Rebeldes indignados luchan contra la destrucción del medio ambiente
Rebeldes indignados is a collective Ecosocial-aniespecist (or eco-anhisocial) created from Ex-Mentidos de la rebelión científica colectiva climática (RC) in Spain, following Controversias en el colectivo mencionado en animales in July 2024.
Rebeldes indignados is a Meta-mişcare fighting against Negialismo, fragmentation, and authoritarianism within and outside of Ecosocial movements that are silent on the main responses to the largest climate and ecological crisis in history.
Over twenty Spanish and international organizations have signed an open letter promoted by Rebeldes indignados asking Major environmental entities and other Ecosocial movements, as well as the climate, People in the scientific field and public outreach to Mediate with other Sociopolitical actors to stop Silencing the main Responses to the climate and ecological crisis: Transition to plant-based diets and Deep decrease.
Ecoticias.com clearly rejects the statements of the outraged rebels as «tendentious», Neither now nor have kept silent «the information a «toast in the sun» unfair statements and without any indication of veracity despite this We publish this «letter» as we always have and will continue to do so so All opinions harmlessly and the reader «forms» with total freedom.
Open letter to large environmental NGOs and media -Media
The «humanity» and life on earth is facing The greatest crisis and crossroads in history the climate and ecological, This poses a possible Ecosocial collapse and a threat of disappearance in this century In case A scenario of disappearance to which the total number of governments of the world, included, is shown otherwise as measured in the best cosmetic cases and in the worst cases, contrary to everything that could reduce the already inevitable climate catastrophe: Increased Animal-based food products, fossil fuels, extractivism, and extreme excesses, everything that leads us to an imminent abyss.
In the words of Antonio Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, We have «the foot on the accelerator on the road to climate hell» and disappearance.
In view of this situation, we have, on the one hand, a rise in Pure and hard climate Negialism and on the other hand some Ecological, climate, and ecosocial groups that ignore the main problems and measures how can we call it «Eco-negial» which is And more dangerous because it prevents society from knowing the problem and the solutions and descends the space for a true revolution and changes.
This silence on Main measures to respond to the crisis are first Transition to plant-based diets and second Deep decrease in all consumption, extractivism, production, transportation, urbanization, and land occupation.
The transition to plant-based diets comes before the transition to energy and circular economy
This is recognized by a hundred institutional reports and has recently been acknowledged by one of the most Respected climate scientists in the world Johan Rockström, who stated clearly in an interview that The transition to plant-based diets is the most urgent measure and comes before the transition to energy and circular economy.
The IPCC itself recognizes the utmost importance of both issues, Diet change and decrease as primary measures before Climate changes as can be seen in the initial leaked version of the 2021 report summary, which was ultimately censored due to the influence of food and fossil fuels. (See point C4.4 on page 20 about diet and points C4.2, 4.3, and 4.5 on page 20 for decrease, where they emphasize that Demand-centered options, i.e., diet change and reduced consumption, could reduce emissions by 50 to 80%, being the most powerful measures.)
The food industry exploiting animals
This is because, as a hundred top-level reports state, The animal food industry is the first cause of planetary boundaries., Climate change, mass extinctions, destruction of forests and oceans that regulate the Earth’s climate and are the main solution to climate change, as well as Global pollution, water depletion, human health issues, food insecurity, and extreme animal abuse.
This industry consumes 80% of global agriculture, over a third of the living room, and is the main source of compensation, as well as over 55% of oceans, of which only 0.5% are protected, and even in protected areas of the EU, with very few exceptions, human activity is allowed in the most destructive ways.
According to the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, meat has 4 times more impact than commercial aviation, and the transition to diets would be between 4 and 40 times more efficient than energy efficiency and circular economy.
The type of animals with multiple impacts on Climate change and biodiversity is Extinction, as clearly stated in the scientific consensus literature but not systematically Defended by most environmental movements that are Engaged in animal lobby work and their scientific misinformation.
The animal food industry is the leading back force behind 5 out of 6 planetary boundaries we are currently surpassing (out of a total of 9): CC, biodiversity, land use, water, nitrogen, and phosphorus; The sixth innovative entities are related to hundreds of thousands of chemicals, more indirectly related to fossil fuels, except for plastic, indicating the need to move away from fuels.
Vegan diet
Aberrant slavery of animals Therefore, aims to support a Biocide, ecocide, and genocide food system It is also the main source of human health issues and inequality.
Almost a hundred reports agree that the vegan diet would be the most beneficial for both the ecological and climate crisis, as well as for human health and, obviously, for exploited and exterminated non-human animals.
The IPCC believes that the vegan diet has three times more impact than the Mediterranean diet in reducing GHG emissions and stopping the climate crisis.
Regarding «Climate change» ecological movements call for an «End Fossil fuels» but Nothing is said about what would be necessary to end them.
It is impossible to do it with Energy transition due to its well-known limitations (a large part of industry and transportation today cannot function with it), until non-awakening production and recycling (depending on rare and fossil fuels), in its serious environmental impact, its slowdown, and its very high costs, being a very partial measure and, above all, a new activity.
The only effective way to end fossil fuels Is the aforementioned? Deep decrease in all sectors of consumption, production, extraction, and waste: urbanization and housing, transportation, and manufacturing (household items, clothing, appliances, and new technologies).
This Deep decrease cannot consist of a couple of Cosmetic patches like having an electric car and renewable energy at home, You have to go associated with a Deep systemic change in dominant ways of life and industrialized we must start privileged individuals in the global north, learning from the numerous indigenous communities on Earth (whose essential role is increasingly recognizable), towards an Earth decolonization.
The taboo of overpopulation
In relation to this, it is not acceptable to evade The taboo of overpopulation which we must bring to the table of democratic, anti-racist, anti-colonial, anti-patriarchal, transformational, and LGBTQI-inclusive perspectives, demonstrating reproductive heteropatriarchy.
These measures can be implemented by individuals without the hindrance of current Lobbycracy governments and businesses. But Individual and collective action is impossible if the silence and heart of the problem and solutions are not known.
It is unacceptable for these key issues to be absent in requests to governments and complaints against companies and billionaire elites.
These are the problems that must appear large and clear, at the epicenter of any public debate and campaigns, across the spectrum of ecosocial struggle, according to the outraged rebels.
More than 100 environmental organizations have denounced that The big five have left us alone in the fight against industrial photovoltaic and wind farms expanding our territory, destroying the soil.
Today, It is urgent to denounce even more strongly, for these organizations to justify activities that threaten the most vibrant future, the most harmful to the earth and all its inhabitants.
«Hidden at first sight» report
In the «Hidden at first sight» report in the animal room of animal in ecosocial movements the severity and complexity of this issue and its motivations, which have to do with the fatal alliance of these movements with the «field», which led to the defense movement. The most toxic in the extended animal industries in terms of fear of touching Taboo of diet to avoid losing subsidies and grants, as well as human supremacy and speculation and Lack of will of well-off activists from rich countries to challenge their privileges attitudes that are camped in almost all sectors of ecosocial movements, in which a deep new intersection crossing social, ecological, and anti-speciesist struggles is urgent, stating that they are inseparable.
Also, although Extended farmers have copied their discourse in the environmental movement it cannot be said that there is reciprocity, because the field, except for rare exceptions, generally rejects any Serious ecology.
The outraged rebels call on all large and small environmental, climate, and social organizations, as well as scientific disseminators, to Mediate to abandon this climate Negialism and criminal silence and Stop hiding or speaking with a small voice about these problems which are The key measures for the greatest crisis in history and cannot be silenced for another minute.
