But how is that action going to stop the water from rising. I am too very much concerned with climate change but I don't see much point in those actions. They don't really bring anything to the table nor have any impact on the matter, apart from antagonizing people to the issue perhaps.
The point of their action is to show people's hypocrisy and to make people angry at the leaders of the world who will call it a scandal while they're doing nothing about the destruction of the world itself.
It looks like the goal will be more people getting pissed at the climate activists. Which will make it harder for those who are actually doing something more then just publicity stunts.
