Also - in 2023 - if you really want to be an eco terrorist, you should be terrorising china, and most of asia. They are increasing their carbon emissions like there's no tomorrow.

Frankly, nothing the EU or the USA is doing at this point will matter, if Asia carries on doing what they are doing.

So these motorway blocking and paint throwing stunts are not only ridiculous narcissistic acts, that do more damage than good to the reputation of this whole eco activist movement, they are also completely useless in terms of CO2 reduction.

We need to either invent technology (which we are) to reduce emissions, or even extract them for the air, OR we need some crazy form of diplomacy to stop Asia from growing (this is called war btw).

It really is laughable that China is never part of the equation for these save the planet types.
