back of the train are determined to get to the front of the train and spread the wealth around. Each section of the train holds new surprises for the group who have to battle their way through. A revolution is underway."

Snowpiercer is a strange flick, but it's not really a climate change flick. More a dystopian class struggle flick. There's an interesting theory out that it's a sequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory actually.
It's also not the flick you're thinking of, although there is a scene where a guys hand is frozen off as punishment.

Pennywise Now Frightening Children With Presentation On Climate Change
(https://babylonbee.com/img/articles/article-4864-1.jpg)
“I don’t know what to tell them,” said climate change activist Horace Malone, “but the evil clown has a point. YOU’RE ALL GONNA DIE, CHILDREN! ALL OF YOU! HAHAHAHAHAHA!”
And the end quote:
Seven adult misfits have vowed to stop Pennywise, though. Decades ago, the clown had gone after them as children, though the presentation he frightened them with back then was on acid rain and a hole in the ozone layer.

No, what I have in mind was definitely a movie, not a "documentary." And I'm fairly certain that it was for the big screen, not a made-for-television movie.
