Climate Activists Tear Up Yard At Trinity College, Accusing School Of “Destruction Of Nature”

The best way to save the earth is to vandalize it, according to idiots.

The BBC recently reported that the Cambridge University chapter of Extinction Rebellion, a climate activist group composed of waterheaded college students, took it upon themselves to dig up a lawn at Trinity College in order to…protest…climate…things. Or something.

According to the article:

“Activists then took dug-up mud to a local Barclays Bank branch…A spokeswoman for Barclays Bank confirmed activists carrying wheelbarrows full of mud had spread it across the banking hall of its St Andrew’s Street branch.”

Why these environmental shitwits decided to drop off mud at a nearby bank isn’t really clear; the article doesn’t state the purpose, but considering these students’ uncanny lunacy, I wouldn’t be surprised if “upsetting the neighborhood capitalist system” was a part of it.

“Activists, who also chained themselves to an apple tree on the college’s front lawn, said they ‘were careful to ensure that the digging took place a safe distance from the tree so as not to cause any damage to it’.”
