Ideas
- a "festival" in the shape of the REFUGEE CAMP!
- "we are all climate refugees" (in 2030)
- "we" have CAUSED many people to be climate refugees already!
- send emails/letters to your "representative"!
- goal: create pressure on the politicians , by their "constituencies"
- least work for the "participants" (more for organising) : automate it all! (provide 1-5 drafts, like a petition), and provide the email addresses in the drop-down menu
- More work than petition, more impact than a tweet
- achieve _personal_ contact with the politician!
- something like this have helped with the action against ACTA/TTIP
- divest from the climate-destroying pension funds
- persuade royal family / princess-es to join XR ;-)
- MEMEs
- sea-shanty
- "chairman bernie"
- remote-controlled robot to poor water out of the canal into back the sea!
- projecting people's names onto the parliament (if they sign the petition...)
- Online STRIKE!
- "block" access to the fossil-fuel companies networks (office & website!)
- EVERYONE switches their _internet OFF_ for one day!!!
- A day/hour of mourning/grief - switch off the screen/turn all websites BLACK

OWNERSHIP of the Internet

June 2018 https://www.economist.com/special-report/2018/06/28/how-to-fix-what-has-gone-wrong-with-the-internet
the extensions the internet has spawned now greatly outweigh the original network: billions of smartphones and other devices, and cloud-computing factories the size of football fields, containing unimaginable quantities of data. http://lsolum.typepad.com/legaltheory/2018/06/pasquale-on-jeffersonian-hamiltonian-visions-of-tech-platforms.html
The political consequences of the internet’s growing centralisation are even more troublesome, if less obvious. https://www.economist.com/special-report/2018/06/30/there-is-no-single-solution-to-making-the-internet-more-decentralised
