Extinction Rebellion (XR) is a leaderless environmental activist collective. Recently, “accidentally distributed draft” UK government documents branded XR as an Extremist group. Jack’s guest Zion Lights is a spokesperson for Extinction Rebellion-UK who, as a vegan mother of two who has never learned to drive, is neither dangerous nor extreme. She is however quite smart and very concerned about the environment. Jack and Zion discuss some possible avenues, and potential problems, facing environmental activism.
